Sense and Singularity: Jean-Luc Nancy and the Interruption of Philosophy
Mourning Alone Together
In the current context of pervasive loss and the absence of publicly commemorative rituals, this essay proposes a reading of Freud’s ‘Mourning and Melancholia’ that questions the presupposition that mourning must come to an end as the completed work of memories recalled only to be sent off. While melancholia may be presented as the invention of an imaginary loss, would not the real pathology of mourning be the summary or precipitous declaration o…
Can the Precariat Be Organized: The Gig Economy, Worksite Dispersion, and the Challenge of Mutual Aid
The development and success of the welfare state during the twentieth century coincides with the power of labor unions and their influence on the political process, both through the ballot box and by direct action in the form of strikes, boycotts, and protest marches. Already in the nineteenth century, however, and prior to the development of the modern welfare state, nascent labor unions modeled the concept of welfare as a function of mutual aid…

My response questions the validity of this alternative by reconsidering Tr…

L'Asie fantome: Or, Malraux's Inhuman Condition
André Malraux's infamous sojourn in colonial Indochina (November 1923-January 1926) paradoxically appears as both completely episodic and completely transformative, as merely one of many noteworthy moments in a hyperbolically eventful life and as that life's most determinative event. 1 The cubist poet and art collector emerges from his Asian experience as a politicized novelist. The cynical aim of plundering Khmer temples to restore his failed fi…
