Unstable universalities, available for the first time in paperback,
examines the theme of universality and its place in radical
political theory. Saul Newman argues that both Marxist politics of
class struggle and the postmodern politics of difference have
reached their historical and political limits, and that what is
needed is a new approach to universality, a new way of thinking
about collective politics. By exploring various themes and ideas
within poststructuralist and post-Marxist theory, the book develops
a new and original approach to universality - one that has
important implications for politics today, particularly on
questions of power, subjectivity, ethics and democracy. In so
doing, it engages in debates with thinkers such as Laclau, Zizek,
Badiou and Ranciere over the future of radical politics. It also
applies important theoretical insights to contemporary events such
as the emergence of the anti-globalisation movement, the 'war on
terrorism', the rise of anti-immigrant racism, and the nihilistic
violence which lurks at the margins of the political. -- .
