Performing Political Theory: Pedagogy in Modern Political Theory Uhr John
This book examines the performative role of influential thinkers in the history of modern Western political thought. Machiavelli, Mill and Nietzsche wrote classic works in political theory (The Prince, On Liberty, Genealogy of Morals) to reform and reshape their readers' ability to think and act politically. The case studies examine influential political philosophers who saw their writing role 'performatively', as an exercise in pedagogy designed to generate a new type of political following among their readers.
This book examines how a small sample of classic theoretical performers wrote their remarkable public works.John Uhr draws on Thinkers become performative through what they write in their public performance; and contemporary academic teachers can use this to great pedagogical effect in helping students 'get the point' of political theorising.
