Rather than regimes of borders and migration, its borders are sexism and racism, homo- and transphobia, colonialism and extractivism.\"\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eIn the midst of the crises and threats to liberal democracy, Isabell Lorey develops a democracy in the present tense; one which breaks open political certainties and linear concepts of progress and growth. Her queer feminist political theory formulates a fundamental critique of masculinist concepts of the people, representation, institutions, and the multitude. In doing so, she unfolds an original concept of a presentist democracy based on care and interrelatedness, on the irreducibility of responsibilities--one which cannot be conceived of without social movements' past struggles and current practices.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Verso\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/15\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781839767333\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.81lbs","brand":"Isabell Lorey","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42439216693429,"sku":"9781839767333","price":22.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_ecffb7d4-fb9a-4dcd-ae02-b8deee438dbf.jpg?v=1665460470","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/democracy-in-the-political-present-a-queer-feminist-theory-9781839767333","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
