Revolting Subjects is a groundbreaking account of social abjection
in contemporary Britain, exploring how particular groups of people
are figured as revolting and how they in turn revolt against their
abject subjectification. The book utilizes a number of high-profile
and in-depth case studies - including 'chavs', asylum seekers,
Gypsies and Travellers, and the 2011 London riots - to examine the
ways in which individuals negotiate restrictive neoliberal
ideologies of selfhood. In doing so, Tyler argues for a deeper
psychosocial understanding of the role of representational forms in
producing marginality, social exclusion and injustice, whilst also
detailing how stigmatization and scapegoating are resisted through
a variety of aesthetic and political strategies. Imaginative and
original, Revolting Subjects introduces a range of new insights
into neoliberal societies, and will be essential reading for those
concerned about widening inequalities, growing social unrest and
social justice in the wider global context.
