Description

Very few thinkers have traveled the heretical path that François Laruelle walks between philosophy and non-philosophy.

For Laruelle, the future of philosophy is problematic, but a mutation of its functions is possible.

Up until now, philosophy has merely been a utopia concerned with the past and only provided the services of its conservation.

We must introduce a rigorous and nonimaginary practice of a utopia in action, a philo-fiction—a close relative to science fiction.

From here we can see the double meaning of the watchword, a tabula rasa of the future.

This new destination is imposed by a specifically human messianism, an eschatology within the limits of the Man-in-person as antihumanist ultimatum addressed to the History of Philosophy.

This book elucidates some of the fundamental problems of non-philosophy and takes on its detractors.
