Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
About the AuthorTodd May is Professor of Philosophy at Clemson University. He is the author of five previous books published by Penn State Press: Between Genealogy and Epistemology: Psychology, Politics, and Knowledge in the Thought of Michel Foucault (1993); The Political Philosophy of PostStructuralist Anarchism (1994); The Moral Theory of Poststructuralism (1995); Reconsidering Difference: Nancy, Derrida, Levinas, Deleuze (1997); and Our Practices, Our Selves: Or, What It Means To Be Human (2001).Product DescriptionThis book examines the political perspective of French thinker and historian Jacques Rancire. Rancire argues that a democratic politics emerges out of peoples acting under the presupposition of their own equality with those better situated in the social hierarchy. Todd May examines and extends this presupposition, offering a normative framework for understanding it, placing it in the current political context, and showing how it challenges traditional political philosophy and opens up neglected political paths. He demonstrates that the presupposition of equality orients political action around those who act on their own behalfand those who act in solidarity with themrather than, as with the political theories of John Rawls, Robert Nozick, and Amartya Sen, those who distribute the social goods. As May argues, Rancires view offers both hope and perspective for those who seek to think about and engage in progressive political action.ReviewMays is the first booklength study of one of contemporary Europes most important thinkers, but more than this, it is also a radical engagement with some of the fundamental questions raised by political philosophy today.Philip Watts, Columbia University
