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\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Isabell Lorey\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1839767332\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781839767333\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Verso\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/15\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.19h x 5.43w x 0.63d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/04\/2022 pg. 1","brand":"Isabell Lorey","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44073319989503,"sku":"9781839767333","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0a2085f0-fc4f-405f-bf1c-37e9466bc48c.jpg?v=1685447136","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/democracy-in-the-present-tense-isabell-lorey-9781839767333","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
