Description
What would happen if we had the opportunity to walk through the revolutionary history of the 20th century and ask its main protagonists seemingly naive questions about love? Why should the most radical revolutionaries fear the radicality of love? What is so radical about the seemingly conservative concept of love? Why is it everything but conservative? Returning to the sexual revolution of the October Revolution and the subsequent repression, to Guevara's dilemma between love and devotion to the revolution, and to the events of '68 and their consequences, Croatian philosopher Srećko Horvat opens a field of ideas that can help us answer these questions. His book is a modest contribution to the current upheavals around the world – from Tahrir to Taksim, from the Occupy movement to Hong Kong, from Athens to Sarajevo – in which the question of love is strangely and surprisingly absent.
