Butler 2 11 15 FINAL UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY BERKELEY • DAVIS • IRVINE • LOS ANGELES • MERCED • RIVERSIDE • SAN DIEGO • SAN FRANCISCO SANTA BARBARA • SANTA CRUZ THE PROGRAM IN CRITICAL THEORY UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY 4327 DWINELLE HALL #2510 BERKELEY, CALIFORNIA 94720-2510 http://criticaltheory.berkeley.edu/ February 10, 2015 To: The Mellon Foundation From: Judith Butler, UC Berkeley The Program in Critical Theory at the University of California at Berkeley (UCB) requests an officer’s grant of $150,000 from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation for use in developing, over a period of 18 months (March 2015 – September 2016), plans for an International Consortium of Critical Theory Programs (ICCTP). Its immediate purpose would be to understand and reinforce the centrality of critical theory, and the tradition of critique, as essential to the contemporary global university. In its planning phase, the program would have three components: (a) an international board and a multilingual website would establish links among programs and institutes throughout the world that currently have no established means of interaction or collaboration; (b) agenda-setting planning meetings that would take place in Buenos Aires and Berkeley and would explore the challenges of globalization to both critical theory and the task of articulating the values of the university and develop plans for the consortium’s future activities; and (c) a program development initiative would delineate and disseminate models for critical theory programs (undergraduate and graduate), centers, and institutes that could be adapted to different institutional needs both in the U.S. and globally. By helping us gather the disparate and disconnected initiatives in this field, the proposed grant would lay the groundwork necessary for us to ask in a deliberate and collaborative fashions, what UC Berkeley 2 are the global forms that critical theory now takes, and what are the global challenges to the university as a site for critical thinking. It would begin to allow us to open up new institutional links and to pursue new forms of interdisciplinary knowledge, guided by a broad query: what is critical theory under the current historical and global conditions in which the value of critical thought is questioned, and what course should it chart in order to meet these challenges? (1) Task of the International Consortium of Critical Theory Programs The task of an international consortium of this kind would be not only to preserve and promote the tradition of critical theory in a broad sense, but also to investigate innovations and revisions of that tradition in light of the global range of critical theories as well as the contemporary global challenges to the university and, by implication, to critical thought itself. The core rationale for such a consortium is to document and connect programs and centers dedicated to the field of critical theory that have no previous institutional forum for such an exchange. The European origins of critical theory have been crucial to its articulation and significant influence, but there are now diverse appropriations and revisions of that tradition so that it speaks now to contemporary historical and economic conditions that traverse Europe and other parts of the globe. A proposal with a narrower focus might be interested only in establishing the importance of the field within the academy, its history and interdisciplinary reach. That would constitute an effort to protect a niche at the expense of showing the broader implications of what such a program implies both for the university and thinking about global challenges to its current structure and aim. Our firm sense is rather that critical thinking is part of what a university ought to cultivate, and that the task of such a consortium would be precisely to make clear what this task involves, what historical and theoretical resources we need, and what difference it makes UC Berkeley 3 during these financial times and within this global context in which knowledge is often treated as having instrumental value only. Indeed, our wager is that knowledge can and should be consequential without necessarily abiding by those purely instrumental and cost-benefit measures of value that have tended to devalue the contributions of the arts, humanities, and humanistic social sciences. This does not mean that we oppose measures of every kind, or that we underestimate the importance of measures and instruments throughout the arts and humanities (music, poetry, art, and architecture, even the library sciences on which all disciplines rely, are surely bound up with valued instruments of measurement of all kinds). With the resources supported by this grant, we would be able to provide an institutional structure that has been clearly lacking for this field: we seek to gather a number of programs that are scattered inside and outside the United States that have similar aims and confront structural challenges within the university at this time, to provide for resource sharing through a multi- lingual website, program development, collaborative research and, eventually, faculty and student exchange. We also intend to take on the challenge of figuring out what critical theory has become, and what it should be, given the disparate historical conditions of its inception in Europe in the 1930s and 40s and the contemporary global forms it now takes as well as the challenges it now confronts, as happens when utility, profitability, and impact become reigning measures of value. Our belief is that by connecting programs through the website, and bringing scholars together with a common formation in critical theory through both conferences and program development initiatives, we will be able to develop a sense of the global form and reach of critical theory for our times as well as the potential of critical theory to address the question of which measures of value rightly illuminate the value of the university in a global context. We hope to show the UC Berkeley 4 public promise of critical theory, and to make the broader case for its institutional support within higher education. (2) Background on Critical Theory Although associated with the Frankfurt School, critical theory is a tradition that draws upon Kant and his critics, and which has developed in new ways through French 20th century intellectual traditions, and now includes a host of academic inquiries that oppose the uncritical assumption of dogmatic values. The emergence of critical race theory and critical legal studies, for instance, demonstrate the liveliness and contemporary relevance of the field. Since “critical” relates both to crisis and to thinking, it gives us a chance to think about the crisis of higher education itself not only as a fiscal crisis, but a crisis of values. The opportunity to collect and connect information about critical theory programs on the proposed website would be the first step in developing a global picture of critical theory for our times. Such an account then allows us to more clearly and comprehensively formulate its contemporary value over and against neo- liberal trends that tend to discount the value of critical theory, but also the value of critical thought as a core component of the global university. Since the inception of critical theory in the 1930s, 40s, and 50s, its proponents have focused on the practice of critique, itself formulated most emphatically in 19th century German thought. The focus on critique has brought together a number of disciplines to reflect on the historical conditions of thought itself, offering ways of thinking about both the formal and social dimensions of scholarly and artistic works, and how schemes of value are generated and ratified, sometimes in unmindful and consequential ways. As new forms of instrumental rationality (what some call “neoliberalism”) enter into basic questions of what ought to be taught, who is qualified to teach it, and what the ultimate tasks of the university should be, it is more urgent UC Berkeley 5 than ever to encourage those forms of critical thought that call into question received measures of value that threaten to undermine the function of critical judgment within the academy. Indeed, rethinking the measures of value within the university would be the paramount task of such a consortium. And though “critique” is very often associated with the negative activity of debunking, in our view it is intimately bound up with the clarification and affirmation of values within the terms of our complex historical time. (3) What This International Consortium can Offer Now? The stated aims of this consortium and its proposed meetings are to provide an institutional structure that has been clearly lacking: we seek to gather a number of programs that are scattered inside and outside the United States that have similar aims and confront structural challenges within the university, to provide for resource sharing, program development, collaborative research, and eventual faculty and student exchange. Perhaps most importantly, our aim is to take on the challenge of figuring out what critical theory has become, and what it should be, particularly given the global challenges currently confronting critical thought, especially under conditions in which utility, profitability, and instrumental use have become major criteria for institutional support. Our wager is that bringing scholars together who have a common formation in critical theory, but who have elaborated its new forms in response

