Description

"In this powerful critique, Norman Finkelstein challenges the rise of identity politics and urges the left to return to its historical foundations. What does it really mean to be part of the left tradition? Finkelstein argues that the essential political questions—class struggle, the national question, the woman question, the Jewish question, the Negro question—are being sidelined by culture war distractions."
