Dialectics beyond Dialectics is a study of contemporary French
philosophy from Bataille to Derrida. It analyses, on the first
level of generalization, the decomposition of Hegelianism
understood as philosophy of totality. Many French philosophers of
the 20th century deconstruct Hegelian dialectics and harshly
criticize the very idea of totality as either dangerous or
impossible. The thesis of the book is that, on doing so, they do
not really break with dialectics, but transform it. On the second
level of generalization, the issue of the book is modernity and the
thesis is that transformations of dialectics reveal transformations
of modern consciousness which - despite hasty declarations on the
end of modernity - still remains ours.
