The group of philosophers that arose in 1998 in Paris was oriented towards the Situationist International, Dada and Surrealism, as well as the Frankfurt School, the young Lukács, Hannah Arendt, the work of Gershom Scholem on Jewish mysticism, and, of course, Walter Benjamin. As for modern philosophy, it should be noted the strong influence of the works of Giorgio Agamben, with whom direct contact was established, as well as a fascination with the works of Gilbert Simondon, Gilles Deleuze, and, although not shared by everyone, an interest in the works of Michel Foucault. Fashionable ideologues like Alain Badiou or Slavoj Žižek were ignored, or rather, despised. Soon enough, the question arose about publishing a magazine called "Tiqqun", which was a reference to the tradition of Jewish mysticism, in which the concept of "tikkun olam" meant the correction of a damaged, lost harmony of the world. Here one can detect a messianic reference, shared by Benjamin, but also by the entire Western tradition of criticism, common to anarchism and socialism. "The Empire perceives civil war not as an insult to its majesty or a challenge to its omnipotence, but as an ordinary risk. This explains its constant preventive counter-revolution, which the Empire sets against everything that can accidentally cause holes in the continuous biopolitical fabric."The publishing layout of the book is saved in PDF A4 format.
