For the past decade, no thinker has had a greater influence on debates about the meaning of climate change in the humanities than the historian Dipesh Chakrabarty.

Here Chakrabarty elaborates this thesis for the first time in book form and extends it in imp...

Indispensabile perché le idee universali proposte dall'Illuminismo europeo rimangono la fondamentale base di ogni critica sociale che cerchi di affrontare i problemi della giustizia e dell'equità.
