Claude Lefort cover

This is the first English language volume to offer such a wide-ranging scholarly and intellectual perspective on Claude Lefort. It constitutes the most comprehensive attempt to reconstruct Lefort's engagement with his theoretical interlocutors as well as his influence on today's democratic thought and contemporary continental political philosophy.

'...in Claude Lefort: Thinker of the Political we have a collection of essays that is perpetually circling notions of contingency; of impermanence; of indeterminacy in political and social life; of the dissolution of the markers of certainty; and of a common vocabulary that is rooted not in the resolution of political conflict, but in its negotiation.'
