Tom Boland

The Spectacle of Critique (eBook, PDF)

From Philosophy to Cacophony

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book draws on anthropological theory to provide a different perspective on the public cacophony of critique, where even entrenched opponents become imitative, making the same accusations against one other. Addressing a central academic concern, with a special focus on political critique in the public sphere, it offers a sociology of critique that problematizes critique, examining its roots, as well its various forms in contemporary political discourse in relation to populism, as seen in presidential elections, referendum campaigns and discussions of welfare reform.
