Description

Asma Abbas teaches Politics and Philosophy at Bard College at SimonÍs Rock in Great Barrington, Massachusetts. Her work inhabits the intersections of politics, ethics, and aesthetics in various philosophical and cultural traditions. She has worked on issues of suffering, memory, labour, voice, and representation, and has of late become captive to questions of love, terror, and life on the margins of times and spaces. Her first book, Liberalism and Human Suffering, is being released this autumn by Palgrave Macmillan.
