This book traces a dialectic relationship between "politics" and
"antipolitics," the first, as used here, being akin to philosophy
as an activity of open inquiry, plural democracy, and
truth-finding, and the latter in the realm of ideology,
technocracy, and presupposed certainties. It returns back to the
emergence of a New Left movement in the 1960s in order to follow
the history of this relationship since then. It addresses
contemporary debates by looking to the fall of the Berlin Wall and
the Soviet Bloc, and asking in the wake of that: what is a
revolution? Finally, it draws on these analyses to examine the age
of terrorism after the tragedy of September 11, 2001, and resounds
with a call to pursue democracy and real politics in the face of
new forms of antipolitics.
