Produktbeschreibung

One of the most acclaimed essayists writing today on the political hysteria plaguing the West

Decades of violence and chaos have generated a political and intellectual hysteriaranging from imperial atavism to paranoia about invading or hectically breeding Muslim hordesthat has affected even the most intelligent in Anglo-America. In iBland Fanatics/i, Pankaj Mishra examines this hysteria and its fantasists, taking on its arguments and the atmosphere in which it has festered and become influential. In essays that grapple with colonialism, human rights, and the doubling down of liberalism against a background of faltering economies and weakening Anglo-American hegemony, Mishra confronts writers from Jordan Peterson and Niall Ferguson to Salman Rushdie and Ayaan Hirsi Ali. With a newly written introduction, these essays provide a vantage point from which to look seriously at the current crisis.
