"Empire presents itself not as a historical regime originating in conquest, but rather as an order that effectively suspends history and thereby fixes the existing state of affairs for eternity" (Empire xiv). But this is only the perspective of empire on empire itself. [...] I wish to retain the temporal gap or time lag that determines the alternative modality of incorporation into empire of societies for which the history of capital and the history of social power have never been identical.[...] In other words, if "the whatever" has tendentially taken over metropolitan societies, it is active in peripheral societies still only as a dominant horizon.
-Alberto Moreiras
The fact is that in our situation there are, chiefly, either statements that imply the explicit negation of equality (let us call them 'right-wing' statements) or statements which claim to will equality programmatically (let us call them 'left-wing' statements). Both types of statement are opposed to whoever postulates equality and pursues, not the desire for equality, but the consequences of its axiom.
-Alain Badiou
