  • Through the Zone of Nonbeing: a Reading of Black Skin, White Masks in Celebration of Fanon’S Eightieth Birthday*
    Through the Zone of Nonbeing: A Reading of Black Skin, White Masks in Celebration of Fanon’s Eightieth Birthday* LEWIS R. GORDON Introduction anon was an ironic writer who was struggling with the complex question of paradoxical reason Fand paradoxical history. The modern collapse of “Reason” and “History” into all things European represented a failure of Reason and History that required self-deception regarding Europe’s scope. Put differently: Europe sought to become ontological; it sought to become what dialecticians call “Absolute Being.” Such Being stood in the way of human being or a human way of being. It thus presented itself as a theodicy. Theodicy is the branch of inquiry that attempts to account for the compatibility of God’s omnipotence, omniscience, and goodness in the face of injustice and evil. There are several formulations of the problem: If God has the power to do something about injustice and evil, why doesn’t He? If God has created everything, and God is perfect, how could God create imperfect (often evil) beings? If God has foreknowledge, how could we continue to insist on God’s goodness when He had advanced knowledge of the consequences of his creation? There have been many classical efforts to address this problem. The most influential has been St. Augustine’s insistence, in The City of God, that God’s love for humanity required human freedom, and freedom requires the ability to do right or wrong. The problem does not only emerge in the Western tradition. Among the Akan of Ghana, for instance, the problem emerges as well, and solutions similar to St.

  • HUSSERVS CRISIS of WESTERN SCIENCE Editor's Preface This
    Appendix I ALFRED SCHUTZ HUSSERVS CRISIS OF WESTERN SCIENCE Edited by FRED KERSTEN Editor's Preface This letter of Alfred Schutz to Erlc Voegelin was written between 11 November and 13 December, 1943. It contains an extensive reply to a sweeping critique of Husserl's Die Krisis der europl1ischen WlSsenschaften und die transzend­ entale Phllnomenologie1 which his friend Erlc Voegelin had developed in a letter to him. Voegelin had found merit in some of Husserl's lines of thought but on the whole rejected them as much in their references to historlcal trends in European philosophy, which he showed to be arbitrarily selective and hence at variance with historio­ graphical facts and objectivity, as in their philosophical inferlority because they were merely epistemological under­ takings and as such did not reach the level of genuine philosophizing (i.e., they did not constitute a metaphysics). Schutz's defense of Husserl followed two lines of thought: First, that Voegelin misunderstood the whole philosophical intent of Husserl when he considered his interest in past philosophers as serving historiographical interests instead of interest in the problems they had posed; and, second, even if the whole philosophy of Husserl could be subsumed under the heading of epistemology, it would still maintain its high philosophical respectability. At the very end of the letter Schutz spoke of the possibility of continuing this defense of Husserl's way of philosophizing in a further letter. However, no evidence has surfaced to indicate that he found the time to continue his attempt at vindicating Husserl's philosophical dignity. 1 Edmund Husserl, Philosophia, 1936.

  • A Phenomenology for Interdisciplinary Studies
    Elite Women as Strangers: A Phenomenology for Interdisciplinary Studies Ulla M Holm and Mia Liinason Göetborg University April 2007 2 ELITE WOMEN AS STRANGERS — A PHENOMENOLOGY FOR INTERDISCIPLINARY STUDIES Ulla M Holm and Mia Liinason, Göteborg University The goal of phenomenology is to describe the universal structures of subjective orientation in the world, not to explain the general features of the objective world. (Thomas Luckmann 1978: 9) In this article, we will outline why we want to take part in the development of a phenomenology for interdisciplinary studies on gender and migration and what we will use for such a development. Then we provide a brief historical account of phenomenologists1 who have contributed to the phenomenological movement that started at the beginning of the 20th century. We will focus on critical phenomenology as an approach and methodology rather than on its different research methods and will draw especially on what Hannah Arendt and Dorothy E Smith may contribute to methodological considerations. Such an approach seems to have a renaissance today. Qualitative research methods, especially as they have developed historically within the social sciences, are often understood to be interpretative and post- phenomenological. The qualitative research methods that are explicitly called ‘phenomenological’ today resemble unstructured depth interviews, ethnography, participant observations, ethnomethodological and post-structural discourse analyses etc which are discussed more thoroughly in othercontributions to this project. Therefore the article moves from a phenomenological framework via methodological reflections to a couple of textually based examples, one from the humanities and the other from the social sciences. A phenomenology for interdisciplinary studies on gender and migration A phenomenology can be a paradigmatic framework in a Kuhnian (Kuhn 1962) sense, a certain approach, i.e.

  • Lewis R. Gordon Brown University
    Making Science Reasonable: Peter Caws on Science both Human and “Natural” Lewis R. Gordon Brown University Perhaps the best statement on an intellectual’s work is the positive influence it has had on one’s own. Although I was not a formal student of Caws, I made his acquaintance indirectly through my dissertation on Sartrean bad faith.[1] His very influential study of Sartre for the prestigious Routledge “Arguments of the Philosophers” series made its way into my work with significant impact.[2] I recall the delight on my late mentor, Maurice Natanson’s face when he perused my bibliography and saw that I found my way to Caw’s work on my own. Natanson’s respect for Caws was such that I am sure he would have participated in the live forum and this subsequent journal discussion. My indirect relationship with Caws changed in 1995, when I managed to secure his writing a contribution for the “Philosophy of Existence” section of The Edinburgh Encyclopedia of Philosophy.[3] We finally met in 1998, when he participated in a forum at the American Philosophical Association meeting in Washington, DC. There he was—erudite, gentle, honest. I recall a member of the audience attempting to drag him into a silly quagmire of political shame since the session was sponsored by the Radical Philosophy Association. “What took you so long to be on an RPA panel?” asked the critic. Caws, ever honest and succinct, replied that he was there because I asked him to comment on the other participant’s paper, and he is committed to maximizing the quality of his intellectual work, which he hopes will be of value to human kind.

  • Reasoning in Black: Africana Philosophy Under the Weight of Misguided Reason* Lewis R
    1 Reasoning in Black: Africana Philosophy Under the Weight of Misguided Reason* Lewis R. Gordon To be black and reasonable should not be a problem. Yet, as many black intellectuals know, their situation makes normative a neurotic confession by the famed comedian Groucho Marx: It demands their rejecting membership in any club that would accept them as members.1 This predicament was studied well by W.E.B. Du Bois. He described it as the problem of being a problem.2 The standard response to the black, which in his day was called “the Negro,” was to treat the black as a problem instead of as a human being who faces problems. By problems, Du Bois meant difficulties occasioned by the world in which one lives. Problems for Du Bois are pragmatic and social. The problematic problems usually are material: one faces solutions that would surmount objective limitations with objective possibilities. Social problems were those in which the limitations and possibilities are societal on the macro, suprastructural level and intersubjective in the sense of human intercommunication and relations building meaningful bases of making decisions. Ordinary people face problems in the form of negotiating their choices with the options available. Where options are limited, their choices are forced inward. Where options are expanded, their choices reach outward without the significance of futility. A problem of being a problem, then, is that one faces a social world that, in effect, takes no responsibility for the options available. Frantz Fanon, the philosopher and psychiatrist who participated in the Algerian revolutionary struggle of the mid through late 1950s, put it this way: Overcoming being a problem requires becoming actional.3 Yet action without reason is, as is well known, blind.
