    When Francis Fukuyama declared that the fall of the Berlin Wall meant the end of history, what he really seemed to mean was that it was the end of the radical intellectual--what is there to protest if the world is a benign democracy of green lawns and barbecues? Through interviews with some of America's and Europe's leading, and most radical, left-leaning intellectuals, Peter Osborne demonstrates that as long as there are institutionalized inequities, the place of the radical intellectual is assured. These men and women are astute thinkers, and their insights into the underlying problems that plague modern society are insightful and edifying, regardless of one's own political leanings.

  • Product Description

    A Critical Sense brings together, in their own words, the leading figures of contemporary radical theory. Marxism, feminism, psychoanalysis and critical theory, literary studies, deconstruction, pragmatism, postcolonial and queer theory are discussed in a series of interviews from the journal Radical Philosophy. The intellectuals at the center of these debates are: Judith Butler, Corneliu Castoriadis, Drucilla Cornell, Axel Honneth, Istvan Meszaros, Edward Said, Renata Salecl, Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, Cornel West, and Slavoj Zizek. "Sparkling with intelligence and humour, [this is] one of the best introductions I know to what really matters in the intellectual life of our time." Bruce Robbins, Professor of English and Comparative Literature, Rutgers University
