Love and the Politics of Care examines the concept of love and its intersections with the practice of care and its psychic, familial, historical and institutional distortions in the context of a neoliberal political system. Care as a form of work is a central line of inquiry, positioning care in its professional contexts and examining the larger institutional conditions within which it functions, often unnoticed, in spaces such as the theatre hall, the prison complex, the urban landscape and the family home.This interdisciplinary exploration of what love means in the 21st century incorporates academic writing and original creative work from established and emerging scholars around the globe. Talking about love across the humanities and social sciences - including literary studies, sociology, psychology, philosophy and gender studies - provides an impetus for renewed investigation of a history of ideas often confined to Western philosophy. In sections on ''Love and Cultures of Marriage'', ''Love and Places of Learning'' and ''Love, Institutions and the State'', authors explore the role of care work in familial, communal and institutional spaces, looking at where love is useful, where love is difficult, what stands in the way of love and where we might hope that the developing of loving practices will take us.>
