{"product_id":"between-cultures-tensions-in-the-struggle-for-recognition-9781859842737","title":"Between Cultures: Tensions in the Struggle for Recognition","description":"Whenever an individual asks to be recognized, he asks for confirmation of what he believes himself to be. But he also asks for an establishing act which brings about what he is not yet and what he will be only once he has been recognized. Recognition is thus marked by a tension between two incompatible demands, a tension which triggers a struggle for recognition. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eBetween Cultures\u003c\/i\u003e is a philosophical attempt to discuss issues related to multiculturalism in the light of this struggle for recognition. Moving effortlessly between philosophy, psychoanalysis, sociology, political theory and literature, it refers to the work of Adorno, Derrida, Freud, Hegel, Heidegger, Rawls, Walzer and Wittgenstein to describe a historical and critical politics of recognition. It also addresses questions of national and sexual identities, with particular reference to the notion of a gay identity in the context of Aids.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alexander Garcia Duttmann\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Verso\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/17\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e Phronesis (Paperback)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.86lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.08h x 6.04w x 0.63d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781859842737","brand":"Verso","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42711387209865,"sku":"9781859842737","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_efe95198-8f2a-4885-9181-8c2056944f7f.jpg?v=1719568573","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/between-cultures-tensions-in-the-struggle-for-recognition-9781859842737","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
