Beskrivning
Creolizing Practices of Freedom argues that many of our long-standing debates over the concept of freedom have been bound up in the politics of purity—explicitly or implicitly insisting on clear and distinct boundaries between self and other or between choice and coercion. In this model, freedom becomes a matter of purifying the self at the individual level and the body politic at the larger social level. The appropriate response to this is a creolizing theory of freedom, an approach that sees indeterminacy and ambiguity not as tragic flaws, but as crucial productive elements of the practice of freedom.

Recensioner i media

Creolizing Practices of Freedom is an excellent book! It develops care­fully nuanced and complex arguments, engages with various im­portant figures, and advances an argument that anyone who works within political theory ought to be attentive to.
