Last week, The Guardian and Verso’s “Radical Thinker” series helped elucidate the work of important critical theorists in short 3-4 minute videos. In the spirit of short and concise educational videos, here’s Alain Badiou explaining the function of money and desire in capitalism.

The video is the work of “Bioecon TV”, which has been “coming soon” since last year.

Correction – The originally headline of this video referred to the video as 2 minutes in length. That video is available here, but not embeddable. The above video is from the same interview.
