Radical thinkers: For the philosopher Simon Critchley, profound disappointment
is to be found at the heart of every modern liberal democracy. Author and
philosopher Federico Campagna takes his book Infinitely Demanding as a cue to
discuss modern interpretations of anarchism, and how it can be at home in a
domestic setting. For a discussion on our Facebook group regarding this book, please see here.

Infinitely Demanding: Ethics of Commitment, Politics of
Resistance by Simon Critchley
A new political ethics that confronts the injustices of
liberal democracy.
The clearest, boldest and most systematic statement of Simon
Critchley’s influential views on philosophy, ethics, and politics, Infinitely
Demanding identifies a massive political disappointment at the heart of liberal
democracy. Arguing that what is called for is an ethics of commitment that can
inform a radical politics, Critchley considers the possibility of political
subjectivity and action after Marx and Marxism, taking in the work of Kant,
Levinas, Badiou and Lacan. Infinitely Demanding culminates in an argument for
anarchism as an ethical practice and a remotivating means of political
organization.
