ABSTRACT This essay investigates thought as an event of “multiplicity.” French philosophers Gilles Deleuze and Alain Badiou pose this as a concept of change (political and otherwise). Both philosophers propose that multiplicity means thinking happens as an event by engaging a theoretical impasse, or “un-thought.” Un-thought opens up and changes ideas into complex varieties or multiplicities. This dynamic is examined through the example of May ‘68, an actual event that gives context to how multiplicity expresses “radical change.” The aim of this article is to see how both thinkers’ theories overlap. For Badiou, multiplicities are “truths” that happen whilst making a decision, engaging a notion of “point.” For Deleuze, multiplicities are concepts that happen materially in life as metaphysical forces, or “lines.” Multiplicity is critically approached as a complex variety of ideas that change in the forms of art, politics, and science.

（非）思想的多样性：巴迪欧、德勒兹、事件

摘要 本文将思想作为一个“多样性”事件进行研究。法国哲学家吉尔·德勒兹和阿兰·巴迪欧将此视为变革的概念（政治和其他方面）。两位哲学家都提出，多样性意味着思维通过陷入理论僵局或“未思考”而作为一个事件发生。非思想打开并将思想转变为复杂的变体或多样性。通过 68 年 5 月的例子来检验这种动态，这是一个实际事件，它为多样性如何表达“根本变化”提供了背景。这篇文章的目的是看看两位思想家的理论是如何重叠的。对于巴迪欧来说，多样性是在做出决定时发生的“真相”，涉及“点”的概念。对于德勒兹来说，多样性是在生活中作为形而上学力量或“线条”在物质上发生的概念。
