It is a journey through contemporary political philosophy that puts forward a basic interpretative hypothesis. Mariano Croce and Andrea Salvatore analyse the theories and proposals of many prominent political philosophers and attempt to arrive at the conclusion that today's politics is characterised by a striking reviviscence of groups (whether ethnic, religious, financial, or else) which is profoundly impacting on the role of traditional political institutions, and on the state in particular. Political philosophers discussed include Giorgio Agamben, Zygmunt Bauman, Mark Goodale, Martha Nussbaum, Charles Taylor, Slavoj Žižek and many others. Undoing Ties also devotes attention to elements that are crucial to a sound analysis of contemporary politics, both at a national and at a global level, such as the law and the transformation of the legal practice and a socio-anthropological analysis of globalisation. It is an exhaustive picture of the debates and discussions in the field of political philosophy in a captivating way, which leads the reader to an informed global understanding of the field, but also to reflect on some vital issues that directly affect their everyday life."--Bloomsbury Publishing.Political sciencePhilosophyHistory20th centuryPolitical sciencePhilosophyHistory21st centuryState, ThePhilosophySocial & political philosophyPolitical sciencePhilosophyHistoryPolitical sciencePhilosophyHistoryState, ThePhilosophy.320.01POL010000PHI019000POL042000bisacshCroce Mariano478502Salvatore AndreaUtOrBLWUtOrBLWBOOK9910960100803321Undoing ties4338395UNINA
