Badiou and His Interlocutors

Suitable for both newcomers to Badiou and seasoned scholars, this collection is a valuable addition to the literature on this living philosopher. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through faculty. * CHOICE *
Badiou and His Interlocutors is an excellent, original collection that promises to nudge Badiou out of the European and North American contexts that have dominated his reception and into dialogue with a novel set of social and political concerns in Australia and New Zealand. * Adam Miller, Professor of Philosophy, Collin College, USA *
This book contains both fascinating new writing by, and interviews with, Badiou himself, together with essays that engage with Badiou by leading scholars in the field. That the book is presented and edited by real Badiou specialists makes it particularly exciting. -- Nick Hewlett, Professor of French Studies, University of Warwick, UK
Featuring new material by Badiou alongside critical commentaries on relatively neglected aspects of his thought-specifically history, sex, and gender- this volume highlights the multi-facetedness of Badiou's work. It will be essential reading for specialists but also an accessible entry point for non-specialists. -- Ray Brassier, Professor of Philosophy, American University of Beirut, Lebanon
