In this intervention into contemporary philosophy, Alain Badiou rehabilitates the notion of 'being happy', reclaiming it from the blandness of the self-help industry, consumerist trends and the polluted rhetoric politicians. He suggests happiness has been reduced to satisfaction, and satisfaction for Badiou isn't enough; risk, adventure, peril, feeling and experiencing things that go beyond feeling at peace, deliberating disturbing our equilibrium and asking questions of ourselves is where true happiness lies. Badiou also asks a serious political question in his interrogation of happiness: what does it mean, socially and politically, to simply accept one's place in the world?
