| Publisher Description: "A Future without Walls is an essential contribution to public theology today and needs to be read amid the current crises pertaining to borders, hate, and social division. It is a theoretically astute reflection on the themes of difference and othering for those grappling with the perennial problems of American public life." --Mark Lewis Taylor, Princeton Theological Seminary "This is a courageous, passionate, and timely book. T. Richard Snyder challenges the assumptions behind the production of inequalities and the nation state, and passionately presents the future of humanity without walls." --Ali Abdullatif Ahmadi, University of New England "Snyder presents a historically rooted and richly argued alternative to hunkering down in our factions or seeking to return to a simpler life. Rather, we need a radical transformation that requires all of us to come up out of ourselves as individuals and embrace relationships, connections, and hope as the only foundation for our future existence. This is a nourishing and restorative read." --Katherine Cramer, University of Wisconsin-Madison, and the author of The Politics of Resentment: Rural Consciousness in Wisconsin and the Rise of Scott Walker. "A Future Without Walls is an important and timely companion for the weary, the questioner, the explorer, the activist, the intellectual, the lover of friendlier tomorrows, and the repairers of our broken world." --Lester Edwin J. Ruiz, Director of Accreditation and Global Engagement, The Association of Theological Schools in the US and Canada "Elegantly written, A Future Without Walls surveys the remnants of dysfunctional democracies to encourage collective struggle against phobias, persecution, and violence . . . Snyder writes as a quilter--calling all to mindfulness and accountability in shared labor to bind against the dangers that rip us apart." --Joy James, author of Seeking the 'Beloved Community' and The Womb of Western Theory |
