Alain Badiou's Being and Event talked up in Radical Philosophy.
[A]t the level of philosophical form, it surpasses its ambivalent predecessor, Heidegger’s Being and Time, in the rigour of its reactionary modernism. The modernity of Badiou’s mathematics does not mitigate, but rather reinforces, the authoritarianism of his philosophical axiomatics and the mysticism of his conception of the event.
Time, as they say, will tell, how much of an event it was.
