001440729 520__ $$aThis book explores how the anarchist fiction of Joseph Conrad can help us understand terrorism today. Conrad undermines the popular view that terrorists are fanatics. He portrays anarchists and police as counterparts driven by the human desires for autonomy and affiliation, the need to control their own lives and to be part of a group. Postcritique encourages readers to consider the accuracy of such information, and research in Terrorism Studies confirms Conrads insights: his characters are more realistic and his political stance is more hopeful than critics have recognized. Joyce Wexler is Professor Emerita of English at Loyola University Chicago, USA. She is President of the Joseph Conrad Society of America. Her publications include Joseph Conrad and Postcritique (co-edited with Jay Parker), Violence Without God, Who Paid for Modernism, and Laura Ridings Pursuit of Truth.
