"This deeply thought-provoking collection asks if Europe can reimagine itself, beyond essentialism, in the wake of immigrant waves that reveal foreclosed political imaginaries that challenge and confront Europe's own image and self-understanding. By concentrating results and ideas of philosophers, political scientists, and interdisciplinary scholars, it offers new ways of contesting Europe from within. It offers sophisticated, bold chapters engaging Plato, Descartes, Hegel, Husserl, Heidegger, and post-war philosophers such as Patočka, Derrida, Agamben and Esposito. Overall, the collection reimagines Europe beyond closure, by thinking about it from a perspective of limits, thresholds, and margins. This volume is an excellent resource in contemporary continental political philosophy, indispensable for opening new horizons in today's geo-political thought." — Emilia Angelova, Concordia University
