Kant
Philosophy and politics
July 4, 2008 - 10:08pm — JustinIs philosophy's relation to politics changing? Two recent online posts have me wondering... The first is a review on NDPR of Allen Wood's book Kantian Ethics, which blurs the line by infusing a scholarly philosophical publication with political invective. The second is a musing in the Daily Kos that 'purity trolls' in the lead-up to this year's US election are in fact a contemporary manifestation of Hegel's notion of a 'beautiful soul'.

Merleau-Ponty, Cognitive Science and Phenomenology
Just released by VDM, this book is about reading Merleau-Ponty with and against contemporary cognitive science, focusing on the role of pathology in Merleau-Ponty's methodology.
The title comes from my attempt to articulate the intercorporeality of perception through the metaphor of invitation.
Vive le livre!
