Spinoza, the Transindividual
AvEtienne Balibar
Häftad, Engelska, 2020
337 kr
Skickas
Étienne Balibar, one of the foremost living French philosophers, builds on his landmark work 'Spinoza and Politics' with this exploration of Spinoza's ontology. Balibar situates Spinoza in relation to the major figures of Marx and Freud as a precursor to the more recent French thinker Gilbert Simondon's concept of the transindividual. Presenting a crucial development in his thought, Balibar takes the concept of transindividuality beyond Spinoza to show it at work at both the individual and the collective level.

Plastic Sovereignties
Agamben and the Politics of Aesthetics
AvArne De Boever

Does sovereignty have a future in the 21st century?Through a sustained engagement with the work of the Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben, and against the background of contemporary political phenomena, Arne De Boever explores what positive political possibilities the notion of sovereignty might still hold. Using the philosophy of Catherine Malabou, he argues that these possibilities reside in an aesthetic reconceptualisation of sovereignty as a plastic power that is able to give, receive and explode the forms of our political future.
Machiavellian Ontology
Political Conflict and Philosophy
AvFrancesco Marchesi
Inbunden, Engelska, 2024
1 825 kr
Skickas inom 3-6 vardagar
The twentieth century was the century of the deconstruction of all absolutes: of liberation understood as a critique of every meaningful structure. In this sense, conflict was understood as an instrument of the rupture of every form, institution and community. Niccolo Machiavelli is the first in our tradition to think about the productivity of political conflict its capacity, on the model of ancient Rome, to construct new orders, institutions and forms of life. Francesco Marchesi offers an original reading of Machiavellian thought as well as a critique of some of the most influential contemporary theories of conflict including Foucault, Schmitt, Arendt, Lacan and Althusser. In doing so, he proposes an innovative, conflictual political ontology that, with Machiavelli, is capable of conceiving the affirmative, and not only deconstructive, power of conflict.

Post-Exceptionalism
Art After Political Theology
AvArne De Boever
Inbunden, Engelska, 2025

Skickas inom 7-10 vardagar
Postmodernism has come and gone, but the belief that artists and works of art are exceptional is alive and well. Post-Exceptionalism speculates that this is so because postmodernism, when it declared the death of the author and celebrated the copy, failed to name political theology as its fundamental target. In a time when sovereignty is experiencing a dubious global revival, the moment has come to reconsider the artist and the work of art after political theology in search for a new, worldly, and emancipatory politics of aesthetics.

Power in the Anthropocene
AvLars Tønder
Inbunden, Engelska, 2025
1 161 kr
Skickas inom 7-10 vardagar
Power in the Anthropocene offers a unique approach to the study of power in a time of multiple ecological crises. Drawing on insights from Jane Bennett, Donna Haraway, Bruno Latour, and others, the book introduces a new materialist framework and opens up innovative avenues for expanding democracy and political mobilization. The book is the first of its kind to link the study of power to debates about the Anthropocene, and it outlines a new agenda for interdisciplinary research that combines insights from both the natural sciences and the social sciences, including ecofeminism, sustainability science, indigenous studies, and environmental political theory.

This largely new collection of essays explores how the history of empire has impacted the intellectual life of the Atlantic world through treatments of key figures in Atlantic theory, including Emmanuel Levinas, Frantz Fanon, Richard Wright, James Baldwin, Angela Davis, Leopold Senghor and Edouard Glissant. Out of these critical and comparative readings emerges a portrait of Atlantic theory as a distinct orientation toward complex relations of colonial power, memory of atrocity, negotiation of the aftermath of empire, and the creativity of the oppressed living under impossible conditions of violence.

Temporality and Critique Now
AvAthena Athanasiou
Inbunden, Engelska, 2026
1 072 kr
Skickas inom 7-10 vardagar
Athena Athanasiou attends to the differential conditions of the im-possible as a way to map out discontinuous and fragile trails of critical and agonistic articulations despite the post-critical realism that organises the present.How might we reclaim multiple contingencies, resonances and afterlives of hope and hopelessness for shifting the authorised terms of im-possibility when our present curtails the possibility of imagining differently? How to make way for sites of refuge and passages for critical temporalities?Athanasiou seeks out ways in which the present has yet to occur in these critical times. She does this by putting forth the articulations of critical theory with the social poetics of loss, longing, despair, dissension and resurgent lifeworlds. Drawing on situated knowledges and counter-histories that have taken critical theory towards unfulfilled emancipatory visions for politics, poetics and aesthetics, she repositions future as a provisional, spectral and fugitive figure of critical thought and collective poesis.

The Return of Religion in Contemporary Philosophy
AvGregg Lambert
Häftad, Engelska, 2016
340 kr
Skickas inom 7-10 vardagar
Gregg Lambert examines two facets of the return to religion in the 21st century: the resurgence of overtly religious themes in contemporary philosophy and the global ‘post-secular’ turn that has been taking place since 9/11. He asks how these two ‘returns to religion’ can be taking place simultaneously, and explores the relationship between them. Lambert reflects on statements of these returns from contemporary philosophers including Alain Badiou, John D. Caputo, Jacques Derrida and Jean-Luc Nancy. He discovers a unique – and forboding – sense of the term ‘religion’ that belongs exclusively to our contemporary perspective.
Refusal of Politics

Skickas inom 7-10 vardagar
Denounces contemporary politics through an engagement with political theory, the arts and what it is to live wellDubreuil provocatively proposes an extremist rethinking of the limits of politics – toward a break from politics, the political and policies. He calls for a refusal of politics, suggesting a form of apolitics that would make our lives more liveable.The first chapter situates the refusal of politics in relation to different contemporary theoretical attempts to renew politics, and makes the case for a greater rupture. The second moment takes up what is liveable in life by way of apolitical experience, in contrast to appropriations of the collective, including a discussion of the arts. Finally, Laurent Dubreuil draws up an incomplete inventory of means, forms of existence – often frail and fleeting – that make an exit toward atopia.

