Merleau-Pontys focus on embodied experience allows us to approach political life in a manner that is both critical and engaged. This work demonstrates that political questions were always central to Merleau-Pontys philosophical project. It also shows how existential phenomenology illuminates and enlivens our understanding of politics.

Negativity and Politics is the first full-length study of the crucial problem of negativity, within philosophy and political theory. The author shows how it lies at the heart of philosophical and political debate.
