| Sumario: | This paper highlights Badiouian philosophy of the subject by making use of the model of Paulinian vocation. The Badiouian subject is not defined prior to its vocation but is made a subject by the call to revolutionary movement. In the Paulinian model, Paul is called by the risen Jesus, and Paul pursued that call by building a community defined by faith and not by law. The universal community is marked by indifference to the differences of its members. The Badiouian contribution to the social movement is clearly the presentation of the vocation of Saint Paul in building a new humanity based on equality and inclusiveness. |