  • Lessons from the Young Marx ✉ Gianfranco Casuso 1
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1057/s41599-021-00813-x OPEN The epistemic foundations of injustice: lessons from the Young Marx ✉ Gianfranco Casuso 1 This article intends to show to what extent the early Marxian categories of alienation, ideology and proletariat can serve to better understand current forms of epistemic injustice, as well as, conversely, how the latter can illuminate some unclear aspects of such concepts. fi ’ 1234567890():,; In the rst part, it will be explained the extent to which Marx s concept of alienation accounts for the experience of an individual in a world to whose norms she is subject, but which she cannot recognise as her own. It will be shown that Marx finds the answer in a form of emancipatory praxis linked to a transformative appropriation of social reality. In order to deepen the understanding of this idea of emancipation, the second part will analyse the Marxian concept of the proletariat. It will be argued that taking up some considerations about the Hegelian figure of the rabble, Marx distinguishes a “liberal” from a “human” form of emancipation. In the third part, a contemporary example will be used to show the usefulness of the young Marx’s analyses concerning this dimension of emancipation struggles. In the fourth part, these ideas will be developed further through the concept of epistemic injustice, which has gained great importance in the recent studies that Critical Theory carries out of the different socio-epistemic blocks of an ideological nature that prevent articulating, commu- nicating and overcoming negative experiences that hinder individual self-realisation.

