Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
DalmatianAustrian philosopher, Roman Catholic priest, and radical cultural critic Ivan Illich is best known for polemical writings such as Deschooling Society and Tools for Conviviality, which decried Western institutions of the 1970s. This collection brings together Illichs shorter writings from his early publications through the rise of his remarkable intellectual career, making available works that had fallen into undue obscurity.A fervent critic of Western Catholicism, Illich also addressed contemporary practices in fields from education and medicine to labor and socioeconomic development. At the heart of his work is his opposition to the imperialistic nature of state and Churchsponsored missionary activities. His deep understanding of Church history, particularly the institutions of the thirteenth century, lent a historians perspective to his critique of the Church and other twentiethcentury institutions.The Powerless Church and Other Selected Writings, 19551985 comprises some of Illichs most salient and influential short works as well as a foreword by philosopher Giorgio Agamben. Featuring writings that had previously appeared in nowdefunct publications, this volume is an indispensable resource for readers of Illichs longer works and for scholars of philosophy, religion, and cultural critique.
