The Persistence of the Negative: A Critique of Contemporary Continental Theory

The Persistence of the Negative: A Critique of Contemporary Continental Theory by Benjamin Noys
English | September 13, 2010 | ISBN: 0748638636, 0748649042 | True EPUB | 208 pages | 1.2 MB

Through a series of incisive readings of leading theoretical figures of affirmationism – Jacques Derrida, Gilles Deleuze, Bruno Latour, Antonio Negri and Alain Badiou – Benjamin Noys contests the tendency of recent theory to rely on affirmation, and especially an affirmative thinking of resistance. He reveals a profound current of negativity that allows theory to return to its political calling.
