Alain Badiou's Logical Revolts

The Philosophical Militant

Bloomsbury Studies in Philosophy of Religion

By developing a new ontological argument for the existence of God, Joshua R. Sijuwade presents an innovative approach that enriches the existing discourse with fresh insights and a contemporary perspective. The ontological argument seeks to demonstrate the existence of God from an a priori standpoint and Sijuwade begins by addressing the substantial critique the modal argument has received. He embarks on a rigorous exploration, providing needed analysis and a positive iteration termed the 'Rational Ontological Argument', rooted in a novel modal methodology known as Rational Modal Realism. Using this new method, Sijuwade focuses on demonstrating how the central concepts and theories within modal metaphysics and epistemology-such as modal realism, modal rationalism, trope theory and ontological pluralism-offer a means to develop a victorious ontological argument. Employing contemporary analytic methods and suggesting productive directions for further research, Sijuwade makes a key contribution to philosophy of religion and re-invigorates the age-old philosophical argument for the existence of God.

Modality, Ontology and God

The Rational Ontological Argument

If in its simplest form, hermeneutics is a quest for understanding, then part of that quest will always include striving to understand being and the meaning of being. This open access book takes that ambition seriously, arguing that hermeneutics and metaphysics, so central to philosophical thought but so rarely put in tandem, are two complementary fundamentals of human existence. Metaphysical Hermeneutics puts forward the argument for a hermeneutical metaphysics in service of philosophy's basic aim: to make sense of our experience. Jean Grondin builds his argument for this combined discipline around the idea of 'sense' - a theme that is both hermeneutical and metaphysical. What we seek to glimpse is not just a figment of the mind but always the meaning of something. Grondin calls on one of the founding figures of contemporary hermeneutics Hans-Georg Gadamer to test his theories, singling out the metaphysical dimension of Gadamer's ideas and questioning his seeming embrace and rejection of that dimension. Rooting these questions in the human search for meaning is a major contribution to the scope and resources of hermeneutic philosophy. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.

Metaphysical Hermeneutics

Emerging from the twin shadows of neoliberalism and postmodernism, Michael Hauser paints our current historical moment as an interregnum, born of but departing from those two towering modes of late 20th-century culture. Seen in this light, the preoccupation of populism, identity politics, hybrid wars and other contemporary phenomena can be seen as the result of the disintegration of neoliberal agendas and postmodernist sensibilities. Drawing together a vast range of thinkers and theoretical models, from Gramsci to Jameson, Hauser traces the reasons for the decline and demise of the grand narratives of the twentieth century and the ideologies that replaced them. His explanation of the foundational 'epicycloid' and disintegrative 'elliptical' stages of political movements then lays the ground for a deep engagement with Alain Badiou, understanding his 'transitory ontology' as a philosophical response to our interregnum. By expanding and unpicking Badiou's thoughts on mathematics, politics, art, love, and the conditions of doing philosophy, we can imagine a point beyond the present moment in history.

Badiou's Ontology of the Present

Ontological Explorations Routledge Critical Realism

Meta-Reality emerged from the use of critical realist philosophy to address the fundamental philosophical questions; The nature of the self, The limits of thought, The possibility of personal freedom, The role of religion and spirituality in our lives. In this comprehensive introductory text, the originator of meta-Reality Roy Bhaskar talks the reader through the step by step emergence of his philosophy of meta-Reality, from his earlier philosophy of critical realism. The definition of this theory, and its potential to shed new light on issues is then explored in the book's next eight chapters: Identity and the Self Transcendental Identification, Self-Realization and Freedom The Axial Revolution and Modernity Comparative Religion and Spirituality Unfolding the Enfolded: Creativity, Learning and Education Unconditional Love, Peace and Conflict Resolution 'Unthinking' and the Limits of Thought, Spontaneous Right Action and Re-enchanting Reality Conclusion and Summary: Being BeingThroughout this book, the examination of classical philosophical problems helps the reader to fully understand the author's philosophy of meta-Reality, while at the same time exposing the reader to its implications for philosophical inquiry and the wider world. Frequent references are made to the philosophies that it is in conflict with (Descartes, Hobbes and Hume), and their differences are subjected to close scrutiny, helping to situate this new approach in the field. Here Roy Bhaskar has produced an essential text for all students of modern philosophy with an interest in critical realism. The book's comprehensive approach, depth of analysis, and exploration of a wide range of philosophical problems make it crucial and compelling reading for the postgraduate and undergraduate alike.

A Brief Introduction

Meta-Reality

At the beginning of the 20th century, modern science asserted that only matter really exists. Science, philosophy, and culture declared the victory of materialism over all other worldviews. The contemporary world was formatted according to the software of materialism, coupled with Darwinism, capitalism, individualism, and consumerism. This system engendered the infernal cycle of over-exploitation, over-production, and over-consumption, with many negative consequences. After a century of exponential development, contemporary science is now asserting: Matter doesn't really exist. Different interpretations of contemporary physics, as well as the union of the quantum revolution and the information processing revolution, are leading to the revolutionary conclusion that the universe is not made up of matter or material objects but of energy - understood as activity and complex information-processing systems or agents.

From Substantialism to Non-Substantialism

Science Proclaims Materialism Is Dead

There may exist something like the most unbearable of all philosophical thoughts. It is the thought of contingency and universality converging, intersecting, and being one and the same thing, approached from two different perspectives. Hardly anything is as unsettling as the insight into the absolute contingency of the emergence of universals, and the correlative realization that the only true universality is one of the contingency of everything. The goal of this book is to think this unbearable thought through to the end and face up to its most binding and disconcerting consequences. The history of science is full of theoretical unifications of two previously mutually exclusive concepts or two opposite realms (natural and unnatural motion in Galilei, terrestrial and celestial physics in Newton, man and animal in Darwin, electricity and magnetism in Maxwell, mass and energy, space and time, acceleration and gravity in Einstein, etc.). This book is based on the conjecture that what philosophy is lacking is a similar unification of the concepts of "contingency" and "universality." The book will thereby try to accomplish an operation that is implicit in the philosophy of Slavoj Zizek. In doing so, it will provide new answers to questions on the nature of contingency, necessity, predictability of the future, the validity of the laws of nature, the role of singularity in relation to universality, chaos and order, reality and truth. These answers will differ starkly from the ones advocated by contemporary philosophers such as Badiou, Meillassoux, some other speculative realists, and some analytical philosophers of science.
