The Political Sociology and Anthropology of Evil: Tricksterology

By Arpad Szakolczai

Book Overview

This book offers a novel interpretation of contemporary modernity and its permanent liminality by revisiting the classical question of the nature of evil through the anthropologically based concept of the 'trickster': a paradoxical figure who is considered at once an outcast and a cultural hero.
