What is maturity? Politics of Maturity scrutinizes the process of
maturing and how—and why—we have traditionally conceptualized
it. Why is it that when we picture an “adult” we often envision
someone who is married, has children, and is economically
successful? Tanya Loughead challenges such traditional notions of
maturity by raising fundamental questions about society and its
structure. Which structures and experiences help us to mature or
block us from maturing? One thing is certain: we do not mature by
ourselves. This book argues that lack of maturity in society is not
merely a problem of individual personalities; it is equally a
political and philosophical problem that requires revolutionary
rethinking and redefinition.
