Seyla Benhabib’s ongoing work has expanded the range and scope of
critical theory beyond its origins to address questions of gender,
migration, and difference. This book brings together an ensemble of
leading theorists and younger voices to explore new dimensions of
Benhabib’s thought across critical theory, feminism, and
democratic theory, foregrounding the intricate relationship between
critique and universality. Another Universalism provides both a
wide-ranging and comprehensive engagement with Benhabib’s
path-breaking interventions and a panoramic tour of the cutting
edge of critical theory today. Contributors take part in key
debates about the field’s past and future, tackling subjects such
as the relationship between democracy and cosmopolitanism, the role
of law in emancipatory struggles, human domination of nature, the
deprovincialization of critical theory concerning questions of race
and empire, as well as Hannah Arendt’s continuing significance.
Covering a wide range of debates and themes, Another Universalism
is united by a core question: How can universal norms of human
freedom, equality, and dignity be reconciled with particular
contexts, especially ones of exclusion, difference, and adversity?
Searching for universalisms that emerge from the concrete struggles
of emancipatory movements, this book points toward an expansive,
inclusive, and radical democratic vision.
