I begin by introducing three approaches to subjectivity, locating these in relation both to Foucault’s texts and to the recent litera- ture. I suggest that Foucault himself operates within what I call the ‘entanglement approach’, and, as such, he faces a potentially serious challenge, a challenge force- fully articulated by Han. Using Kant’streatmentofreflection as a point of compar- ison, I argue that Foucault possesses the resources to meet this challenge. The key, I contend, is to distinguish two related theses about reflection and freedom: Foucault’s position is distinctive precisely because he accepts one of these theses whilst rejecting the other.

  • Universe and Inner Self in Early Indian and Early Greek Thought
    UNIVERSE AND INNER SELF IN EARLY INDIAN INDIAN AND INNER SELF IN EARLY UNIVERSE ‘The philosophical traditions of Greece and India are divergent but also GREEK THOUGHT AND EARLY show striking convergences. This book is an important and valuable contribution to the comparative study of the two ancient cultures. The various chapters are learned and sophisticated and considerably enrich our understanding of Greek and Indian philosophy.’ Phiroze Vasunia, University College London How can we explain the remarkable similarities between early Indian and early Greek philosophy? UNIVERSE AND Around the middle of the first millennium BCE there occurred a revolution in thought, with novel ideas such as that understanding the inner self is both vital for human well-being and central to understanding INNER SELF the universe. This intellectual transformation is sometimes called the beginning of philosophy. The revolution occurred in both India and Greece, but not in the vast Persian Empire that divided them. How was IN EARLY INDIAN this possible? This is a puzzle that has never been solved. This volume brings together Hellenists and Indologists representing AND EARLY GREEK a variety of perspectives on the similarities and differences between the two cultures, and on how to explain them. It offers a collaborative Richard Seaford Richard THOUGHT contribution to the burgeoning interest in the Axial Age, and is of interest to those intrigued by the big questions inspired by the ancient world. by Edited Richard Seaford is Emeritus Professor of Ancient Greek at the University of Exeter.

  • Thesis Submitted to the Department of Law of the London School of Economics and Political Science for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, London, September 2017
    The London School of Economics and Political Science Law Embodied: re-imagining a material legal normativity Sally Shinan Zhu A thesis submitted to the Department of Law of the London School of Economics and Political Science for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, London, September 2017 !1 Declaration I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it). The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without my prior written consent. I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis consists of 98,052 words. !2 Abstract In this thesis I critique the modern tendency to construct the legal subject upon a sharp distinction between Reason and body and to ground the normative force of law on an ideal conception of Reason. The legal subject is thereby presented as a disembodied cogitans to the neglect of his corporeality. This disregards both the necessarily material aspect of the legal subject and the necessarily embodied aspect of legal action, and results in an inadequate account of how legal normativity is manifested in material reality.

  • 1 Heidegger and the Occlusion of the Political by SACHA GOLOB
    Heidegger and The Occlusion of the Political By SACHA GOLOB (King’s College London) Forthcoming in Geschichte, Politik, Ideologie: Heideggers ,Schwarze Hefte‘ im Kontext, Espinet, Figal, Keiling and Mirkovic (eds.), Mohr Siebeck. Penultimate Draft – Please Cite the Published Version Abstract This paper aims to advance our understanding of Heidegger’s politics as it is laid bare within the ‘Schwarze Hefte’. Yet my interest is not in Heidegger’s first order political views, but rather in his conception of the political sphere per se. Beginning from a close analysis of the earliest volume of the notebooks, Gesamtausgabe Bd.94, I suggest that the dominant characterisation of the political space within Heidegger’s text is as a threat - to philosophy and to ontology. Underlying that characterisation, however, it is simultaneously possible to identify another pattern, one on which the political is itself gradually suppressed or occluded by the ontological. This tacit occlusion has, I suggest, a number of deeply problematic consequences. I close by indicating how the argument might be extended to the question of a Heideggerian ethics. 1 My aim in this paper is to advance our understanding of Heidegger’s politics as it is laid bare within the so-called ‘Schwarze Hefte’. But my interest is not in his first order political views nor in his prejudices, which seem to me as predictable as they are repulsive. Rather, my interest is in his conception of the political sphere per se, and in his understanding of the relationship between philosophy and politics as two fields of discourse or action. I want to approach the topic with the help of a figure that is, I hope, useful, although provocative.

Brief introduction to research profile and current research focus My work focuses broadly on the social and cultural implications of digital infrastructure, and I’m particularly interested in the power and politics of algorithms in everyday life. Firmly grounded in media studies, my research focuses on the social, cultural and political ramifications of software and computation. Broadly speaking, I am interested in different forms of computational culture, and ways in which software mediates and intervenes in communicative and social contexts. More specifically, I am interested in the impacts of algorithms, big data and analytics on the media and cultural industries, including journalism and social media platforms. My work combines social scientific and humanities methods with a strong focus on qualitative investigations and critical theoretical analysis. My current research sees algorithms as a social concern, and investigates how they come to matter as part of people’s online experiences, public discourse and work life.

  • Methodological Anxiety Heidegger on Moods and Emotions
    OUP CORRECTED PROOF – FINAL, 05/04/2017, SPi View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by PhilPapers 12 Methodological Anxiety Heidegger on Moods and Emotions Sacha Golob In the context of a history of the emotions, Martin Heidegger presents an important and challenging case. Emotions, broadly construed, play a central role in his think- ing; particularly boredom, fear, and anxiety.1 This role is, however, highly distinctive: Heidegger is critical of much of the standard ontology of emotions and he is uninterested in many of the philosophical debates within which emotions usually figure. My purpose in this article is to sketch these aspects of Heidegger’s work, highlighting both the innovative nature of his views and the distinctive problems he faces as a consequence. Before getting underway, two preliminary remarks. The first concerns the scope of this chapter. Heidegger was a prolific writer: the Gesamtausgabe edition runs to over one hundred volumes. Furthermore, during the course of his lifetime, his work undergoes a series of complex stylistic and philosophical shifts—for example, during the early 1930s, and then again in the aftermath of the war. There is no scholarly consensus on the exact nature of these developments or on the degree of continuity or change that they imply. Given these facts, it would be impossible to address Heidegger’s views on ‘emotions’ or indeed any other topic in a single chapter without radically restricting the chronological range of the discussion. I will therefore focus on Heidegger’s best-known work, Sein und Zeit (1927), and on the account developed there and then refined in subsequent texts such as Ga29/30, the 1929 lecture series Die Grundbegriffe der Metaphysik.
