When “rights” go wrong. Does gay marriage support the right-wing goal of linking access to basic human rights like health care and economic security to an inherently conservative tradition? Will the ability of queers to fight in wars of imperialism help liberate and empower LGBT people around the world? Does hate-crime legislation affirm and strengthen historically anti-queer institutions like the police and prisons rather than dismantling them? The Against Equality collective asks some hard questions. These queer thinkers, writers, and artists are committed to undermining a stunted conception of “equality.” In this powerful book, they challenge mainstream gay and lesbian struggles for inclusion in elitist and inhumane institutions. More than a critique, Against Equality seeks to reinvigorate the queer political imagination with fantastic possibility! "In an era when so much of the lesbian and gay movement seems to echo the rhetoric of the mainstream Establishment, the work of Against Equality is an important provocation and corrective.... I hope this book is read widely, particularly by the people who will most disagree with it; in the tradition of the great political pamphleteers, this collection should spark debate around some of the key issues for our movement." —Dennis Altman, author of Homosexual: Oppression & Liberation "Against Equality issues a radical call for social transformation. Against and beyond the "holy trinity" of pragmatic gay politics—marriage, militarism, and prison—the queer and trans voices archived in this collection offer a radical left critique of neoliberalism, capitalism, and state oppression. In a format accessible and enlivening, equally at home in the classroom and on the street, this book keeps our political imaginations alive. Prepare to be challenged, educated, and inspired." —Margot Weiss, author of Techniques of Pleasure

This book is a contribution to the ongoing conversation about value pluralism and its relation to political life. Its uniqueness lies in its insistence that the acceptance of value pluralism involves placing certain limitations on what is an acceptable form of government and what functions governments ought to be legitimately performing. In a new approach coined “nomocratic pluralism,” this volume argues that liberty under the rule of law, which is not merely liberty where the law is silent, is a key concept of liberty and cannot be subsumed by the other primary implications of the acceptance of value pluralism: that political communities must reject positive liberty as a political value, and place a high, but not absolute, priority on negative liberty as a political value. The concept of liberty under the rule of law is particularly suited to accommodate a great variety of individual and group conceptions of value and the moral good, and thus, along with negative liberty, should be a primary value for those who accept value pluralism.

Addresses both social and cultural geography in a single volume, authored and edited by leading authorities in the fields The Companion to Social and Cultural Geography provides reliable and up-to-date coverage of both foundational topics and emerging themes within two vibrant and increasingly interconnected subdisciplines of geography. Building upon the Companion to Cultural Geography first published in 2013, editors Ishan Ashutosh and Jamie Winders offer an expertly curated collection of original essays with special emphasis on early-career scholars, geographers of color, and geographers from the Global South. Organized thematically, the Companion opens with a series of "Global Dispatches" from cultural and social geographers working in different disciplines and locations, followed by explorations of key concepts in social and cultural geography such as identity, belonging, solidarity, inequalities, and intersectional geographies. Subsequent chapters examine a wide range of cultural and social geographies, including creativity, technologies, science, nature, memory, tourism, migration, labor, and religion. Throughout the Companion, authors share fresh insights into the racial reckonings of late, ongoing issues related to climate change, the consequences of COVID-19, and more. Across its 46 chapters, the Companion to Social and Cultural Geography: Examines how approaches to human-environment dynamics in social and cultural geography help shed light on current challenges Covers critical topics such as justice, protest, borders, public health, urban planning, indigeneity, genders, class, race, and sexualities Emphasizes the value of a geographic perspective to understanding social and cultural dynamics Discusses how geography has confronted its deep connections to colonialism, imperialism, and white supremacy Addresses a range of emerging and established themes, including queer and transgender geographies, Black geographies, animal geographies, and cultural geographies of states Incorporates a diversity of writing styles, narratives, and analyses, such as interviews, conversations, short essays, autobiography, and autoethnography Accessible, authoritative, and highly relevant to today's students, the Companion to Social and Cultural Geography is an essential textbook for undergraduate or graduate courses on social or cultural geography, cultural studies, cultural sociology, and ethnic studies.

This book offers a comprehensive approach to moral experience. It respects the many dimensions of our moral life which elude the traditional philosophical theories that deal exclusively with principles, consequences, virtues, or some other single dimension. Working from a critique of such traditions, the book shows how to integrate their values in a dynamic coherence. Thus, it is not just another ethical theory, but a new level of philosophizing in ethics which rewards the reader with an enlarged and enriched vision of our complexity as moral beings.

First published in 1998, this volume offers some solutions to the inherent difficulties with moving from philosophical generalities to specific policies, by exploring how a bridge might be built between political philosophy and social policy analysis. In light of these findings, Steven R. Smith evaluates the relationship between the Centre-Left and the New Right, focusing on the way in which concepts of individual autonomy and equality are used by political philosophers and social policy makers. Smith explores post-1945 training, education, social security and community care policy within the United Kingdom.
