Discriminations: Achieving Peace in the Culture Wars

Discriminations: Achieving Peace in the Culture Wars

by A. C. Grayling

Format
Paperback
Category
Non-Fiction
Publisher

Publish Date
April 2025

It seems like we can t talk about anything nowadays.. Whether it s war or something utterly inconsequential, the internet is primed for furore. And the results can be horrifying - from online pile-ons and doxing to job loss and, in some cases, death. But how did we end up here? Nuanced and historically grounded, A. C. Grayling searches for middle ground in an otherwise incendiary debate. Looking at the history of cancellation, from Ancient Greek ostracism through hemlock cups, witch trials and the House of Un-American Activities, Discriminations is a timely examination of the state of our public culture and the chilling effect it s having on intellectual discourse.
