We Ourselves Av Tristan Garcia

Throughout the history of human societies, the question of we has always entailed the question of us and them, the reconciliation of which can either give birth to or mark the end of a politics. Tristan Garcias radical historicisation of the ways we have imagined ourselves is more than a commentary on the dynamics of representation in a given society. This work is a rigorous engagement with the history of humanitys attempts at being collectively. For fans of The Life Intense, the first volume in the Letting Be series, We Ourselves is the next step in the development of Garcia''s thought, but for those who have not read it, it also stands alone. Garcia provides a methodological framework that critically reinvigorates our dreams of the society to come and clears the way for the return to ontology in Letting Be III.
