Critical Theory And Independent Living

de Teodor Mladenov

~~121,97€~~ 109,77€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 <i>Critical theory and Independent Living</i> explores intersections between contemporary critical theory and disabled people’s struggle for self-determination. The book highlights the affinities between the Independent Living movement and studies of epistemic injustice, biopower, and psychopower. It discusses in depth the activists’ critical engagement with welfare-state paternalism, neoliberal marketisation, and familialism. This helps develop a pioneering comparison between various welfare regimes grounded in Independent Living advocacy. The book draws on the activism of disabled people from the European Network on Independent Living (ENIL) by developing case studies of the ENIL’s campaigning for deinstitutionalisation and personal assistance. It is argued that this work helps rethink independence as a form of interdependence, and that this reframing is pivotal for critical theorising in the twenty-first century.

Critical Theory And International Relations - Knowledge, Power And Practice

de Stephen Hobden

121,97€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Critical theory is one of the most important and exciting areas within the study of international relations. Its purpose is not only to describe how the world operates but also to help us imagine how we might achieve a more equitable and sustainable way of life. Presenting key concepts and thinkers, notably Theodor Adorno and Michel Foucault, this book provides an evaluation of the field and suggests how critical thinking can contribute to confronting the challenges of the twenty-first century. It argues that current critiques of critical theory in international relations can only be overcome if we engage with ideas from outside of the western tradition.

Critical Theory And Libertarian Socialism - Realizing The Political Potential Of Critical Social Theory

de Charles Masquelier

46,49€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This volume in the Critical Theory and Contemporary Society series examines the role critical theory plays in today''s political, social, and economic crises, showing how it can help to both diagnose and remedy such problems.<br/> Critical social theory is first revisited by exposing the affinity between Marx''s critique of political economy, the critique of instrumental reason elaborated by the first generation of the Frankfurt School, and the libertarian socialism of G.D.H. Cole. This is followed by a proposal for a radical reorganization of economic and political life and the corresponding development of emancipatory practices presupposing the reconciliation of humanity and nature. Lastly, the contemporary relevance of these institutions and practices are discussed, along with cases of contemporary forms of resistance, such as the Occupy Movement and alter-globalisation.<br/> By bringing together the concerns of critical theory and libertarian socialism, this volume not only illustrates the practical side of critical theory, but also highlights its contemporary relevance. Researchers in political theory, social theory and political philosophy will find this an engaging work that will stimulate debates about new alternatives to existing problems.

Critical Theory And The Critique Of Political Economy - On Subversion And Negative Reason

de Werner Bonefeld

46,49€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Subversive thought is none other than the cunning of reason when confronted with a social reality in which the poor and miserable are required to sustain the illusion of fictitious wealth. Yet, this subsidy is absolutely necessary in existing society, to prevent its implosion. The critique of political economy is a thoroughly subversive business. It rejects the appearance of economic reality as a natural thing, argues that economy has not independent existence, expounds economy as political economy, and rejects as conformist rebellion those anti-capitalist perspectives that derive their rationality from the existing conceptuality of society. Subversion focuses on human conditions. Its critical subject is society unaware of itself. This book develops Marx''s critique of political economy as negative theory of society. It does not conform to the patterns of the world and demands that society rids itself of all the muck of ages and founds itself anew.
