{"product_id":"politics-of-fear-frank-furedi-9780826487285","title":"Politics of Fear","description":"Furedi argues that the traditional terms \"left\" and \"right\" have been both distorted and proved inadequate by a number of developments, notably the Cold War, the Culture Wars and (as he's shown in previous books) the prevalance of risk-adverse managerialism. The result is a politics (both big P and little p) that fails to take humans seriously as humans and which, necessarily, evades discussion of right and wrong. Furedi shows that the single most important political need is for an adequate conception of humanity (and, in the process, the public) and that it is this that will produce a new and more imaginative alignment in politics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Frank Furedi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0826487289\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780826487285\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/15\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.73lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.10h x 5.36w x 0.89d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/14\/2005","brand":"Frank Furedi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43947380179199,"sku":"9780826487285","price":68.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_a5fe2c8c-fbfe-4dde-89f8-9f79cefe1412.jpg?v=1681518385","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/politics-of-fear-frank-furedi-9780826487285","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
