This compelling and highly original book represents a confrontation between two of the most radical thinkers at work in France today: Alain Badiou and the author, François Laruelle.
At face value, the two have much in common: both espouse a position of absolute immanence; both argue that philosophy is conditioned by science; and both command a pluralism of thought.
Anti-Badiou relates the parallel stories of Badiou »s Maoist »ontology of the void » and Laruelle »s own performative practice of »non-philosophy » and explains why the two are in fact radically different. Badiou »s entire project aims to re-educate philosophy through one science: mathematics. Laruelle carefully examines Badiou »s
Being and Event and shows how Badiou has created a new aristocracy that crowns his own philosophy as the master of an entire theoretical universe. In turn, Laruelle explains the contrast with his own non-philosophy as a true democracy of thought that breaks philosophy »s continual enthrall with mathematics and instead opens up a myriad of »non-standard » places where thinking can be found and practised.
