ITEM OVERVIEW
"With his combination of hard-edged logic and visionary hope, Michael Albert is one of the treasures of the Left." —Barbara Ehrenreich
How does a Marxist talk about gender? How does a feminist talk about class? Progressives use a variety of theories—feminism, Marxism, environmentalism, multiculturalism—as conceptual frameworks with which to understand the world and develop a vision for the future. How do social and political theories work, and how do they relate to each other? In Thought Dreams, Michael Albert discusses these questions using many examples and question-and-answer sections that make the book accessible and useful. It will help readers better understand progressive theories and begin to create their own theoretical perspective, one that is consistent with their principles, experiences, and priorities.
