Politics of Fear, Practices of Hope is about the relationship
between two hugely influential ideas in political life: fear and
hope. How are cultures of resistance nurtured within an environment
of paranoia and social paralysis? Stefan Skrimshire argues that
grass-roots responses to a politics of fear coincide with an
explosion of interest in the quasi-religious themes of apocalypse,
eschatology and utopia in cultural life. Where visions of a better
future are replaced by the acceptance of a fearful present - a
state of 'war with no end' - this is an important examination of
the beliefs that underpin our capacity to hope.
