Summary

Sociality under the sign of liberalism has seemingly come to an end-or, at least, is in dire crisis. 'Xenocitizens' returns to the antebellum United States in order to intervene in a wide field of responses to our present economic and existential precarity. In this incisive study, Jason Berger challenges a shaken but still standing scholarly tradition based on liberal-humanist perspectives
