“Non-philosophy is a concept developed by French philosopher François Laruelle (formerly of the Collège international de philosophie and the University of Paris X: Nanterre) throughout the 1980s and 1990s. Laruelle’s non-philosophy, he claims, should be considered to philosophy what non-Euclidean geometry is to the work of Euclid. It stands in particular opposition to philosophical heirs of Jacques Lacan such as Alain Badiou.”
Keywords: occasionalism, performativity, non-philosophy, psychoanalysis, cloning, Husserl, epistemology, ontology, Heidegger, phenomenology, transcendence, Nietzsche, Kant, non-Euclidean geometry, metaphysics.
