Nico Israel argues that spirals illuminate the torsions of history and geopolitics within modernity. Taking the form of the spiral not only as his topic but as inspiration for his method, Israel challenges familiar, discipline-based approaches to modernism and its aftermaths and gives twenty-first-century theory an important new spin.
