In 1980, at the end of the most intensely political period of his
work and life, Louis Althusser penned Philosophy for
Non-philosophers. Available here for the first time in English,
Philosophy for Non-philosophers constitutes a rigorous and engaged
attempt to address a wide reading public unfamiliar with
Althusser's project. As such, the work is a concentration of the
most fundamental theses of Althusser's own ideas, and presents a
synthesis of his sprawling and disparate philosophical and
political writings. Nowhere else does Althusser push the
distinction between philosophy and other disciplines as far, or
develop in such detail the concept of 'practice'. Rather than a
work of 'popular philosophy', Philosophy for Non-philosophers is a
continuation and conglomeration of Althusser's thought; a thought
whose radicality is still perceptible in those that have followed
since. Philosophy for Non-philosophers thus provides a vivid
encapsulation of Althusser's seminal influence on the leading
thinkers of today, including Ranciere, Badiou, Balibar, and Zizek.
