THE INTELLECTUAL AND HIS PEOPLE - JACQUES RANCI...

A classic collection of essay by Jacques Ranciere  that focuses on the ways in which radical
philosophers understand the people they profess to speak for. The Intellectual and His People
engages in an incisive and original way with current political and cultural issues  including
the discovery of totalitarianism by the new philosophers  the relationship of Sartre and
Foucault to popular struggles  nostalgia for the ebbing world of the factory  the slippage of
the artistic avant-garde into defending corporate privilege  and the ambiguous sociological
critique of Pierre Bourdieu. As ever  Ranciere challenges all patterns of thought in which
one-time radicalism has become empty convention.
