The Politics of Change: Globalization, Ideology and Critique Werner Bonefeld, Kosmas Psychopedis

That the world is changing is not surprising. What, however, is to be understood by the "politics of change"? This book takes a critical view of the debate on "globalization" and assesses revamped versions of structuralist thought, which underpin much of the globalization discourse. Special attention is given to the work of Jürgen Habermas. In contrast to conventional views on change, the book emphasizes "change" as a politics of emancipation. Bringing together original, specially-commissioned chapters by leading international scholars, it will rapidly establish itself as a landmark text.
