Politics and Pedagogy in the “Post-Truth” Era: Insurgent Philosophy and Praxis

Derek R. Ford, "Politics and Pedagogy in the “Post-Truth” Era: Insurgent Philosophy and Praxis"
English | ISBN: 1350059900 | 2018 | 168 pages | PDF | 7 MB

Those who are in shock that truth doesn't seem to matter in politics miss the mark: politics has never corresponded with the truth. Rather, political struggle is about the formulation and materialization of new truths. The “post-truth” era thus offers an important opportunity to push forward into a different world. Embracing this opportunity, Derek R. Ford articulates a new educational philosophy and praxis that emerges from within the nexus of social theory and political struggle. Blocking together aesthetics, queer theory, urbanism, postmodern philosophy, and radical politics, Ford develops arguments and proposals on key topics ranging from debt and time, to the death drive and forms of political organization. Through forceful yet accessible prose, Ford offers contemporary left politics an imaginative and potent set of educational concepts and practices.
