A withdrawal from the political?; Bibliography; Index 330 $aLyotard and the Political is the first book to consider the full range of the political thought of the French philosopher Franc?ois Lyotard and its broader implications for an understanding of the political. James Williams clearly and carefully traces the development of Lyotard's thought from his early Marxist essays on the Algerian struggle for independence to his break with the thought of Marx and Freud. This is compared with Lyotard's later, highly influential writings on the politics of desire and his attempts to base a postmodern political discourse on the sublime.
