Radical Philosophy

<p>In this concise introduction Chad Kautzer demonstrates the shared emancipatory goals and methods of several radical philosophies from Marxism and feminism to critical race and queer theory. <i>Radical Philosophy</i> examines the relations of theory and practice knowledge and power as well as the function of law in creating extralegal forms of domination. Through a critical engagement with the history of philosophy Kautzer reconstructs important counter-traditions of historical dialectical and reflexive forms of critique relevant to contemporary social struggles. The result is an innovative systematic guide to radical theory and critical resistance.</p>
