'On The Idea Of Communism' - Birkbeck Institute - Jacques Ranciere

[PallaAurinkoon]

actually I got an opportunity to see him at the New School. Much more lucid there, I think it has to do with a level of attention that I haven't been able to engage with for while. Purely symptomatic of post-academic stress syndrome. O.o

Holy shit. Ranciere articulates and speaks faster than I can think...in a second language :[

@PallaAurinkoon

Maybe you should think faster...

But what he says here is not very interesting. It's a poor definition of communism.

His interview by Sylvain George (in french) is the best I've seen.

And if you don't understand what he says, you can also read his books!!
