Ethical burdens of Covid-19 testing
US public health response to COVID-19 has focused on increasing availability and access to viral testing, which raises three sets of potential problems: (1) lack of testing uptake, (2) diminished public health impact of testing, and (3) loss of access to necessary social goods and supports. Moreover, these problems are encountered differentially in affluent vs. disadvantaged communities. If not addressed, these problems could exacerbate health di…

The political value of letting hopes die
Much recent philosophical discussion has explored the political value of holding onto certain hopes for shared ends. This paper considers whether there is correlative political value of letting go of certain hopes or at least of refraining from publicly affirming particular hopes for our collective future. For instance, recently a coalition of scientists and governance scholars have called on governments, international agencies, and other actors …
Transformative Choices and the Specter of Regret
When people are making certain medical decisions—especially potentially transformative ones—the specter of regret may color their choices. In this essay, I ask whether predicting that we will regret a decision in the future serve any justificatory role in our present decision making. And if so, what role? While there are many pitfalls to such reasoning, I ultimately conclude that considering future retrospective emotions like regret in our decisi…
‘First Do No Harm’
The increasing use of opioid treatment agreements (OTAs) has prompted debate within the medical community about ethical challenges with respect to their implementation. The focus of debate is usually on the efficacy of OTAs at reducing opioid misuse, how OTAs may undermine trust between physicians and patients and the potential coercive nature of requiring patients to sign such agreements as a condition for receiving pain care. An important consi…
The Scoundrel and the Visionary
Transforming Others
We often find ourselves in situations where it is up to us to make decisions on behalf of others.How can we determine whether such decisions are morally justified, especially if those decisions may change who it is these others end up becoming?In this paper, I will evaluate one plausible kind of justification that may tempt us: we may want to justify our decision by appealing to the likelihood that the other person will be glad we made that speci…
East European Reporter
Finally those of us for whom developments in Eastern — or Central! — Europe are at least one of the keys to unlocking the question of a radical democratic, post-Marxist politics can now get between the same covers news from the three countries which — at however uneven a pace — are developing or (in Czechoslovakia especially) trying to preserve an autonomous civil society. What is more, the “news” is not just information and reprints of outrages …

Moral Development and Ego Identity
As the result of a “distorted communication process,” Telos neglected to print the following charts which should have accompanied Jürgen Habermas' article, “Moral Development and Ego Identity” (Telos 24, pp. 41-55). The article-originally delivered at ceremonies marking the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the Frankfurt Institute for Social Research—began by situating his problem vis-à-vis the approach of the older Critical Theory. The lat…
Introduction to Castoriadis
The following interview is in a sense self-explanatory. But it is also limited, by the format, by the breadth of the issues covered, and by its retrospective orientation. For whomever has followed the development of the group Socialisme ou Barbarie through the pages of its journal; and for whomever has had the occasion to discuss with Castoriadis (or Lefort, Lyotard, Mothé or others in the group), the Interview demands a supplementary commentary.…
Introduction to Lefort
The following essay stands at a double intersection in the work of Claude Lefort: its political thrust is determined by his activities in the group “Socialisme ou Barbarie,” while the theoretical lessons drawn from that experience return to a series of earlier theoretical studies and point toward the direction that his thought has taken since then. The volume from which this essay is taken, Elements d'une théorie de la bureaucratic (Droz: 1971), …
