Eustache Kouvelakis, Contemporary Individuality : Between Resistance and Withdrawal Contemporary individuality is conditioned by the tendency towards « abstract individualization » produced by capitalist social relations and an historic defeat which has terminated a period of struggle against prevailing systems.

These new forms of resistance, indissociably individual and social in character, have realigned the boundaries between political practice, aesthetics and ethics. emergence of new forms of resistance to the disintegrating forces.
