Badiou’s Passage – The End of Antiphilosophy

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This article examines the function of the last antiphilosopher, Lacan, in Badiou’s oeuvre and argues that philosophy is systematically determined by at least two historicizing operators: one it encounters through identifying events taking place in what Badiou calls conditions (they impact philosophy’s concept of truth) and one originating in antiphilosophy (and have an impact on philosophy’s concept of the subject). It is the latter that can help resuscitate philosophy in times of a crisis of philosophy – which is why its two paradigms are Marx(ism) and psychoanalysis. The present article examines Badiou’s concept of philosophy vis-à-vis the latter.
