Spinoza's political thought has been subject to a significant
revival of interest in recent years. As a response to difficult
times, students and scholars have returned to this founding figure
of modern philosophy as a means to help reinterpret and rethink the
political present. Spinoza's Authority Volume I: Resistance and
Power in Ethics makes a significant contribution to this ongoing
reception and utilization of Spinoza's political thought by
focusing on his posthumously published Ethics. By taking the
concept of authority as an original framework, this books asks: How
is authority related to ethics, ontology, and epistemology? What
are the social, historical and representational processes that
produce authority and resistance? And what are the conditions of
effective resistance? Spinoza's Authority features a roster of
internationally established theorists of Spinoza's work, and covers
key elements of Spinoza's political philosophy, including:
questions of authority, the resistance to authority, sovereign
power, democratic control, and the role of Spinoza's "multitudes".
