      I've been approached to write a book, btw, tweeps. Accessible explanation of dominant forms of critical theory, where they came from, how they manifest in the world now. The good, the bad & the crazy bits of all of them.

      What I want to produce is a resource that people can dip into if they want to know, eg 'What is critical whiteness theory?' and find an overview of history, references to key texts & an analysis of the good bits, mad bits & ethically troubling bits.

          But I'd also like it to be something which, if read straight through, would give a laymen a thorough grounding in key ideas of postmodernism, how they evolved through various forms of critical theory & manifested in political culture as well as my argument about how to address it

          It will be a expansion of my essay 'No, Postmodernism is not Dead' allowing me to develop & demonstrate my argument in much more detail. It will still be an overview but I hope to avoid reductionism by acknowledging this & giving many sources for ppl wanting to take it further.

          It will allow me to be less polemical but still get my point across. I intend to steelman the premises of various forms of critical theory & also show where they have been useful before showing where they have not, why they have not & why this matters.

          Thank you! I am still at the stage of having decided to accept the offer. I still have to work out the details and then actually write it so it will be some time yet.
