Simon Critchley, Infinitely Demanding: Ethics of Commitment, Politics of Resistance Verso, 2008
The Right has very effectively mobilized people on the basis of religion and populism. Could and should the Left learn from this? And could some form of religion serve as the basis for the type of collectivity that could help engender a utopian future? Radical philosopher Simon Critchley talks about the failure of liberal democracy, Obama, neo-anarchism, and his political feud with Slavoj Žižek.
