Many contemporary philosophers - including Michel Foucault, Jacques
Derrida, and Giorgio Agamben - ascribe an ethical or political value
to anarchy, but none ever called themselves an “anarchist.” It is
as if anarchism were unmentionable and had to be concealed, even
though its critique of domination and of government is poached by the
philosophers.
_Stop Thief!_ calls out the plundering of anarchism by philosophy.
It’s a call that is all the more resonant today as the planetary
demand for an alternative political realm raises a deafening cry. It
also alerts us to a new philosophical awakening. Catherine Malabou
proposes to answer the cry by re-elaborating a concept of anarchy
articulated around a notion of the “non-governable” far beyond an
inciting of disobedience or common critiques of capitalism. Anarchism
is the only way out, the only pathway that allows us to question the
legitimacy of political domination and thereby wfree up the confidence
that we need if we are to survive.
