Law, Ethics and Emerging Military Technologies
The Ordering of Time
Explores how we can think with – as opposed to thinking about – the history of philosophy Outlines a new historico-philosophical methodology termed reflective historical engagement Employs this methodology in forging dramatic and moving reinterpretations of the recent history of philosophy Offers original analyses of the works of Hegel, Whitehead, Russell, Moore, Wittgenstein, Heidegger and other foundational figures, alongside the many forgotten…
Military Ethics
NSA Management Directive #424
Whatever else one might say concerning the legality, morality, and prudence of his actions, Edward Snowden, the former U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) contractor, is right about the notion of publicity and informed consent, which together constitute the hallmark of democratic public policy.

Citing the examples of moral dilemmas occasioned by conflicts between duties of …
Is hermeneutics ‘philosophy’? Interpretation and overinterpretation of the past
Contrairement a ce qu'affirmait Gadamer, l'A. montre qu'a de nombreux egards la philosophie n'est pas l'hermeneutique. Il etudie tout d'abord trois tableaux de Monet sur le pont Waterloo a Londres, qui lui permettent de degager trois types d'hermeneutique: esthetique, politique et philosophique. Des lors, il analyse ces trois types d'interpretation en soulignant que l'etre n'est pas le signifie
