Abstract
The concept of the subject is very important for the contemporary French philosopher, Alain Badiou, and it is discussed in works such as the theory of the subject, ethics, existence and events, and the logic of worlds. Considering the course of Badiou's thought and the changes in his overall outlook, his explanation of the subject has also undergone obvious differences. The theory of the subject is a work related to the period of Badiou's direct influence from Althusser and Mao, so the description of the subject in this work is also influenced by the Marxist strains of his thought and in relation to social actions and political function. But in existence and occurrence, which can be considered an ontological manifesto with mathematical structures, the characteristics of the subject are taken into consideration from a different perspective and for the first time, they are presented in relation to the truth; A procedure that has been followed later with a different position in the logic of the worlds and prompted us to investigate this course of development. In this article, we have shown how the subject turns from a completely human and political awe in the beginnings of Badiou's view into a finite and material part of the truth in the context of subtractive situations, which despite all the efforts of this philosopher is a place of criticism and ambiguities and due to the relative They should be answered directly with the truth, and Badiou's explanation cannot be fully accepted.
