A classic collection of essay by Jacques Ranciere, that focuses on
the ways in which radical philosophers understand the people they
profess to speak for. The Intellectual and His People engages in an
incisive and original way with current political and cultural
issues, including the "discovery" of totalitarianism by the "new
philosophers," the relationship of Sartre and Foucault to popular
struggles, nostalgia for the ebbing world of the factory, the
slippage of the artistic avant-garde into defending corporate
privilege, and the ambiguous sociological critique of Pierre
Bourdieu. As ever, Rancière challenges all patterns of thought in
which one-time radicalism has become empty convention.
