Marcel Mauss' 'Essai sur le don' (1923--4) has become one of the
central non-philosophical references of contemporary French
philosophy. Deleuze (and Guattari) and Derrida, to cite only two,
engage with the concept of the gift explicitly and repeatedly.
Gerald Moore shows how the problematic of the gift drives and
illuminates the last century of French philosophy. By tracing the
creation of the gift as a concept, from its origins in philosophy
and the social sciences, right up to the present, Moore shows its
central importance for a poststructuralist understanding of the
relation between philosophy and politics.
