Abstract


This book is the transcript of a conference that Judith Butler (Ohio, 1956) gave in Barcelona in April 2010 together with an in-depth interview. Both texts, addressed to an educated reader, not necessarily specialized in political philosophy revolve around the role the left can play in the defense of the most vulnerable in view of the present forms of oppression, exclusion and violence.
