This volume, the first sustained critical work on the French
political philosopher Etienne Balibar, collects essays by sixteen
prominent philosophers, psychoanalysts, anthropologists,
sociologists, and literary critics who each identify, define, and
explore a central concept in Balibar's thought. The result is a
hybrid lexicon-engagement that makes clear the depth and importance
of Balibar's contribution to the most urgent topics in contemporary
thought. The book shows the continuing vitality of materialist
thought across the humanities and social sciences and will be
fundamental for understanding the philosophical bases of the
contemporary left critique of globalization, neoliberalism, and the
articulation of race, racism, and economic exploitation.
