The Concept in Crisis by Nick Nesbitt

The contributors to The Concept in Crisis-who include Alain Badiou, Etienne Balibar, Emily Apter, Warren Montag, and Bruno Bosteels-reconsider the landmark 1965 work Reading Capital and renew its call for a symptomatic critique of capitalism and culture for the twenty-first century.
"The Concept in Crisis is an excellent collection of articles on Reading Capital and other texts by AlthusserThe articles do a great job of opening up new fields of enquiry in Althusser’s writings and reinvent Althusser for the contemporary conjuncture. Each article is written in very clear language and provides enough context to be accessible to the non-specialist."  - Fabian Van Onzen (Marx & Philosophy Review of Books)
Nick Nesbitt is Professor of French at Princeton University and the author of, most recently, Caribbean Critique: Antillean Critical Theory from Toussaint to Glissant.
