Product Description

This book is an autobiographical meditation on the way in which the worlds population has been transformed into a society of refugees and migrs seeking indeed, demanding an alternative way of political belonging. Focusing on the interregnum we have precariously occupied since the end of World War IIand especially after 9/11 it constitutes a series of genealogical chapters that trace the authors journey from his experience as a prisoner of war in Nazi Germany to the horrific fire-bombing of Dresden in February 1945. In doing so, it explores his search for an intellectual vocation adequate to the dislocating epiphany he experienced in bearing witness to these traumatising events. Having subsequently lost faith in the logic of belonging perpetuated by the nation-state, Spanos charts how he began to look in the rubble of that zero zone for an alternative way of belonging: one in which the old binary whose imperative was based on the violence of the Friend/enemy opposition wasreplaced by a paradoxical loving strife that enriched rather than negated the potential of each side. The chapters in this book trace this errant vocational itinerary, from the authors early undergraduate engagement with Kierkegaard and Heidegger to Cornel West, moving from that disclosive occasion in the zero zone to this present moment.
