'This volume of essays offers a thoroughgoing and nuanced account of Nancy's thinking of the political. Nancy's separation of the political from what he calls "the sense of the world" yields one of the most original and important contemporary reconfigurations of the practice of politics, of ethics and of justice.' Ian James, University of Cambridge Examines Jean-Luc Nancy's latest contributions to the study of the political Jean-Luc Nancy's latest contributions to philosophy compel us to inquire afresh what sort of politics we have once we are exposed to the finitude of sense. Assembling a number of influential voices on Nancy today, this collection sheds light on some of the most challenging aspects of Nancy's thought - making previously unexplored connections and offering spirited interpretations. It is focused around three core themes - capitalism; the metaphysics of democracy; and aesthetics - all of which emphasise the potential of Nancy's political thought and collectively situate it within a broader intellectual context which includes engagements with Badiou, Rancière, Foucault, Agamben and Lefort. It is an essential read for anyone interested in current trends in political philosophy, aesthetics, critical theory and social and political thought.
