Theory of Identities by François Laruelle,Alyosha Edlebi

By François Laruelle,Alyosha Edlebi

François Laruelle proposes a concept of identification rooted in clinical notions of symmetry and chaos, emancipating notion from the philosophical paradigm of Being and reconnecting it with the true global. not like such a lot modern philosophers, Laruelle doesn't think language, heritage, and the realm form id yet that identification determines our relation to those phenomena.

Both severe and constructivist, Theory of Identities unearths fault with modern philosophy’s reductive relation to technological know-how and its attachment to notions of singularity, distinction, and multiplicity, which extends this crude procedure. Laruelle’s new idea of technology, its items, and philosophy introduces an unique vocabulary to complex the thoughts of choice, fractality, and synthetic philosophy, between different principles, grounded in an realizing of the renewal of identification. Laruelle’s paintings maintenance the rift among philosophical and clinical inquiry and rehabilitates the idea that of id that continental philosophers have greatly criticized. His argument positions him truly opposed to Deleuze, Badiou, the hot materialists, and different thinkers who stray too faraway from empirical methods that would in a different way revitalize philosophy’s functional applications.
