{"product_id":"tainted-tools-angela-last-9781526144256","title":"Tainted Tools: New Materialisms as a Decolonial Project","description":"Tainted Tools makes a provocative intervention into the fraught intersection between new materialist and decolonial approaches. Despite a common project of challenging European philosophical and social categories and hierarchies, the discourses are considered incompatible. Most prominently, new materialisms have been accused of harbouring a White vision of the human while disregarding the racist resonances of the 'nonhuman'. The book traces this conflict to an earlier meeting point of new materialist and decolonial projects, which came about through the experimental combination of Marx and Nietzsche. Used to fight fascism, Stalinism and colonialism, this politically contentious fusion gradually became depoliticised, leading to unaddressed tensions today. While the book does not argue for a revival of these early 'new materialisms', it brings their strategies into dialogue with today's new materialisms and decolonial approaches to develop greater theoretical solidarity in times of crisis.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Angela Last\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1526144255\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781526144256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Manchester University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/09\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 232\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Angela Last","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48114121277695,"sku":"9781526144256","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_57f0da25-1dca-4696-941d-524d016e543d.jpg?v=1769619246","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/tainted-tools-angela-last-9781526144256","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
