This book focuses on a central notion in Theodor. W. Adorno's
philosophy: the nonidentical. The nonidentical is what our
conceptual framework cannot grasp and must therefore silence, the
unexpressed other of our rational engagement with the world. This
study presents the nonidentical as the multidimensional centerpiece
of Adorno's reflections on subjectivity, truth, suffering, history,
art, morality and politics, revealing the intimate relationship
between how and what we think. Adorno's work, written in the shadow
of Auschwitz, is a quest for a different way of thinking, one that
would give the nonidentical a voice - as the somatic in reasoning,
the ephemeral in truth, the aesthetic in cognition, the other in
society. Adorno's philosophy of the nonidentical reveals itself not
only as a powerful hermeneutics of the past, but also as an
important tool for the understanding of modern phenomena such as
xenophobia, populism, political polarization, identity politics,
and systemic racism.
