To achieve this new society, \u003ci\u003eRevolutionary Hope After Nihilism\u003c\/i\u003e outlines a practical philosophy of change that rejects ideologies of false hope and passive hopelessness.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Drawing public attention to the decisiveness of the present historical moment, Ahmed introduces a critical theory of social emancipation based on post-Soviet revolutionary movements that have emerged at the margins of the global social order. The rise of socially and politically exclusionary movements in multiple parts of the world, ongoing ecological crisis, anti-Black racism, and the concretization of despair brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic demand a new approach to revolution, which Ahmed argues, must be rooted in the experiences of the most oppressed in society.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Realizing the epistemological potential of emancipatory movements, Ahmed rejects dystopian nihilism and positions our focus on marginalized spaces to break out of capitalist totalitarianism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Saladdin Ahmed\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 135026928X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350269286\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 08\/25\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.63d","brand":"Saladdin Ahmed","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44071408402687,"sku":"9781350269286","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_612d287b-3648-4df0-bc51-5ee8c0aeaf97.jpg?v=1685435922","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/revolutionary-hope-after-nihilism-saladdin-ahmed-9781350269286","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
