What and how should individuals resist in political situations? Chris Henry brings together the work of Althusser, Badiou and Deleuze in order to offer a new idea of political practice He develops a structural ontology that gives rise to non-idealist, non-dogmatic, yet ethical practices of resistance against the return of classical ontological dualities.
In this rigorous reflection on the form and basis for resistance, Chris Henry gives a critical reading of the most influential political thinkers of our age, including Badiou, Deleuze and Althusser. He arrives at a powerful concept of situated practice, with challenging implications for activists and researchers charting a way between states and resisting individuals and groups. * James Williams, Deakin University *
