The classic analysis of how particular political and cultural ideas come to dominate society
Louis Althusser was born in Algeria in 1918 and died in France in 1990. He taught Philosophy for many years at the Ecole Normale Superieur in Paris, and was a leading intellectual in the French Communist Party.
One reads him with excitement. There is no mystery about his
capacity to inspire the intelligent young.
*Eric Hobsbawm*
Althusser traversed so many lives-so many personal, historical,
philosophical and political adventures; marked, inflected,
influenced so many discourses, actions and existences by the
radiant and provocative force of his thought-that the most diverse
and contradictory accounts could never exhaust their source.
*Jacques Derrida*
