"The edited volume Radical Future Pasts is an intellectually challenging and stimulating book. It provides the reader with an overview of significant debates within US discourses in political theory from a mainstream left perspective. The volume is a splendid introduction to contemporary and long lasting issues in political theory, particularly in the United States. The editors have done a splendid job in compiling a wide range of highly stimulating contributions to a unique volume." -- SCTIW Review, "Radical Future Pasts engages a tremendous range of topics, bringing together the work of some of the best contemporary political theorists around.

Synopsis
Written by both well-established and rising scholars, Radical Future Pasts seeks to open up new possibilities for theoretical inquiries and engagements with practical political struggles. Unlike conventional "state of the discipline" collections, this volume does not summarize the history of political theory. Rather than accept traditional ideas about the political past, the contributors reinterpret canonical and current texts to demonstrate fresh interpretations and narratives. Led by editors Romand Coles, Mark Reinhardt, and George Shulman, and inspired by the work of Peter Euben, the contributors both explore and exemplify the range and importance of political theory's different genres while concentrating on such themes as time and temporality, the politics of tragedy, and political movements and subjectivities. A groundbreaking volume featuring the best new scholarship in the field, this provocative book will be useful to scholars and students interested in political theory and its relationship to political practice., Written by both well-established and rising scholars, Radical Future Pasts seeks to open up new possibilities for theoretical inquiries and engagements with practical political struggles.
