A new century, new threats to love . . . Love without risks is like war without deaths - but, today, love is threatened by an alliance of liberalism and hedonism. Caught between consumerism and casual sexual encounters devoid of passion, love - without the key ingredient of chance - is in danger of withering on the vine. In In Praise of Love, Alain Badiou takes on contemporary 'dating agency' conceptions of love that come complete with zero-risk insurance - like US zero-casualty bombs. He develops a new take on love that sees it as an adventure, and an opportunity for re-invention, in a constant exploration of otherness and difference that leads the individual out of an obsession with identity and self. Liberal, libertine and libertarian reductions of love to instant pleasure and non-commitment bite the dust as Badiou invokes a supporting cast of thinkers from Plato to Lacan via Karl Marx to form a new narrative of romance, relationships and sex - a narrative that does not fear love.

Philosophie de la marche

By: Antoine DE BAECQUE,David LE BRETON,Sylvain TESSON,Frédéric GROS,Sarah MARQUIS,Martine SEGALEN,Nicolas TRUONG

L'aventurière Sarah Marquis déclare qu'en marchant, on "se découvre courageux", le sociologue David Le Breton pense que la marche est souvent guérison... Pratique sportive ou spirituelle, touristique ou thérapeutique, la marche retrouve aujourd’hui ses lettres de noblesse. Pourquoi marche-t-on ? Qu’y cherche-t-on ? Échappatoire au monde de la vitesse et à la modernité, la marche pousse aussi bien à se dépasser physiquement qu’à entreprendre un chemin spirituel. « Puissance réorganisatrice » ou façon de « tenir debout », « interstice » de « liberté » dans un monde privé d’imprévu... Les auteurs de cet ouvrage dirigé par le journaliste du Monde Nicolas Truong nous exposent le sens de « leur » marche. L'ouvrage est dirigé par Nicolas Truong, journaliste du Monde. Il est consituté d'entretiens ou de tribunes publiées dans le quotidien. Les contributeurs sont Jean-Loup Amselle, Marc Augé, Antoine De Baecque, Frédéric Gros, David Le Breton, Sarah Marquis, Martine Segalen et Sylvain Tesson.
