Offering a piercing indictment of what we have let ourselves
become, this short, critical work is a damning critique of the
current age and of the democratic systems that characterize it.
Alain Badiou argues that any truly radical politics must begin with
dismantling the obscene (or pornographic) qualities of neoliberal
capitalism. In The Pornographic Age he asks us to hold up a mirror
to ourselves and confront the debasement of the political realities
in which we live, the shock of which must galvanize us into action.
It is only through this realization, this crucial confrontation
with the perversity with which we conduct our daily lives that we
can prompt true revolution. Including an afterword from
international Badiou scholars A. J. Bartlett and Justin Clemens and
a commentary by William Watkin, this book is a philosophical call
to arms: Badiou's radical indictment of the current age is an
exciting, no-holds-barred exploration of both how we live and how
we might live.
