ABSTRACT

I present here sixteen points articulated principally using Decision, a form of combative enunciation called upon by Chairman Mao Tse-tung in 1966, the Khmer Rouge in 1975, Guy Lardreau in 2001 and me for the first time in 2006. (The line has been reconstructed with such clear continuity in order to put others at ease – we know how important it is to be gentle with people, to reassure them, and not to rush them.) These sixteen points are worth no more in themselves taken one by one than when they follow one another in a well-linked continuity: they are some principles, not in the sense of an image of the origin, of the beginning, of a source acting as Principle (with an upper-case P), first principle or even principle of principles, but in the sense of elements, laws, or formulas of an apparatus [dispositif], and also of the theatre of war, the front lines of an army. Against every discipline sired from difference, let this be a mass order of the last instance.
