Unravelleing the mystery of philsopher Alexandre Kojeve

Boris Groys''s new book is an intellectual biography of the fascinating and mysterious figure of Alexandre Kojeve, discussing his involvement with Hegel's dialectics, his idea of communism and his vision of a universal empire as the end of history. Kojeve proclaimed himself to be a Stalinist and at the same time was one of the creators of the European Union. His anthropology that describes humans as always negating their nature and their identity, and always desiring to be different from what they are, is highly political. It explains why humans can never be fully satisfied by a political system based on their allegedly "natural" rights.
