Abstract
Taguieff Pierre, "Differentialist neo-racism. The ambiguity of a common evidence and its effects: the praising difference". The differentialist ideology, analyzed in recent texts from the "Nouvelle Droite", is the basis for new racist arguments. The "right to praise difference" is a retorsion argument , i.e. bending and returning an argument, and serves as an efficient counter/ argumentation to differentialist anti-racism. Several apparently opposed expressions of racism thus appear : heterophobia (difference rejected) as opposed to heterophilia (difference absolved) ; imperial universalism (colonialism) as opposed to anti-universalism (e.g. apartheid). Five features characterize the general form of racism : rejection of the universal; fixed categorization of individuals; absolutization of differences; naturaliztion of differences: unequal reinterpretation of those.
