Tony Fry’s “Political Breakout” strikes like a hammer; it shatters the political paradigms, technocratic illusions, and the cult of ongoing progress, the brittle idols of our time. This book speaks to those willing to stare into the abyss of current crises, confront existential challenges, and find the strength to create anew. Fry calls for rejecting the slavish comforts yet destructive habitus of political thought and action that perpetuates the negation of humanity’s futures. Instead, he advocates for creating a pragmatic vision—a geometry of change—to address the compound of interconnected crises that shape our epoch.
“Political Breakout” dares readers to embrace the dangerous yet exhilarating task of re-imagining the world so there can be a future world. At its core, Fry’s work is a ‘Dionysian’ affirmation of life amidst profound crises, embodying an act of will that seeks to overcome, rather than simply endure, our current precarious conditions of being.
