Struggle and Utopia at the End Times of Philosophy Paperback / softback
by Francois Laruelle
Part of the Univocal series
Paperback / softback
Description
Very few thinkers have traveled the heretical path that François Laruelle walks between philosophy and non-philosophy.
For Laruelle, the future of philosophy is problematic, but a mutation of its functions is possible.
Up until now, philosophy has merely been a utopia concerned with the past and only provided the services of its conservation.
We must introduce a rigorous and nonimaginary practice of a utopia in action, a philo-fiction—a close relative to science fiction.
From here we can see the double meaning of the watchword, a tabula rasa of the future.
This new destination is imposed by a specifically human messianism, an eschatology within the limits of the Man-in-person as antihumanist ultimatum addressed to the History of Philosophy.
This book elucidates some of the fundamental problems of non-philosophy and takes on its detractors.
