The sixtieth anniversary edition of Frantz Fanon's landmark text,
now with a new introduction by Cornel WestFirst published in 1961,
and reissued in this sixtieth anniversary edition with a powerful
new introduction by Cornel West, Frantz Fanon's The Wretched of the
Earth is a masterfuland timeless interrogation of race,
colonialism, psychological trauma, and revolutionary struggle, and
a continuing influence on movements from Black Lives Matter to
decolonization. A landmark text for revolutionaries and activists,
The Wretched of the Earth is an eternal touchstone for civil
rights, anti-colonialism, psychiatric studies, and Black
consciousness movements around the world. Alongside Cornel West's
introduction, the book features critical essays by Jean-Paul Sartre
and Homi K. Bhabha. This sixtieth anniversary edition of Fanon's
most famous text stands proudly alongside such pillars of
anti-colonialism and anti-racism as Edward Said's Orientalism and
The Autobiography of Malcolm X.
'May you live in interesting times' was made famous by Sir Austen
Chamberlain. The premise is that 'interesting times' are times of
upheaval, conflict and insecurity - troubled times. With the
growing numbers of displaced populations and the rise in the
politics of fear and hate, we are facing challenges to our very
'species-being'. Papers in the volume include ethnographic studies
on the 'refugee crisis', the 'financial crisis' and the 'rule of
law crisis' in the Mediterranean as well as the crisis of violence
and hunger in South America.
Over the last century, the industrialization of agriculture and
processing technologies have made food abundant and relatively
inexpensive for much of the world's population. Simultaneously,
pesticides, nitrates, and other technological innovations intended
to improve the food supply's productivity and safety have generated
new, often poorly understood risks for consumers and the
environment. From the proliferation of synthetic additives to the
threat posed by antibiotic-resistant bacteria, the chapters in Risk
on the Table zero in on key historical cases in North America and
Europe that illuminate the history of food safety, highlighting the
powerful tensions that exists among scientific understandings of
risk, policymakers' decisions, and cultural notions of "pure" food.
First published in French in 1943, Jean-Paul Sartre's L'Etre et le
Neant is one of the greatest philosophical works of the twentieth
century. In it, Sartre offers nothing less than a brilliant and
radical account of the human condition. The English philosopher and
novelist Iris Murdoch wrote to a friend of "the excitement - I
remember nothing like it since the days of discovering Keats and
Shelley and Coleridge". This new translation, the first for over
sixty years, makes this classic work of philosophy available to a
new generation of readers. What gives our lives significance,
Sartre argues in Being and Nothingness, is not pre-established for
us by God or nature but is something for which we ourselves are
responsible. At the heart of this view are Sartre's radical
conceptions of consciousness and freedom. Far from being an
internal, passive container for our thoughts and experiences, human
consciousness is constantly projecting itself into the outside
world and imbuing it with meaning. Combining this with the
unsettling view that human existence is characterized by radical
freedom and the inescapability of choice, Sartre introduces us to a
cast of ideas and characters that are part of philosophical legend:
anguish; the "bad faith" of the memorable waiter in the cafe;
sexual desire; and the "look" of the Other, brought to life by
Sartre's famous description of someone looking through a keyhole.
Above all, by arguing that we alone create our values and that
human relationships are characterized by hopeless conflict, Sartre
paints a stark and controversial picture of our moral universe and
one that resonates strongly today. This new translation includes a
helpful Translator's Introduction, a comprehensive Index and a
Foreword by Richard Moran, Brian D. Young Professor of Philosophy,
Harvard University, USA. Translated by Sarah Richmond, University
College London, UK.
