Routledge - Liminality and the Philosophy of Presence Book

Explore a new direction in political theory with Liminality and the Philosophy of Presence. This work by Routledge moves away from traditional methods of confronting political life through new concepts. Instead, it introduces the philosophy of presence, a mode of thought often left out of the standard political theory canon. By placing the experience of liminality at the center of the discussion, the book explains how embracing "in-betweenness" helps identify the limits of both the political order and modern political theory. This text provides a unique perspective for students and scholars interested in the boundaries of political thought. Through a detailed study of influential thinkers, the author examines how their ideas connect to these themes. The book features analysis of the works of Gustav Landauer, Eric Voegelin, Simone Weil, and Vaclav Havel. It is a significant addition to the Contemporary Liminality series for those studying anthropology, sociology, and political philosophy.
