- Summary:
- Hope is ubiquitous and valuable in human life. But what is hope, and how can people sustain hope in the face of injustice? This book explores the nature and value of hope under oppression. It addresses what hope is, the value and risks of hope, and hope's relation to other elements of human psychology, including trust, fear, anger, bitterness, faith, and despair. It illustrates the value of hope for both individuals and collectives in the pursuit of justice, and in an increasingly uncertain world.
