BOOKS

I. My book, Reclaiming Stability: The Dialectic of Stability and Instability, provides a monograph-length analysis of the concept of stability in the history of political philosophy. I argue that there has been a shift from the early-modern view of stability as intrinsic to a just society to the contemporary view that stability is detrimental to political life. In light of this history, I critique contemporary political philosophy’s romanticization of disruptive, radical, and agonistic politics as abandoning the pursuit of lasting justice for the oppressed. Engaging with the traditions of critical theory, feminism, Marxism, Black political thought, and Decolonial theory, the book responds to this abdication by constructing a new theory of stable justice. Justice for the oppressed that is not stable, it argues, is no justice at all; it is merely a temporary reprieve.

II. The Domination Knot: Selected Writings of Frigga Haug. Forthcoming, Routledge.
