 If Deleuze indeed presents a penetrating criticism of Heidegger, it lies in the claim that being (Sein) is a unity and not a multiplicity (and in this regard Deleuze’s criticism of Heidegger resembles a great deal that of Derrida who always targets Heidegger’s idea of gathering [Versammlung]). For Deleuze (and perhaps for Derrida as well), the lack of an idea of multiplicity affects Heidegger’s conception of a people. Even if the people in Heidegger are still coming, they will have a proper name that indicates their community will be unified and perhaps closed. In contrast. the people to come in Deleuze (and the democracy to come in Derrida) remain in need of a name which indicates that this people is a genuine multiplicity. Perhaps in these ideas of an always still to be named coming community, we find the enduring influence of Bergson’s “open society.” The most recent moment of the Bergson revitalization follows on the idea of a people. Andrea J. Pitts and Mark William Westmoreland published a volume called: Beyond Bergson: Exploring Race, Gender, and Colonialism through the Writings of Henri Bergson (SUNY 2019).
