The world after Gaza : : a history
| Title | The world after Gaza : : a history |
| Names | Mishra, Pankaj. |
| Book Number | DB128685 |
| Medium | Digital Book |
| Annotation | "The World After Gaza takes the current war, and the polarized reaction to it, as the starting point for a broad reevaluation of two competing narratives of the last century: the Global North's triumphant account of victory over totalitarianism and the spread of liberal capitalism, and the Global South's hopeful vision of racial equality and freedom from colonial rule. At a moment when the world's balance of power is shifting, and the Global North no longer commands ultimate authority, it is critically important that we understand how and why the two halves of the world are failing to talk to each other. As old touchstones and landmarks crumble, only a new history with a sharply different emphasis can reorient us to the world and worldviews now emerging into the light. In this concise, powerful, and pointed treatise, Mishra reckons with the fundamental questions posed by our present crisis--about whether some lives matter more than others, how identity is constructed, and what the role of the nation-state ought to be."-- From publisher. -- Unrated. Commercial audiobook. |
