[[Alain]] [[Badiou]] is one of the leading [[philosophers]] in the [[world]] today. His ground-breaking [[philosophy]] is based on a creative [[reading]] of set [[theory]], offering a new [[understanding]] of what it means to be [[human]] by promoting an ‘intelligence of change’. Badiou’s [[philosophical]] [[system]] makes our capacity for [[revolution]] and novelty central to who we are, and develops an [[ethical]] [[position]] that aims to make us less anxious [[about]] this very capacity.
This book presents a comprehensive and engaging account of Badiou’s philosophy, including an in-depth [[discussion]] of ''The Theory of the [[Subject]]'', ''[[Being]] and [[Event]]'' and ''Logics of Worlds''. In a clear and careful [[analysis]], Ed Pluth considers exactly how Badiou’s [[theoretical]] ‘anti-humanism’ is linked up to what is, for all intents and purposes, a [[practical]] [[humanism]]. Central to this is an account of Badiou’s theory of [[The Subject|the subject]], and his attempt to develop an ‘[[ethic]] of truths’. The [[role]] of [[set theory]], [[Marxism]], and [[Lacanian]] [[psychoanalysis]] in Badiou’s philosophy is also given close attention.
