In this book, Jaime Rodriguez Matos proposes the "formless" as a
point of departure in thinking through the relationship between
politics and time. Thinking through both literary and political
writings around the Cuban Revolution, Rodriguez Matos explores the
link between abstract symbolic procedures and various political
experiments that have sought to give form to a principle of
sovereignty based on the category of representation. In doing so,
he proposes the formless as the limit of modern and contemporary
reflections on the meaning of politics while exploring the
philosophical consequences of a formless concept of temporality for
the critique of metaphysics. Rodriguez Matos takes the writing and
thought of Jose Lezama Lima as the guiding thread in exploring the
possibility of a politicity in which time is imagined beyond the
disciplining functions it has had throughout the metaphysical
tradition-a time of the absence of time, in which the absence of
time no longer means eternity.
