Opis

Propositions for Non-Fascist Living: Tentative and Urgent begins from an urgent need to - and uncertainty about how to -- outline the contours of what living in non-fascist ways could mean in times when the resurfacing of contemporary fascisms violate the infrastructures and very foundations for a common life. Borrowing from Michel Foucault's notion of 'non-fascist living' as an 'art of living counter to all forms of fascism,' including that 'in us all... the fascism that causes us to love power, to desire e very thing that dominates and exploits us,' the book addresses the practice of living rather than the mere object of life
