Abstract

FILLOY, Constanza. The Introduction of Void in the Philosophy of Alain Badiou: On the Transformation of the Problem of the One and the Multiple. Diánoia [online]. 2019, vol.64, n.83, pp.153-164.  Epub Apr 13, 2020. ISSN 0185-2450.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iifs.18704913e.2019.83.1598.

In the following, I explore the idea that Alain Badiou’s singular position regarding the problem of the one and the multiple is inseparable from the definition of void as the name of being. I propose that the concept of void links the inconsistent multiple with mathematics qua ontology in Badiou’s philosophical project. In this sense, I consider the assertion that mathematics is ontology to analyze the movement in which philosophy abandons the task of producing truths to focus on its non-philosophical conditions and the truths generated in truth processes.

Keywords : ontology; being; conditions; presentation.
