This volume of essays by leading international philosophers, cultural theoreticians and art historians offers new ideas and practices for resistance today.

Contributors include Dutch cultural theorist and video artist Mieke Bal; Belgian philosopher Pascal Chabot; museum director Bernard Fibicher; German philosopher Markus Gabriel; German art historian Isabelle Graw; American curator and writer Mary Jane Jacob; French philosopher Plínio Prado; American activist Andrew Ross; American artist and activist Gregory Sholette; German philosopher Markus Steinweg; and Swiss art historian Michel Thévoz."
