Difference has long been a buzzword in both the theoretical and practical worlds. But Geographies of Difference takes this term in an entirely new direction by connecting it with Hegel rather than the usual suspects. In a groundbreaking and exhilarating book, Antonio Ioris links indigenous difference to the contradictions of capitalism globalization. In the process, he shows that Hegel is the thinker we need to bring this difference to light. After Geographies of Difference, we can no longer think of difference or of Hegel in the same way again. * Todd McGowan, author ‘Emancipation after Hegel’, University of Vermont, USA * Out of the meeting between Hegelian phenomenology and the consciousness born out of the struggle of Amerindian peoples a new sense of spacetime is born. Antonio Ioris's Geographies of Difference not only rewrites the theoretical and practical debates around notions of difference and indifference, particular and universal, essence and existence, but also the very orientation of philosophy and peoples' rights. If philosophy is to have a role in the construction of a new humanity, this is it. * Oscar Guardiola-Rivera, Birkbeck College, University of London, UK *