  • Comments on Colin Koopman's Genealogy As Critique Amy Allen
    Amy Allen 2014 ISSN: 1832‐5203 Foucault Studies, No. 18, pp. 238‐244, October 2014 REVIEW ESSAY The Normative and the Transcendental: Comments on Colin Koopman’s Genealogy as Critique Amy Allen, Dartmouth College Colin Koopman’s Genealogy as Critique: Foucault and the Problems of Modernity1 is an ambitious and exciting book that makes significant contributions to the now vast secondary literature on Foucault, and to the ongoing Foucault‐Habermas “debate.” Despite Foucault’s enormous in‐ fluence across multiple disciplines, his philosophical method, according to Koopman, has all too often been misunderstood not only by his harshest critics but also by his most ardent sup‐ porters. Hence, Koopman proposes a wholesale revision of our understanding of Foucault’s work, a revision that turns on two fundamental issues: first, rethinking Foucault’s relationship to Kant’s notion of critique; and, second, re‐interpreting Foucault’s oeuvre through the lens of the master concept of problematization. Re‐reading Foucault’s work in light of these two is‐ sues allows us to see not only how his diverse writings hang together as a consistent whole but also how his work provides a valuable and effective model of historico‐philosophical cri‐ tique that has much more in common with the traditions of American pragmatism and Ger‐ man critical theory than it does with some of the French and Italian philosophers—Derrida and Agamben, particularly—with whom Foucault is more often associated. To my mind, the most impressive and significant achievements of this book are two‐ fold: first, the interpretive re‐reading of Foucault’s oeuvre through the lens of problematiza‐ tion and, second, the related constructive articulation of a Foucaultian model of critique as problematization.

  • Psychoanalysis and the Methodology of Critique Amy Allen Department of Philosophy Penn State University Forthcoming in Constellations, June 2016
    Psychoanalysis and the Methodology of Critique Amy Allen Department of Philosophy Penn State University Forthcoming in Constellations, June 2016 In his introduction to Eros and Civilization, Herbert Marcuse distinguishes his philosophy of psychoanalysis from psychoanalytic therapy by explaining that the former aims “not at curing individual sickness, but at diagnosing the general disorder.”1 With this claim, Marcuse expresses a thought that has run through first, second, and third generation critical theory, in different ways, namely, that the methodology of critical theory can be understood as somehow analogous to psychoanalytic technique. This analogy holds that the critical theorist stands in relation to the pathological social order as the analyst stands in relation to the analysand, and that the aim of critical theory is to effect the diagnosis and, ultimately, the cure of social disorders or pathologies. This idea was famously developed in careful detail in Jürgen Habermas’s early work, Knowledge and Human Interests.2 There, Habermas defined psychoanalysis as a science of “methodical self-reflection” (KHI, 214), that is, as a form of depth hermeneutics that aims to analyze those aspects of the self that have been alienated from the self and yet remain a part of it. In other words, it aims to analyze what Freud once referred to as the “internal foreign territory” of the unconscious.3 In KHI, Habermas understood the individual psyche in communicative terms; hence, for him, unconscious wishes are those that have been “exclude[d]from public communication,” or “delinguisticized” (KHI, 224), but that continue to disrupt the subject’s communication with him or herself in the form of dreams, slips of the tongue, and other interruptions (KHI, 227).

  • Domination and Global Political Justice
    Domination and Global Political Justice Domination consists in subjection to the will of others and manifests itself both as a personal relation and a structural phenomenon serving as the context for relations of power. Domination has again become a central political concern through the revival of the republican tradition of politi­ cal thought (not to be confused with the US political party). However, normative debates about domination have mostly remained limited to the context of domestic politics. Also, the republican debate has not fully taken into account alternative ways of conceptualizing domination. Critical theorists, liberals, feminists, critical race theorists, and postcolonial writers have discussed domination in different ways, focusing on such problems as imperialism, racism, and the subjection of indigenous peoples. This volume extends debates about domination to the global level and considers how other streams in political theory and nearby disciplines enrich, expand upon, and critique the republican tradition's contributions to the debate. This vol­ ume brings together, for the first time, mostly original pieces on domination and global political justice by some of this generation's most prominent scholars, including Philip Pettit, James Bohman, Rainer Forst, Amy Allen, John McCormick, Thomas McCarthy, Charles Mills, Duncan lvison, John Maynor, Terry Macdonald, Stefan Gosepath, and Hauke Brunkhorst. Barbara Buckinx is Associate Research Scholar in the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs at Princeton University, US. Her work has appeared in Critical Review of International Social and Political Philosophy, Ethics and International Affairs, and Global Justice: Theory Practice Rhetoric. Jonathan Trejo-Mathys is- Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Boston Col­ lege, US.

