Both a unique witness of transformative events in the late 20th century, and a prescient analysis of our present economic crises from a major French philosopher, Michel Henry's From Communism to Capitalism adds an important economic dimension to his earlier social critique. It begins by tracing the collapse of communist regimes back to their failure to implement Marx's original insights into the irreplaceable value of the living individual. Henry goes on to apply this same criticism to the surviving capitalist economic systems, portending their eventual and inevitable collapse.
The influence of Michel Henry's radical revision of phenomenological thought is only now beginning to be felt in full force, and this edition is the first English translation of his major engagement with socio-economic questions. From Communism to Capitalism reinterprets politics and economics in light of the failure of socialism and the pervasiveness of global capitalism, and Henry subjects both to critique on the basis of his own philosophy of life. His notion of the individual is one that, as subjective affect, subtends both Marxist collectivism and liberalism simultaneously. In addition to providing a crucial economic elaboration of Henry's influential social critiques, this work provides a context for understanding the 2008 financial shock and offers important insights into the political motivations behind the 'Arab spring'.

亨利的生命现象学可以说是惊天地泣鬼神,对胡塞尔、海德格尔和列维纳斯的现象学进行了驳斥,然而却在实践中存在众多张力。通过阅读亨利的作品,很难区分他的生命现象学到底是实然性的还是应然性的,如果是应然性的,那么他就不能用理论反驳现实,因为不管是在民主国家抑或是纳粹国家,生命的显现都是存在的,如果说一种类型要高于另一种,那么就需要最高的层次来辩护,这就直接与亨利的晚期神学三部曲想吻合。亨利这种一切以生命的... 亨利的生命现象学可以说是惊天地泣鬼神,对胡塞尔、海德格尔和列维纳斯的现象学进行了驳斥,然而却在实践中存在众多张力。通过阅读亨利的作品,很难区分他的生命现象学到底是实然性的还是应然性的,如果是应然性的,那么他就不能用理论反驳现实,因为不管是在民主国家抑或是纳粹国家,生命的显现都是存在的,如果说一种类型要高于另一种,那么就需要最高的层次来辩护,这就直接与亨利的晚期神学三部曲想吻合。亨利这种一切以生命的理性的为准的现象学很难让人不去想纳粹,他虽然批评纳粹甚至任何民主政体都是对生命的遮蔽,然而如果不是他的理论中神学的因素,那么亨利不是生命的先知而是狂热的疯子。 (展开)
