The Communist Hypothesis

The Communist Hypothesis

â€œWe know that communism is the right hypothesis. All those who abandon this hypothesis immediately resign themselves to the market economy, to parliamentary democracyâ€”the form of state suited to capitalismâ€”and to the inevitable and â€˜naturalâ€™Â character of the most monstrous inequalities.â€â€”Alain BadiouÂ

Alain Badiouâ€™s â€œcommunist hypothesis,â€Â first stated in 2008, cut through the cant and compromises of the past twenty years to reconceptualize the Left. The hypothesis is a fresh demand for universal emancipation and a galvanizing call to arms. Anyone concerned with the future of the planet needs to reckon with the ideas outlined within this book.
