Rich with analyses of concepts from deconstruction, systems theory,
and post-Marxism, with critiques of fundamentalist thought and the
war on terror, this volume argues for developing a philosophy of
being in order to overcome the quandary of postmodern relativism.
Undergirding the contributions are the premises that ontology is a
vital concept for philosophy today, that an acceptable leftist
ontology must avoid the kind of identity politics that has
dominated recent cultural studies, and that a new ontology must be
situated within global capitalism. A Leftist Ontology offers a
timely intervention in political philosophy, featuring some of the
leading voices of our time. Contributors: Bruno Bosteels, Cornell
