Abstract:
Capital Times analyzes the social and political processes involved in conceptions of time in ancient and medieval tradition and sets them in the context of contemporary political and philosophical debates centering on the thought of Kant and Marx. Witty and learned, Alliez's ambitious work forces us to reevaluate the philosophical and historical status of time in Western culture.
