Publisher Description
Through a series of incisive readings of leading theoretical figures of affirmationism Jacques Derrida, Gilles Deleuze, Bruno Latour, Antonio Negri and Alain Badiou Benjamin Noys contests the tendency of recent theory to rely on affirmation, and especially an affirmative thinking of resistance. He reveals a profound current of negativity that allows theory to return to its political calling.
