Que serait une communauté sans présupposés, sans conditions d'appartenance, sans identité? Peut-on imaginer une communauté faite d'hommes qui ne revendiquent pas une identité (être français, rouge ou musulman)? Comment penser désormais une communauté formée par des singularités quelconques, c'est-à-dire parfaitement déterminées, mais sans concept ou une propriété puisse(...)

Summary:
Malpas follows the development of Heidegger's topology through three stages: the early period of the 1910s and 1920s, through Being and Time, centered on the "meaning of being"; the middle period of the 1930s into the 1940s, centered on the "truth of being"; and the late period from the mid-1940s on, when the "place of being" comes to the fore.

(Malpas also challenges the widely repeated arguments that link Heidegger's notions of place and belonging to his entanglement with Nazism.) The significance of Heidegger as a thinker of place, Malpas claims, lies not only in Heidegger's own investigations but also in the way that spatial and topographic thinking has flowed from Heidegger's work into that of other key thinkers of the past 60 years.

Summary:
The Swiss-Italian economist Christian Marazzi is one of the core theorists of the Italian postfordist movement, along with Antonio Negri, Paolo Virno, and Bifo (Franco Berardi). But although his work is often cited by scholars (particularly by those in the field of "Cognitive Capitalism"), his writing has never appeared in English. This translation of his most recent work, Capital and Language (published in Italian in 2002), finally makes Marazzi's work available to an English-speaking audience. Capital and Language takes as its starting point the fact that the extreme volatility of financial markets is generally attributed to the discrepancy between the "real economy" (that of material goods produced and sold) and the more speculative monetary-financial economy. But this distinction has long ceased to apply in the postfordist New Economy, in which both spheres are structurally affected by language and communication. In Capital and Language Marazzi argues that the changes in financial markets and the transformation of labor into immaterial labor (that is, its reliance on abstract knowledge, general intellect, and social cooperation) are just two sides of the same coin. Capital and Language focuses on the causes behind the international economic and financial depression of 2001, and on the primary instrument that the U.S. government has since been using to face them: war. Marazzi points to capitalism’s fourth stage (after mercantilism, industrialism, and the postfordist culmination of the New Economy): the "War Economy" that is already upon us.

Summary:
Pour Peter Sloterdijk, l'année 1492 sonne le début de cette «mondialisation» qui a été précédée, du point de vue scientifique, par «l'arrondissement» d'une planète que l'on croyait plate. Esprit d'entreprise et goût du risque caractérisaient ce phénomène d'abord porté par des découvreurs et des investisseurs, et qui a pris aujourd'hui une tournure essentiellement économique. Dans la phase finale de la globalisation, le système mondial s'est totalement épanoui ; il donne à toutes les formes de la vie les traits du capitalisme. Peter Sloterdijk utilise le Palais de Cristal de Londres, lieu de la première exposition mondiale de 1851, comme métaphore extrêmement éloquente de cette situation : le palais symbolise le caractère inévitablement exclusif de la globalisation, la création d'une structure de confort, c'est-à-dire la construction d'un espace intérieur prenant l'aspect d'une «gelée hyperactive» qui avale les humains devenus des consommateurs, un milliard et demi de gagnants de la globalisation - ils sont trois fois plus nombreux à attendre devant la porte. «Le fait central des Temps modernes n'est pas que la Terre tourne autour du soleil, mais que l'argent court autour de la Terre.» Avec les moyens d'un grand récit d'inspiration philosophique, Peter Sloterdijk trace les contours d'une théorie du temps présent.
