Julia Kristeva's 'L'Avenir d'une révolte' defends intimate rebellion
Philosopher and psychoanalyst Julia Kristeva has published 'L'Avenir d'une révolte' (The Future of Revolt), continuing her exploration of the necessity of rebellion. She advocates for a return to infinitesimal revolt within psychic life, thought, creation, and sensibility—that is, within intimacy—while still granting this intimate revolt a political dimension. The book also serves as a response to the violent attacks her work had faced in the United States. The work was released in 1998.
