Description: "From Revolution to Ethics contributes to the largely unwritten history of what is known outside France as "French Theory," not as a matter of disembodied ideas but on the ground of historical events. Showing the significance of the ethical theme to thinkers such as Michel Foucault, Gilles Deleuze, and Felix Guattari, among others, Bourg provides a compelling picture of how May 1968 helped make ethics a compass for navigating contemporary global experience."--Jacket.
