Trigger warnings for the political theory canon: A moderate defense
Racialised Stereotypes of Scrap Iron Collection as Failures of Ecological Citizenship
Despite scrap metal collection being a valuable ecological practice, one which exposes collectors to health hazards and poor workingconditions, it is frequently devalued and rarely portrayed as a positive environmental contribution. Our article examines views regarding scrap metal collection expressed in response to Charlie Hebdo’s caricature of the (non-Romani) Romanian tennis player Simona Halep as a scrap iron collector. We argue that the reac…
Post-Truth is Misplaced Distrust in Testimony, Not Indifference to Facts: Implications for Deliberative Remedies
How should we deliberate with citizens who entertain post-truth beliefs in democratic societies? This is a central question for those interested in wielding the epistemic potential of democratic deliberation against post-truth.

Taking seriously the connection between epistemic diagnosis and deliberative remedy, this paper looks at the …
