Books by Oliver Marchart

Oliver Marchart presents the main features of Ernesto Laclau's ontology and tracks the development of antagonism from German Idealism via Marx to today's post-Marxism. In doing so, he demonstrates Laclau's significant contribution to the current 'ontological turn' in political thought.

This is a wide-ranging overview of the emergence of post-foundationalism and a survey of the work of its key contemporary exponents.
