Towards a New Concept of Existence
Alain Badiou


Tonight I am not going to engage in any kind of criticism. Instead, I 
intend to propose a new
concept of existence. And I shall be as abstract as this intention 
forces me to be. You can find a
less arid but not complete exposition in a chapter of my “Briefings on 
Existence,” and a complete
one in my last book, Logiques des mondes, which is out in French and 
will be published in English
at the end of next year, I hope.
As all of you know perfectly well, the fundamental problem is to 
distinguish on the one hand, being
as such, being qua being, and, on the other hand, existence, as a 
category which precisely is not
reducible to that of being. It is the heart of the matter. This 
difference between being and existence
is often the result of the consideration of a special type of being. It 
is the case for Heidegger, with
the distinction between Sein and Dasein. If we take into account the 
etymological framework, we
can see that “existence,” which depends on Dasein, is a topological 
concept. It means to be here, to
be in the world. And in fact, I also shall propose to determine the very 
general concept of
“existence” by the necessity of thinking the place, or the world, of 
everything which is. And this
place is not deducible from being as such.
