What is We Ourselves : The Politics of Us, Letting Be II about?

## Moves toward a radically new politics that is both emancipatory and realist * Demonstrates the necessity of rethinking 'we' through a rigorous historicisation and analysis of the different concepts underlying our usage of the second-person plural * Continues and moves beyond the formal ethical tool established at the end of __The Life Intense__ * Paves the way for a critical reassessment of contemporary obstacles to emancipatory political thinking * Connects the ontological framework of Garcia’s __Form and Object__ to the existential and ethical interrogation in __The Life Intense__ while translating the latter into a collective dimension Throughout the history of human societies, the question of ‘we’ has always entailed the question of ‘us and them’, the reconciliation of which can either give birth to or mark the end of a politics. Tristan Garcia’s radical historicisation of the ways we have imagined ourselves is more than a commentary on the dynamics of representation in a given society. This work is a rigorous engagement with the history of humanity’s attempts at being collectively. For fans of __The Life Intense__, the first volume in the Letting Be series, __We Ourselves__