From Violence to Speaking Out

Skickas inom 7-10 vardagar
Drawing on a career-long exploration of 1960s French philosophy, Leonard Lawlor seeks a solution to 'the problem of the worst violence'. The worst violence is the reaction of total apocalypse without remainder; it is the reaction of complete negation and death; it is nihilism. Lawlor argues that it is not just transcendental violence that must be minimised: all violence must itself be reduced to its lowest level. He offers new ways of speaking to best achieve the least violence, which he creatively appropriates from Foucault, Derrida and Deleuze and Guattari as ‘speaking-freely’, ‘speaking-distantly’ and ‘speaking-in-tongues’.

Drawing on a range of philosophical, anthropological and political theories, Athena Athanasiou offers a new way of thinking about agonistic performativity with its critical connections to national and gender politics and alongside the political intricacies of affectivity, courage and justice. Through an ethnographic account of the urban feminist and antinationalist movement Women in Black of Belgrade during the Yugoslav wars, she shows that we might understand their dissident politics of mourning as a means to refigure political life beyond sovereign accounts of subjectivity and agency.

The Aesthetics of Delegated Enjoyment

Why do people record TV programmes instead of watching them? Why are former alcoholics pleased to let other people drink in their place? Why can ritual machines pray in place of believers? Robert Pfaller advances the theory of 'interpassivity' as delegated consumption and enjoyment. Applicable to both art and everyday life, the concept allows him to tackle a vast range of phenomena: culture, art, sports and religion. Pfaller criticises dominant assumptions, offers an escape from prevailing ideologies and exposes how cultural capitalism promotes commodities with the promise of happiness.

Reclaiming Wonder
After the Sublime
AvGenevieve Lloyd
Häftad, Engelska, 2018
362 kr
Skickas
A philosophical exploration of wonder: its history, its present condition and its future potentialGenevieve Lloyd illuminates and challenges some perplexing aspects of contemporary attitudes to wonder. Central to her argument is the claim that wonder has come to be largely eclipsed by the allure of the notion of the Sublime a concept closely associated with Romantic Idealism.Lloyd offers us a renewed sense of wonder, reconnected with its philosophical history, that plays a significant role in contemporary social critique. In her path to reclaim wonder, she moves between philosophical and literary sources. She draws especially on Flaubert's responses to Romanticism and his related treatment of stupidity, which influenced the thought of Jean-Paul Sartre, Gilles Deleuze and Jacques Derrida. She also reaches into contemporary debates on refugees, secularisation and climate change.
Arendt, Natality and Biopolitics
Toward Democratic Plurality and Reproductive Justice
AvRosalyn Diprose,Ewa Plonowska Ziarek
Häftad, Engelska, 2018
405 kr
Skickas inom 7-10 vardagar
Rosalyn Diprose and Ewa Ziarek provide a reconfiguration of Hannah Arendt’s philosophy of natality from the perspective of biopolitical and feminist theory. They show us that Arendt provides new ways of contesting biopolitical threats to human plurality and the threat of biopolitics – along with sexism, racism and political theology – to women’s reproductive agency. They extend Arendt’s account of collective political action to include political hospitality, responsibility and story-telling as ways of countering the harms of biopower. Diprose and Ziarek give us an insightful account of the political ontology of Hannah Arendt and form new dialogues between her and major 20th- and 21st-century thinkers including Foucault, Agamben, Nancy, Kristeva, Esposito, Derrida, Levinas and Cavarero.

Worldlessness After Heidegger
Phenomenology, Psychoanalysis, Deconstruction
AvRoland Végsö

375 kr
Skickas inom 11-20 vardagar
Roland Végső opens up a new debate in favour of abandoning the very idea of the world in both philosophy and politics. Opening with a reconsideration of the Heideggerian critique of worldlessness, he goes on to trace the overlooked history of this argument in the works of Hannah Arendt, Sigmund Freud, Jacques Lacan, Jacques Derrida and Alain Badiou. This critical genealogy shows that the post-Heideggerian critique of the phenomenological tradition remained limited by its unquestioning investment in the category of the ‘world’. As a way out of this historical predicament, Végsö encourages us to create affirmative definitions of worldlessness.

Lemm offers an original reading of Nietzsche's enigmatic term homo natura that brings back the ancient Greek idea of nature and sexuality as creative chaos and of the philosophical life as outspoken and embodied truth, perhaps best exemplified by the cynics' embrace of social and cultural transformation.
Trial of Hatred
An Essay on the Refusal of Violence
AvMarc Crépon
Häftad, Engelska, 2021
303 kr
Skickas inom 7-10 vardagar
In this urgently needed book, Marc Crepon addresses the nature of hatred and its manifestations in international and domestic terrorism, racism, war and other forms of violence. Looking at the evidence of violence motivated by hatred, including US racial segregation, South African apartheid and the terrorist attacks in New York City in 2001 and in Paris in 2015, Crepon makes a compelling case for why hatred is the burden of our times.With inspiration from the non-violence resistance movements of Mahatma Gandhi, Nelson Mandela and Martin Luther King Jr., Crepon reveals how philosophy and literature, using courage and a new language, can overcome the many forms of hatred and violence present in our lives today.
