As we face 'the end of all things', Ben Ware argues we must face our apocalyptic future without flinching. In fact, extinction is the very lens through which we should examine our current reality. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRadical politics today should not be concerned with merely averting the worst but rather with beginning again at the end. To think about the future in this way is itself a form of liberation that might incubate the necessary radical solutions we need. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eCombining lessons from Kant, Hegel, Adorno, and Lacan, as well as drawing on popular culture and ecology, Ware recasts the most urgent issue of our times and resolves that we can only consider our collective end by treating it as a starting point.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ben Ware\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 178873999X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781788739993\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Verso\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/26\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.80w x 0.80d","brand":"Ben Ware","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44302447804671,"sku":"9781788739993","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8ddbc4ac-91e1-4a6e-94a9-98177fbd2cb6.jpg?v=1695161648","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/on-extinction-ben-ware-9781788739993","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
