Opis

At a time when the political Left have watched the apparent decline of socialism, and with it the cynical rejection of political hope, the question of how to rethink political transformation has become a pressing question. In Transformations, Drucilla Cornell offers a conception of recollective imagination which allows us to preserve and re-articulate the tradition of critical social theory.
