A controversial look at the social politics of equality and cultural politics of difference
Nancy Fraser is Henry and Louise A. Loeb Professor of Philosophy and Politics at the New School for Social Research. She is the author of Fortunes of Feminism and The Old is Dying and the New Cannot be Born, and co-author of Capitalism: A Conversation and Feminism for the 99%.
Even those of us who disagree with Nancy Fraser on substantive
questions recognize her ability to illuminate the conflicting
demands, hopes and sufferings of our time. With the capacity to
learn by dialogue, an analytically sharp mind and a stunning
synthetic ability, she is among the very few thinkers in the
tradition of critical theory who are capable of redeeming its
legacy in the twenty-first century.
*Axel Honneth*
For more than a decade, Nancy Fraser's thought has helped to
reframe the agenda of critical theory. Today, when hopes flicker
and shine against the background of pervasive repression, Adding
Insult to Injury provides a singular stimulation.
*Etienne Balibar*
