FRANCA NETO, Oswaldo. What would be a Political Subject for Alain Badiou?. Rev. Subj. [online]. 2020, vol.20, n.spe2, pp. 1-10. ISSN 2359-0769.  http://dx.doi.org/10.5020/23590777.rs.v20iesp2.e8813.

Having as reference some fundamental texts of the work of Alain Badiou, this article seeks to understand what would be, for the philosopher, a subject in the field of politics. To guide the discussion, he initially proposes a provisional differentiation between left and right, then seeks to establish how we could understand the opposition between politics and the State in his writings, understanding that, in his theory, politics develops from what is presented as excess concerning the state organization chart. From this context, and correlating the concepts of event, subjective body, and truth, he develops a conception of how a political subject would act, unfolding a typology for him. In the end, it outlines a correlation of this concept of the subject with contemporary humanism and capitalism.
