Summary

Pleasure Politics explores the surprising ways personal desires and aversions shape political power. This book examines how pleasure, far from being a purely private matter, is strategically used in political discourse, media, and social movements.

 
Did you know the manipulation of pleasure can reinforce power structures or incite rebellion? Or, that political actors often leverage ideas about pleasure to legitimize policies? The book unveils these often-hidden mechanisms by drawing on critical theory, gender studies, and media studies.

 
Beginning with an introduction to core concepts like power and political discourse, it progresses to case studies analyzing political advertising and social media campaigns.

 
Finally, Pleasure Politics synthesizes its findings to offer insights into strategies for challenging oppressive power structures and promoting social justice, revealing the crucial role of pleasure in shaping political ideologies and outcomes.

    John Milton is renowned for his poetry, yet during most of his lifetime he was best known as a writer of prose, both celebrated and denounced for his fiery polemics in an era of religious and political controversy, radical pamphleteering and civil war. This annotated edition of his major English prose writings includes Milton's tractates in favour of divorce, on progressive education, in defence of the execution of Charles I and the new Republican state, and Areopagitica, his famous attack on censorship and call for a free press. Rhetorical, powerful, heterodox, these are monuments to the ideals of liberty and free speech from a master of English prose.
