Description:
Alain Badiou was born in 1937 in Rabat and Jean-Claude Milner in 1941 in Paris. They were both involved in the "Red Years" at the end of the Sixties and both were Maoists, but while Badiou was focusing all his attention on China, Milner was already taking his distance from it. Over the years, that original dispute over the destiny of gauchisme was fueled by deep, new differences between them concerning the role of philosophy and politics. In this wide-ranging and compelling dialogue, these two great thinkers explore the role of politics in today's world and consider the need for a formal theory of communist political organization. Whether they are addressing the era of revolutions, and in particular the Paris Commune and the Chinese Cultural Revolution, or discussing the infinite, the universal, the name "Jew", violence, capitalism, the left, or Europe, Jean-Claude Milner's dyed-in-the-wool skepticism constantly runs up against Alain Badiou's doctrinal passion.This extraordinary debate ultimately leads to new areas of interrogation and shows that there is no better remedy for the crushing power of media-influenced thinking than the revival of the great disputes of the mind.

Fit great
Size: Large, Color: (100) White / White / Halo Gray
Been a couple of months and they seem to be holding up nicely. Real picky about fit of socks and these fit well. They are very thin but very comfortable.

Low quality socks.
Size: Large, Color: (001) Black / Black / Castlerock
I have been buying Under Armour undergarments for years and have noticed a steady decline in quality. These socks are no different. I purchased another six packs of very similar styled Under Armour socks in 2023 and recently they have started wearing out. Those socks are no longer available for reorder, but these extremely similar socks were so I ordered them. The quality difference is obvious just by looking at and feeling them. They are more of a faded black/brown than the black pictured or the black that the three year old socks still are. The material is completely different and feels lighter. When wearing them they already feel like they are bunching up in my shoes, which the old ones never did. I do not expect these to last even a year and will not buy them again.
