Among the essays included here are 'The Controversy about Marx and Justice', 'The Duty to Bring Aid', 'Primo Levi and Jean Amery: Shame' and the contentious 'Euston Manifesto', which lays down a set of central principles for the democratic left in the twenty-first century. The reader is rounded out with  several posts from Geras's much-loved and widely read 'Normblog', as well as companion essays by Alan Johnson and Terry Glavin, which explore how Geras's philosophical concerns led to his more recent, trenchant critiques of the direction of left-wing politics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnthology introduction –Ben Cohen and Eve Garrard\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart I Marxism and liberalism\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOn Geras's Marxism – Alan Johnson\u003cbr\u003e1        Human Nature and Historical Materialism \u003cbr\u003e2         That Most Complex Being\u003cbr\u003e3        Minimum Utopia\u003cbr\u003e4        The Controversy About Marx and Justice\u003cbr\u003e5        What Does it Mean to be a Marxist?\u003cbr\u003e6        The Euston Manifesto\u003cbr\u003e7        The Reductions of the Left\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart II The longest hatred: antisemitism  \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e8         Alibi Antisemitism\u003cbr\u003e9        Marxists Before the Holocaust\u003cbr\u003e10    Marx and antisemitism \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart III The responsibility to protect \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e11    The Duty to Bring Aid\u003cbr\u003e12    Humanitarian Intervention\u003cbr\u003e13    The War in Iraq\u003cbr\u003e14    On Justifying Humanitarian Intervention in Syria\u003cbr\u003e15    Burying Humanitarian Intervention\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart IV Normblog: the best of  \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction - Ben Cohen and Eve Garrard\u003cbr\u003eA Normblog decade \u003cbr\u003eToo much Holocaust\u003cbr\u003eSix theses on the death of Margaret Thatcher\u003cbr\u003eA right denied to millions\u003cbr\u003eHymning Hizbollah\u003cbr\u003eMy Australia\u003cbr\u003eWhy does football matter?\u003cbr\u003eFiction like green vegetables\u003cbr\u003eJane Austen's kick\u003cbr\u003eIt's his party, you can cry if you want to\u003cbr\u003eOrdinary women\u003cbr\u003ePrimo Levi and Jean Amery: shame\u003cbr\u003eFifteen great jazz albums\u003cbr\u003eThinking about war \u003cbr\u003eTo keep on keepin’ on \u003cbr\u003eEpilogue: reflections on the work of Norman Geras – Terry Glavin \u003cbr\u003eNorman Geras: the complete bibliography\u003cbr\u003eIndex\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Manchester University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51040974897495,"sku":"9781526103857","price":72.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781526103857.jpg?v=1750948460","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-norman-geras-reader-whats-there-is-there-9781526103857","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
