When we relate love to jealousy and jealousy to love, we should be aware that there is a constant wish, or even desire, to “save” love from jealousy. Moreover, that the notion of jealousy has negative connotations: that jealousy is something that can wound the other; that jealousy is something one should be ashamed of (perhaps, being aggressive); that jealousy is something one should be fearful of (perhaps, being excluded); and what I consider as the most important – that because of jealousy one might suffer from being subject/ed to a kind of affection that is considered as “craziness,” but not any kind of craziness – the “craziness” that is at the same time craziness and banality. Being common. Being a common being.

The book brings back the interest in the “radical concepts” in politics to the intellectual debate after 6 years. Kolozova builds on the hybridization of the epistemic stance of “radical concepts” inspired by Laruelle'`s “non-philosophy” and “non-Marxism” as well as the “realism” inspired by Zizek and Badiou. Kolozova explores these terms through the lenses of Judith Butler`s politics of grief and “identification with the suffering itself.” Radical concepts, the political vision and the theory based on them, are always already succumbing to the "Lived" (Laruelle), to the singularity of the Event (Badiou), to the encounter with the "kernel of the Real" (Zizek) conditioning a political horizon and the grand and small political narratives taking place within it. The thesis of the book is that the instances of the "lived," the "event" or the "Real" can be inherently inter-connected by virtue of the category of the "experience" which is an instance of the sheer lived, the bare being subjected to an occurrence which is always already an instance of trauma.

Women are historically invisible, socially and politically feeble, culturally mute and insignificant. These are the signals that traditional male ideology sends. However in spite of their historical invisibility, in times of stress, war and crisis, women carry the burden of truth - the kind of truth that neither the victors nor the defeated write. The truth written by those responsible for continuation and salvation of the progeny, culture and future. Can oral history truly correspond to the official version? Can oral documents be as valid as written documents, having in mind that they are narrated in a typically female manner in a typically male society?
