Product Information
For many commentators, September 11 inaugurated a new era of fear. But as Corey Robin shows in his unsettling tour of the Western imagination, fear has shaped our politics and culture since time immemorial. From the Garden of Eden to the Gulag Archipelago to today's headlines, Robin traces our growing fascination with political danger and disaster. With danger playing an increasing role in our daily lives and justifying a growing number of government policies, Fear offers a bracing, and necessary, antidote to our contemporary culture of fear.Product Identifiers
