Bøker av Costas (Birkbeck Douzinas

Amidst the turmoil of economic crisis, Greece has become the first European experiment of Left rule in a sea of neoliberalism.

This book is about the global crisis and the right to resistance, about neoliberal biopolitics and direct democracy, about the responsibility of intellectuals and the poetry of the multitude. Using Greece as an example, Douzinas argues that the persistent sequence of protests, uprisings and revolutions has radically changed the political landscape.

Addresses the paradox of a contemporary humanitarianism that has abandoned politics in favour of combating evil. This book examines a range of topics, including: the normative characteristics, political philosophy and metaphysical foundations of our age; the subjective and institutional aspects of human rights; and more.
