Beskrivning
World-renowned philosopher A. C. Grayling explores the messy politics of the ‘culture wars’It seems like we can’t talk about anything nowadays… Whether it’s war or something utterly inconsequential, the internet is primed for furore. And the results can be horrifying – from online pile-ons and doxing to job loss and, in some cases, death. But how did we end up here?Nuanced and historically grounded, A. C. Grayling searches for middle ground in an otherwise incendiary debate. Looking at the history of cancellation, from Ancient Greek ‘ostracism’ through hemlock cups, witch trials and the House of Un-American Activities, Discriminations is a timely examination of the state of our public culture and the chilling effect it’s having on intellectual discourse.

'His prose is crisp. His arguments, compelling. I learned from his book to treasure the Enlightenment’s belief in liberty and equality as inherent human rights.' —Good Reading Magazine
