Adding Insult to Injury by Nikolas Kompridis
Traces the debate sparked by the author's controversial effort to combine the social politics of equality and the cultural politics of difference, while probing the tensions between them.
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 timeWith 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
