Butler is an exceptional thinker who aims to build more inclusive and sustainable societies through their writing. Their writings influenced numerous fields, e.g., sociology, gender studies, politics, and the arts. The editorial introduction juxtaposes earlier and subsequent writings by Butler in order to encourage a wider reading of their work.
