Produktinformationen zu „Critical Theory and the Humanities in the Age of the Alt-Right / Progress in Mathematics (PDF)“

This books uses critical theory in order to understand the rise of the Alt-Right and the election of Donald Trump-and, in doing so, to assert the necessity and value of various disciplines within the humanities. While neoliberal mainstream culture has expressed shock at the seemingly expeditious rise of the Alt-Right movement and the outcome of the 2016 United States presidential election, a rich tradition of theory may not only explain the occurrence of this "phenomenon," but may also chart an alternative understanding of the movement, revealing the persistence of right-wing populism throughout the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.Though the humanities have seen themselves undervalued and under attack in recent years, the historical and cultural contextualization of the current moment via theory is a means of reaffirming the value of the humanities in teaching the ever-important and multifaceted skill of critical literacy. This book re-affirms the humanities, particularly thestudy of literature, theory, and philosophy, through questions such as how the humanities can help us understand the here and now.
