Albert Camus was a formative artist, writer and public figure whose
work defies conventional labels, and whose legacy is controversial
but substantial. His distinctive contribution to modern ethical and
political thought remains far from settled. Camus and the Challenge
of Political Thought comprehensively yet concisely explores how
Camus's compelling ideas of absurdity and rebellion emerged, how
his complex political engagements and positions developed, and how
his conception of an ethics of limits and measure retains a vital,
contemporary resonance in an era of unsettling global politics.
Drawing upon the full range of Camus's notebooks, novels, plays and
philosophical essays, Hayden shows Camus to be an original
political thinker of human dignity and freedom whose life and work
sought to navigate between the twin dangers of idealistic optimism
and nihilistic despair.
