A Treasury of Ibn Taymiyyah

Silvia M. Mendes

Vanessa S. Fraga

This volume addresses the pervasive injustices that shape our contemporary world, exploring how structural and systemic oppression is normalized and obscured through hegemonic power, cultural dominance and psychological manipulation. Drawing on critical theorists such as Mbembe, Gramsci, Freire and Fanon, contributors analyze how marginalized groups—including Indigenous peoples, ethnic minorities, women, youth, the disabled and political activists—are systematically othered and oppressed. From climate injustices to state-sanctioned violence, the chapters unearth the lived experiences of those at the intersections of globalized injustice while highlighting the resilience and resistance that emerge in such conditions. Through critical-theoretical lenses, this volume challenges dominant discourses, amplifies voices of resistance and emphasizes the importance of witnessing injustice as an ethical and political act. It invites readers to recognize oppression, foster solidarity, and embrace the possibility of transformation, echoing Paulo Freire’s assertion that dehumanization is not inevitable but a call to action.