  • Amy ALLEN, the End of Progress: Decolonizing the Normative Foundations of Critical Theory
    Amy ALLEN, The end of progress: decolonizing the normative foundations of critical theory. New York: Columbia University Press, 2015, 304 págs. O que diz as entrelinhas da teoria crítica vinculada à Escola de Frankfurt? Mais especificamente, quem é o “nós” a que as teorias de frankfurtianos como Jürgen Habermas, Axel Honneth ou Rainer Forst se referem? Ou, invertida a questão, o que essas teorias pensam sobre o “outro do nós”, aqueles que não cabem nas refe- ridas críticas, sejam elas internas ou externas? O livro em questão, escrito pela filó- sofa norte-americana Amy Allen, trata, de maneira densa e complexa, sobre o que hoje é interpretado como uma guinada conservadora ou restauradora na teoria crí- tica vinculada à Escola de Frankfurt. Aqueles que recorrem às teorias de Haber- mas, Honneth ou Forst para pensar sobre crítica econômica, questões de gênero, colonizações e imperialismos contemporâneos pode até não se decepcionar com- pletamente, mas fatalmente terá que recorrer a outros autores para tornar a pró- pria análise mais produtiva. Até a publicação de The end of progress pela Columbia University Press, nenhum autor tinha conseguido analisar e criticar tão bem o que soa para muitos comentadores dos trabalhos de Habermas, Honneth ou Forst como problemático: a pouca capacidade crítica de suas críticas sociais. O caminho encontrado por Allen para analisar esta despotencialização da críti- ca na teoria crítica de matiz frankfurtiana é plausível e bastante bem-fundamen- tado. Allen defende, em seu livro, que o principal problema dessas teorias é que o modo pelo qual as suas normas são ancoradas é refém de perspectivas eurocên- tricas.

Although this is an undeniable aspect of gender subordination, it does not tackle the complexity of its symbolic and material causes. My main thesis is that Allen does not offer the best model for feminist Critical Theory in light of the complexities of capitalist societies, much less to the feminist struggles in the Global South, deeply marked by poverty, social inequality, racism and all sorts of violence against women. Key-words: Amy Allen, Gender Subordination, Critical Theory, Habermas, Foucault Resumo: Neste artigo, argumento que a abordagem de Amy Allen a respeito da questão de gênero em The Politics of Our Selves é precária e parcial na medida em que é focada em uma análise da sujeição que visa explicar “como indivíduos subordinados se tornam psiquicamente atados à sua própria subordinação”.

  • John Dewey's Theory of Growth and Amy Allen's Feminist Theory of Power Applied to the Work of Domestic Violence Shelters
    JOHN DEWEY'S THEORY OF GROWTH AND AMY ALLEN'S FEMINIST THEORY OF POWER APPLIED TO THE WORK OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE SHELTERS Robyn A. Peabody A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2010 Committee: Michael Bradie, Advisor Lillian E. Ashcraft-Eason Graduate Faculty Representative Donald Callen James Campbell Kathleen Dixon ii ABSTRACT Michael Bradie, Advisor Over the last twenty-five years, there has been an increased interest in bringing together pragmatism and feminism. The dissertation advances this movement. It specifically examines the theory of growth offered by John Dewey and the feminist theory of power outlined by Amy Allen. The dissertation then examines the two theories in relation to the theory and practice of domestic violence emergency shelters. Dewey's theory of growth, which may apply to individual growth, and the work done with individual women in shelters provides a nice point of convergence from which to examine pragmatism and feminism. Before bringing representatives of pragmatism and feminism together, the dissertation addresses a criticism of Dewey's work that presents a potential obstacle to a productive merger. The dissertation alleviates the criticism that Dewey's theory of growth is cryptic and allusive by presenting the theory in light of his central pragmatic commitments. This presentation contextualizes his statements about growth and frames them within a comprehensive theory. In addition, the criticism that Dewey does not significantly address issues of power within his work is potentially problematic for application to the work of domestic violence shelters.
