商品簡介
"An extraordinary volume that provides nothing less than a detailed cognitive mapping of the terrain for everyone who wants to engage in radical politics."Slavoj Žižek
"From its thought-provoking Introduction though its energizing accounts of the tensions underlying our most prized concepts,Keywords for Radicals will be indispensable to any scholar or activist who is serious about critique and change."Stephen Duncombe
In Keywords (1976), Raymond Williams devised a "vocabulary" that reflected the vast social transformations of the post-war period. He revealed how these transformations could be grasped by investigating changes in word usage and meaning.Keywords for Radicalspart homage, part developmentasks what vocabulary might illuminate the social transformations marking our own contested present? How do these words define the imaginary of today's radical left?
With insights from dozens of scholars and troublemakers, Keywords for Radicalsexplores the words that shape our political landscape. Each entry highlights a term's contested variations, traces the evolution of its usage, and speculates about what its historical mutations can tell us. More than a glossary, this is a crucial study of the power of language and the social contradictions hidden within it.
Contributors include Patrick Bond, Silvia Federici, John Bellamy Foster, Joy James, Ilan Pappé, Justin Podur, Nina Power, Mab Segrest, and more.
Kelly Fritsch is a Banting Postdoctoral Fellow in Women and Gender Studies at the University of Toronto.
