The revolution is it finished with the disappearance of political transcendence? Or does she leave a utopian hope? This book deals instead of revolution as "the real movement which abolishes the present state" (Marx and Engels). According to his argument, the events of 1980-90 that ended the Soviet Union and Iron Curtain were a "negative revolution." This revolution has not left a given product, but it produced an upheaval both historical and deep unconscious. It was a recovery and a continuation of the trend of the Revolution masterful modern world internalization or internalization of negativity around the world. The book develops this argument through the comparison between the socio-psychological and ideological Russia for years 1980-90 and that of revolutionary France of the 1790s and shows how well the melancholy becomes a symptom of the revolution. Finally, the logical-hermeneutic approach to the philosophical concept of revolution makes visible the intimate connection between the notion of event and the logic of negativity in the work of Badiou, Benjamin, Hegel, Kant and so on. The book ends with a close reading and innovative texts that Kant devoted to the French Revolution.
