The article puts G. Simondon’s work in perspective on three axes: its place within what A. Badiou called the“French philosophical moment” (1943-1991), the relationship between Simondonian concepts and some currents ofthought today and, finally, the way in which these notions are intertwined within the framework of the general theoryof individuation and the technics of the French philosopher. These three axes refer to the need to elaborate a philosophythat is contemporary with the questions posed by its time. According to our hypothesis, Simondon unfolded problemsforeign to his time (1924-1989), but very close to ours.Hence his importance for contemporary philosophy.Key‐words: politics; technics; science; humanism; individuation; transindividual.
