Constructing radical community: An ecological model for shifting from an EdD to a We-dD in online doctoral programs
Being Some Body: Choice and Identity in a Liberal Pluralist World
The concentration camp at Auschwitz kept stunningly and chillingly meticulous records on its inmates. One particularly striking aspect of this was the wide range of badges which had to be worn to indicate one’s categorization: Jew, gypsy, homosexual, political offender and so on, and all the cross-categorizations they gave rise to. This paper is about badges of identity and the conditions which give rise to them. No one can say in advance what fe…
Qu’est-ce qu’un collectif: Du commun à la politique
Qu'est-ce qu'un collectif ? L'usage, volontaire, du substantif suggère que « collectif » renvoie non pas à une qualité, à un mode d'action ou à un type de processus, mais à une personne, un individu ou un sujet collectif. Donnant la parole à des auteurs de différents pays et de diverses traditions de pensée, les textes rassemblés font le point sur les débats, actuellement vifs en philosophie et en sciences sociales, concernant l'analyse des colle…
Altruism, self-interest and the indistinctness of persons
The problem of altruism is to determine intellectually compelling grounds for allowing others' interests and desires to weigh with us as well as our own. Two considerations impact on that problem. One concerns the clustering of particular interests and desires. The doctrine of the distinctness of persons gives prime importance to their origin in a particular individual. But clustering across individuals, rather than within individuals, may be mor…
Practical Reasoning in a Social World: How We Act Together
"In this book Keith Graham examines the philosophical assumptions behind the ideas of group membership and loyalty. Drawing out the significance of social context, he challenges individualist views by placing collectivities such as committees, classes or nations within the moral realm. He offers a new understanding of the multiplicity of sources which vie for the attention of human beings as they decide how to act, and challenges the conventional…

Digging up Marx
Many years ago, in the course of a talk about Poets Laureate through the ages, the broadcaster and jazz person Benny Green said: ‘Four years after Tennyson died, Alfred Austin succeeded him as Poet Laureate. A better idea would have been to dig up Tennyson’. In the same spirit I want to suggest that in the circumstances of the crisis of social criticism described in the introduction to this volume, a better idea is to dig up Marx.2 I believe ther…

Marx, Method, and the Division of Labour
Schumpeter's critique of Marx: A reappraisal
The paper provides an account of Marx's position of Schumpeter's three categories: capitalism, socialism and democracy. Marx's conception of capitalism is established as more wide‐ranging than sometimes thought, covering any form of society where commodities predominate, and implying a polarized class structure independent of considerations of manual or lowly labour. It is not therefore essentially a political conception, nor does its application…
Self-Ownership, Communism and Equality
G. A. Cohen, Keith Graham; Self-Ownership, Communism and Equality1, Aristotelian Society Supplementary Volume, Volume 64, Issue 1, 1 July 1990, Pages 25–62
Class ‐ a simple view
The aim is to defend the starting‐point of Marx's theory of class, which is located in a definition of the working class in the Communist Manifesto. It is a definition solely in terms of separation from productive resources and a need to sell one's labour power, and it is closely connected with Marx's thesis that the population in capitalism has a tendency to polarize. That thesis conflicts with the widely‐held belief in the growth of a large mid…
Whose Justice? Which Rationality?
Liberalism and Liberty: The Fragility of a Tradition
My discussion in this lecture is structured as follows. In section 1 I consider the nature of philosophical enquiry and its affinity to liberalism. In section 2 I lay out some of the basic components of liberal theory and explore their interrelations. In section 3 I discuss two challenges to liberalism: one concerning the conception of liberty which it involves and one concerning the way in which it introduces the idea of legitimate political aut…
Morality, Individuals and Collectives
My discussion in this paper is divided into three parts. In section I, I discuss some fairly familiar lines of approach to the question how moral considerations may be shown to have rational appeal. In section II, I suggest how our existence as constituents in collective entities might also influence our practical thinking. In section III, I entertain the idea that identification with collectives might displace moral thinking to some degree, and …
Regulative Political Theory: Language, Norms and Ideology
Some of the features of the ordinary language method in philosophy have survived in recent political theory. The method's drawback is its conceptual conservatism, which may go unnoticed when it is employed rather than discussed. Pennock's recent arguments about liberty are shown to rely on the method at crucial points, in such a way as to give unjustified support to the concept of negative liberty. More surprisingly, there is common ground betwee…
