Rewriting the Past: How Cancel Culture Is Interfering with Building the Future
14.99 €
Cancel culture is one of the most striking phenomena of our time, the practice of publicly boycotting people or organizations for statements or actions that the masses find unacceptable. However, cancel culture may not only concern our contemporaries.

In his book, French philosopher and historian Pierre Vesperini shows how people who seek to rewrite or erase controversial moments of the past prevent us from learning the lessons of history. Those who want to “cancel” Shakespeare, Woodrow Wilson, or Churchill, Vesperini argues, ask important questions, but do not tolerate half-tones and often come to erroneous conclusions. His book will help readers better understand the nature of contemporary social debate and preserve the ability to critically reflect on history, and therefore consciously shape the future.
