New Titles

Inventaires du communisme (inventories of communism) • François Furet Text established and presented by Christophe Prochasson. 


In January 1995, François Furet published Le Passé d’une illusion, a momentous essay on the idea of communism in the 20th century. Taking stock of the collapse of communism in Central and Eastern Europe and the sharp decline of the communist parties and their ideological influence in the rest of Europe, Furet paints a broad panorama whose focal point is a comparative study of fascism, Nazism and communism. A few months after the book's release, a publisher arranged a meeting between the philosopher Paul Ricoeur and the historian François Furet. The latter's archives have preserved this record of the two men's conversation.

An interview between Michel Foucault and Claude Bonnefoy, 1968 (Text established and presented by Philippe ARTIÈRES) “[…] something absolutely unprecedented occurs in this interview between the philosopher and the critic, something novel, a singular event brought on by speech: the endangerment of Foucault by himself.” - P.

 Passions révolutionnaires. Amérique latine, Moyen-Orient, Inde (revolutionary passions: Latin America, the Middle East and India)
Since the end of the 18th century, Europe has been the main stage for revolutionary passions. Yet during the same period up to the events marking the beginning of the 21st century, the non-European world was also resonating with revolutionary expectations and crises. Through a tri-contintental approach focusing on Latin America, the Middle East and India, the three authors examine revolutionary events, in a continuous dialogue with François Furet's masterful book, The Passing of an Illusion: The Idea of Communism in the Twentieth Century.
