{"product_id":"exodus-and-revolution","title":"Exodus And Revolution","description":"From a pre-eminent political philosopher, a moving meditation on the biblical story of Exodus and its powerful lessons for those seeking political change.\n“A rewarding book―elegantly written, subtly argued, full of stimulating suggestions.”―New York Times\nThe biblical book of Exodus is the West's oldest and most enduring story of liberation and, as Michael Walzer argues, its first and most influential work of radical politics. Against messianic visions of sudden deliverance, Walzer recovers Exodus as a realist's guide to political change, one that takes seriously how slow and painful the process of emancipation can be. Moving across the centuries, he shows how everyone from Puritan revolutionaries to civil-rights preachers to Latin American theologians have all found in this ancient text a template for their own struggle. The result is both a strikingly original reading of a familiar text and a profound meditation on the necessarily gradual and fraught road from oppression to deliverance.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0465021638\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0465021638.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Walzer, Michael\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
