Judith Butler shows how COVID-19 and all its consequences—political, social, ecological, economic—have challenged us to reconsider the sense of the world that such disasters bring about. Criticizing notions of unlimited personal liberty and the killing forces of racism, sexism, and classism, this book suggests that the pandemic illuminates the potential of shared vulnerabilities as well as the injustice of pervasive inequalities. $17.95 / £14.99 paper 978-0-231-20829-1 $80.00 / £62.00 cloth 978-0-231-20828-4 November 2022 144 pages

Michele Moody-Adams
Michele Moody-Adams explores what social movements have shown about the nature of justice and what it takes to create space for justice in the world. She argues that these insights are critical to bridging the gap between discerning theory and effective practice—and should be transformative for political thought as well as for political activism. $28.00 / £20.00 paper 978-0-231-20137-7 $120.00 / £94.00 cloth 978-0-231-20136-0 2022 360 pages
