Hegel, Lacan, éZiézek

The idea that knowledge must be founded upon the absence of anyreference to an Absolute translates itself today into the veritable disbeliefin the possibility of an articulation between knowledge and desire.

As aconsequence, we witness the disappearance of any form of transmissionwhich could carry forward the word of the New, while we allow ourselves tobe seduced by the profitable and abundant word which secretly relies onan ever-growing debt with the present.

We are invited, therefore, to engageourselves in the task of thinking, in a transmissible way, the current impassesof critical thought - to paraphrase Hegel: to conceptualize what ties us toour current predicament not only as objection but also as object.
