The Future of Difference - Beyond the Toxic Entanglement of Racism, Sexism and Feminism

Author(s): Sabine Hark; Paula-Irene Villa; Sophie Anne Lewis (Translator)

Culture and Society

The Future of Difference examines the way contemporary regimes of power engage in the violent production of difference. In this moment, the logic of 'other and rule' thoroughly permeates the social and the political; our contemporary condition is increasingly premised on endless subtle hierarchical distinctions, which determine whole populations' attitudes, feelings, and actions. Hark and Villa make a compelling case for the detoxification of public and political discourse, in favour of an ethical mode of living with the world, which means living with plurality and alterity.
