Who's Afraid of Gender? by Judith Butler

informative inspiring tense medium-paced

5.0

Incredible. Honestly my favorite Judith Butler book. I found it to be much less dense and challenging than some of her earlier theoretical works but just as impactful. I really appreciated her theory applied to contemporary issues and her conceptualizations of a praxis of compassion and aid. Her illustration of capitalism as being a force which oppresses all, even those driven to uphold it out of anxiety challenged me to reconsider the conservative agenda. Awesome piece and I will be rereading.
