The Idea of Pure Critique will be invaluable to students of Kant as
well as those interested in Deleuze and Guattari's contribution to
philosophies of difference. More fundamentally, the book presents a
series of stimulating political and philosophical challenges to the
apathy and indifference that pervade modern life. What is required
of critique if it is to overcome indifference? This question
addresses core themes in modern, post-Kantian and European
philosophy, challenging theory's resignation in the face of
contemporary political and economic formations. In this book, Iain
Mackenzie argues eloquently that if such indifference is to be
overcome, critique must first be demarcated in its purity, as an
idea of critique in and of itself. Moreover, for the idea of
critique to become pure we must view it as being essentially the
construction of difference. Only in this pure form, understood as
the construction of difference, can critique hope to overcome the
crushing indifference of our current age.
