Routledge Politics of Recognition and Social Justice Book

Explore the complex dynamics of resistance and agency in contemporary Western societies with this academic work from Routledge. Part of the Routledge Advances in Feminist Studies and Intersectionality series, this book uses a wide range of case studies to examine how individuals face social injustices. By looking at how people make sense of their subjectivity within relations of power, the text investigates what kinds of subjectivities are required to struggle against dominance and claim recognition. It addresses how people are constructed and reconstructed through social structures. This study looks at challenges to forms of dominance and subordination tied to class, race, culture, nationality, sexuality, and religion. It is a significant resource for those studying anthropology, sociology, and feminist studies who want to understand new forms of resistance in the modern world.
