| Summary / Abstract (Note) | As the twentieth century drew to a close, political theorists of various stripes
argued that many aspects of human existence-including not only the subconscious, but also emotions, emotional states, rhetoric, aesthetics, judgments-
play a larger role in politics than does rational argument alone. Some had
argued for the "death of Man," claiming that the human is no longer a meaningful category. In this new century, the three books under review here try to
make arguments for ways to study this displaced subject, actor, human. Each
of the three books is scholarly and erudite; each is more or less successful on
its own terms. What is their contribution to political theory? |
