Response to Robert Bernasconi's “Slavery's absence from histories of moral and political philosophy”
I focus in this response on what I take to be Bernasconi's proposal to dissolve and reframe moral and political philosophies around the problematic of slavery. Insofar as, in the wake of Afro‐diasporic and Black radical thought, it offers us one version of an argument that has now touched virtually all aspects of modern European philosophy, how are we to understand the specific orientations of Bernasconi's approach? Reading Bernasconi's article, …
Warding Off the Ghosts of Race in the Historiography of Philosophy
This article contends that an adequate investigation of the role and effects of race in the history of philosophy requires an elucidation of the ways in which the history of philosophy functions as a “territorial” structure. This argument is developed through an extensive cross-examination of Peter Park's Africa, Asia and the History of Philosophy: Racism in the Formation of the Philosophical Canon 1780–1830 (2013) and Catherine König-Pralong's L…
Michel Serres's Leibnizian Structuralism
In this article I examine Michel Serres’s seminal study of Leibniz: Le Système de Leibniz et ses modèles mathématiques (1968), a book which, in spite of its significance, has never been discussed at length. I analyse Serres’s structural reconstruction of Leibniz’s philosophy by focusing on the way in which the notion of structure operates in his reading, simultaneously at the level of method and at a metaphysical level (through a general theory o…
Modern European Philosophy
This chapter reviews three of the most consequential works in modern European philosophy published in 2017: Étienne Balibar’s Citizen Subject, Nick Nesbitt’s edited volume The Concept in Crisis, and William Clare Roberts’s Marx’s Inferno. These works reflect the fact that 2017 witnessed an upsurge of philosophical publications on Marx and Marxism. On one level, this is because 2017 was simultaneously the 150-year anniversary of the publication of…
Introduction to Serres on Transdisciplinarity
Excerpted from an article on Leibniz first published in 1974 in Hermès III, la Traduction, Michel Serres's 'Transdisciplinarity as Relative Exteriority' offers a synoptic view of Serres's vision of the relationship between philosophy and the sciences. Serres charts four historical strategies by which philosophy has secured its theoretical control over the sciences, four versions of philosophical exteriority towards the scientific field. He contra…
Familles et destins féminins
La littérature personnelle permet de retracer certains aspects de la dynamique familiale au début du siècle, à travers la description du cycle de vie des femmes et l'interprétation qu'elles donnent aux situations qui les concernent. Les propos sur l'apprentissage, le départ de la maison, les fréquentations, le mariage, la maternité... illustrent le fonctionnement et les variantes de l'ancienne culture de solidarité, ainsi que l'imbrication des it…
Les femmes au tournant du siècle, 1880-1940
