Description

At 79 years old, Alain Badiou poses an unexpected question: why should he concern himself with speaking about youth? Yet, in today's world, young people face more choices than ever before. With the decline of old traditions, they must navigate powerful forces that push them towards consumerism or traditionalist reactive forms.

This is a time when young people need to be attentive to the signs of change and have the courage to forge their own paths. Badiou's philosophy offers a way for them to see beyond the constraints of social customs and hierarchical ideas, and instead propose a new direction for their true life.
