Expelled by the light of an ascendant 'affirmationist consensus’ by thinkers of the left, the powers of the negative are everywhere in disarray. Such, at any rate, is the diagnosis offered by Benjamin Noys in this wonderfully thought provoking little study. T| |Noys' thesis has the virtue of being, once formulated as tightly and consistently as is done here, both original and completely self-evident. It is a thesis that will define, I hope, polemics around and among the factions and currents in contemporary thought f

A compelling critique of contemporary continental theory. Through a series of incisive readings of leading theoretical figures of affirmationism - Jacques Derrida, Gilles Deleuze, Bruno Latour, Antonio Negri and Alain Badiou - Benjamin Noys contests the tendency of recent theory to rely on affirmation, and especially an affirmative thinking of resistance. He reveals a profound current of negativity that allows theory to return to its political calling.
