Book Description
Challenging the linear view of history which confines or predetermines the
outcome of politics, this book argues for an 'untimely' politics, rendering the
past problematic and the future unpredictable. Untimely Politics offers close
readings of key texts in political theory and enters into debates involving
metaphysics, philosophy of language, and psychoanalysis versus discursive
analysis - all designed to demonstrate that untimeliness expands the scope of
the political. The ideas are weaved together around the theme of the relevance
of language analysis to political debate, answering those critics who insist
discourse approaches to politics are irrelevant. Calling on key texts of
Heidegger, Nietzsche, Foucault and Derrida the book challenges
