Conscience et mimésis: Bernard Stiegler et la question du cinéma
La théorie de la conscience développée par Bernard Stiegler est fondée sur une idée originale : la conscience est cinéma, et les inventions des dispositifs technologiques de la photographie, de la phonographie et surtout du cinéma ont rendu visible cette structure. Cet article examine la théorie stieglérienne de la conscience en tant que pouvoir non conscient de rêver, qui n’est pas fondé sur l’imagination cachée dans les profondeurs de l’inconsc…

Blockbusters and the Arthouse Cinema of Consciousness: Bernard Stiegler and the Question of Cinema
Bernard Stiegler’s theory of consciousness claims: consciousness is cinema. The invention of the technological dispositifs of photography, phonograph, and cinema, have made this structure visible. He develops the thesis of the cinema of consciousness in Technics and Time, where it leads to a deconstruction of Husserlian consciousness and of the Kantian I. This theory also orients Stiegler’s large-scale criticism of contemporary cinematic capitali…

From Technological Humanity to Bio-technical Existence
Assessing Data Quality: An Approach and An Application
Political scientists routinely face the challenge of assessing the quality (validity and reliability) of measures in order to use them in substantive research. While stand-alone assessment tools exist, researchers rarely combine them comprehensively. Further, while a large literature informs dataproducers, dataconsumerslack guidance on how to assess existing measures for use in substantive research. We delineate a three-component practical approa…
Four Transcendental Illusions of the Digital World: A Derridean Approach
This article considers the remote meeting technologies that have become the unavoidable framework of (academic) work during the COVID -19 epidemic. I analyze them with the help of Jacques Derrida’s concepts, thus also illustrating the reach of the latter. The article presents four “transcendental illusions” as supporting the digital world and, according to Derrida, experience. The illusion of proximity: digitality relies on a haptocentric illusio…
Why Low Levels of Democracy Promote Corruption and High Levels Diminish It
Theory predicts democracy should reduce corruption. Yet, scholars have found that while corruption is low at high levels of democracy, it is high at modest levels, as well as low when democracy is absent. A weakness of studies that aim to explain this inverted curvilinear relationship is that they do not disaggregate the complex concepts of democracy and corruption. By contrast, this paper disaggregates both. We demonstrate that the curvilinear r…

La chute et la chance de la nature: Schelling, Hegel et après
L'article présente un regard synthétique sur les enjeux de la philosophie de la nature de l'idéalisme allemand. Il montre pourquoi la philosophie hégélienne de la nature doit être lue non pas seulement comme la chute de l'idée dans une extériorité sans esprit, mais aussi comme la chance de l'esprit qui veut penser le réel tel qu'il est. Il compare cela à l'opposition de la gravité et de la lumière dans la philosophie de la nature de Schelling, et…

Being with Technique–Technique as being-with: The technological communities of Gilbert Simondon
I present Gilbert Simondon’s thinking of technics, that I take to be so compelling today because it articulates technological reality in ecological terms as a technogeography and life as being-with-the-machines. I will (1) flesh out Simondon’s program for a being-with-the-machines, (2) show how it corresponds to the essence of the technical objects described in terms of milieu and relation (3) indicate how this is based on Simondon’s ontology of …
Politics of digital learning—Thinking education with Bernard Stiegler
Bernard Stiegler is known as a leading philosopher of technics. He has developed an original interpretation of technics as an externalized epiphylogenetic memory that (1) remembers in the place of the human being, who appears therefore as a forgetful being and (2) is collective and constitutes a technological community, that is different from any ethnical-political community. Stiegler has also examined the social and political consequences of con…

Measuring high level democratic principles using the V-Dem data
While the definition of extended conceptions of democracy has been widely discussed, the measurement of these constructs has not attracted similar attention. In this article we present new measures of polyarchy, liberal democracy, deliberative democracy, egalitarian democracy, and participatory democracy that cover most polities in the period 1900 to 2013. These indices are based on data from a large number of indicators collected through the Var…

When Guardians Matter Most: Exploring the Conditions Under Which Electoral Management Body Institutional Design Affects Election Integrity
Problems with election fraud and election integrity are of increasing interest in both established and transitional democracies. In many transitional democracies, independent electoral management bodies (EMBs) have been championed as a key institutional reform measure to successfully strengthen election integrity. However, empirical findings regarding the impact of EMB institutional design on election integrity are mixed. While regional studies h…

Identification of agrarian classes: A methodological essay with empirical material from South India
This article is primarily methodological. It contains a discussion of the concept of agrarian class, and an attempt to develop a method for class analysis, that is, for identifying the class status of individual households, and thereby to develop a tool for assessing the numerical strength of various classes. The article is part of a wider study of production relations in parts of Tiruchy District in Tamil Nadu, and the impact of these relations …

The Obligatory Gift of Organ Transplants: The Case of the Finnish Law on the Medical Use of Human Organs, Tissues, and Cells
Recent debates on biopolitics have focused on negative and positive interpretations of “life” that is the object of biopolitical apparatuses. Agamben examines the “bare life” that is produced by the sovereign ban, Negri and Hardt speak on the contrary of emancipatory biopolitical production, while Derrida and Esposito study (auto-)immunitary reactions that constitute living beings. The aim of this article is to examine a concrete case that permit…

Farmers’ Agitation, Civil Society and the State
New social movements are regarded by many as the answer to the severe economic and political predicament of contemporary developing countries. The message of these movements seems to be that the political system is ripe for a break and a new idea of democracy is on the agenda. It can be formulated as a slogan: 'Civil society against the state'. Much attention and hope is now attached to the women's, green's and local self-help movements, students…

The Remains of the Romantic Philosophy of Nature: Being as Life, or the Plurality of Living Beings
The Remains of the Romantic Philosophy of Nature:Being as Life, or the Plurality of Living Beings? Susanna Lindberg (bio) What remains of the Romantic philosophy of nature that was developed mainly by Schelling and Hegel? For a long time, the standard answer was: absolutely nothing. The general public had more or less assimilated the speculative Naturphilosophie to New Age reveries: it was proved to be scientifically false and in its very princip…
Designing Collective Action: Problems of Local Water Management in Tiruchi District
A wide range of factors shapes irrigation institutions and collective action with regard to irrigation. They include the distribution of land across irrigation command areas and across classes, land tenure systems, access to new technology such as bore wells, the availability and cost of electricity and other energy sources for lifting groundwater, and, above all, state policies related to irrigation. Participatory irrigation management is hamper…
Les hantises de Clara
Clara, ou Du lien de la nature au monde des esprits tient une place à part parmi les écrits de F. W. J. von Schelling. Roman inachevé sur la mort et le deuil, il contient aussi l’ébauche d’une théorie philosophico-spiritiste de l’au-delà. Habituellement, on le lit comme un document d’une phase douloureuse de la vie de Schelling, ayant quelque charme, voire valeur littéraire, mais guère d’intérêt philosophique. Dans cet article, je vais tenter une…
