No Future
Book • 2004
In 'No Future', Lee Edelman argues for a queer ethics that rejects the dominant political discourse of futurity, which he sees as centered on the figure of the child.
He advocates for queers to embrace their status as figures of negativity, aligning with irony, jouissance, and the death drive.
This stance is presented as a radical alternative to the politics of accommodation and reproductive futurism.
