Actuality of Communism
Bosteels, Bruno
A new salvo in Verso’s burgeoning series on communism, after Badiou, �i�ek and Groys. One of the rising stars of contemporary critical theory, Bruno Bosteels discusses the new currents of thought generated by figures such as Alain Badiou, Jacques Rancière and Slavoj �i�ek, who are spearheading the revival of interest in Communism. Bosteels examines this resurgence of Communist thought through the prism of “speculative leftism” – an incapacity to move beyond lofty abstractions and thoroughly rethink the categories of masses, classes and state. Debating those questions with writers including Roberto Esposito and Alberto Moreiras, Bosteels also provides a vital account of the work of the Bolivian Vice President and thinker Álvaro García Linera. Reviews “The idea of Communism is rising from its grave once again – but what does it effectively amount to? Bosteels confronts this issue with no illusions, in a critical dialogue with today’s Leftist thinkers, as well as with radical political practices such those of the Morales government in Bolivia. A beautifully written work which is a must for everyone interested in what’s left of the contemporary Left.” – Slavoj �i�ek
