QUINTERO-HERRERA, Christian Yamid. Love in Badiou: ontology of void, non-sexual relationship and truth. Entramado [online]. 2022, vol.18, n.2, e211.  Epub 16-Oct-2022. ISSN 1900-3803.  https://doi.org/10.18041/1900-3803/entramado.2.8364.

The aim of the current reflection article is to offer a reading of the concept of love in Alain Badiou's thought that mediates and harmonizes the abstract and formal background of his metaontology with his well-known interventions on this concept aimed at the general public. This fills a gap in the literature that analyzes this region of his thinking. The article undertakes this task in three moments: First the connection, which is assumed to exist, between the theory of being as multiplicity and the Lacanian theory of sexuation is explained in order to indicate the continuity and limit between them. After that, we place love in the coordinates of the theory of the event, the subject and the truth. Finally we interpret Badiou's proposal in the light of some elements that come from Plato's theory of love and what we call a communism of difference or minimum.

Palabras clave : Badiou; love; inconsistent multiplicity; sexual difference; event; truth.
