If we see that our contemporary condition is one of war and widely
diffused complexity, how do we understand our most basic ethical
motivations? What might be the aims of our political activity? A
War on People takes up these questions and offers a glimpse of a
possible alternative future in this ethnographically and
theoretically rich examination of the activity of some unlikely
political actors: users of heroin and crack cocaine, both active
and former. The result is a groundbreaking book on how anti-drug
war political activity offers transformative processes that are
termed worldbuilding and enacts nonnormative, open, and
relationally inclusive alternatives to such key concepts as
community, freedom, and care. Read the author's article about the
opiod crisis on Open Democracy.
