IN THIS bite-sized book of barely 100 pages, French intellectual Alain Badiou offers an accessible radical analysis of the state of the world.
The former Maoist answers questions from the sceptical, but open-minded, anti-communist Peter Engelmann and, in allowing Badiou to tackle some commonly held prejudices on the big questions of capitalism, communism, fascism, liberalism and Islamism, it’s a format that works very well.
