OBSERVACIONES SOBRE LA DESORIENTACION DEL MUNDO

Descripción

A text that reflects on contemporary reality, the difficulty of dealing with the contingency and complexity of the current world due to its continuous and unexpected changes. This essay, says Alain Badiou, is primarily addressed to all those who are perplexed ... at least since the outbreak of the pandemic ... by the evident disorder of the contemporary world, its complexity and its multiple difficulties, its vain pretensions, its announcements without consequences, its serious unrecognized problems and many other dark details. Through detailed examples ... such as political polarities and protest movements, contemporary feminism, ecology, education, secularism ... and from his own political commitment, the renowned philosopher offers an analysis based on observation and argumentation, starting from the idea that the evident disorder can only be explained if it is considered as an effect of the order from whi h it comes.
