NANCY FRASER (1947) es una de las representantes más destacadas de la llamada "teoría crítica". Su vida y su obra están atravesadas por un "hilo rojo" compuesto de múltiples cuestiones que la han apasionado desde sus primeros años de activismo político, en la década de los sesenta. Pero, de entre todas ellas, destacan dos, especialmente: las injusticias sociales que asolan la sociedad contemporánea y las contradicciones que produce el sistema capitalista.

Then, while in college in 2013, Derek publicly renounced White nationalism and apologized for their actions and the suffering that they had caused.
