Heidegger’s Technology Essay and the Uncanniness of Τέχνη
In recent decades, Heidegger has become an increasingly marginal voice in technology studies, discredited by his supposed technological determinism, nostalgia and monolithic abstractness. While this assessment is not without textual basis, it can be shown that Heidegger’s position bucks against it in many respects. By situating the exoteric discourse of the 1954 essay “The Question Concerning Technology” in Heidegger’s decades-long interrogation …

Training clinical teams in shared decision making and person centred care
This workshop will explore the core competencies that enable clinicians and other front line to have the skills and capabilities that enhance patient activation and health literacy and support key approaches such as shared/joint decision making. These capabilities are set out in the personalised care curriculum, a structured educational framework to assist health and care professionals in the delivery of personalised care (or also known as person…
Tennessee Williams' escapology and the heterotopia of 'The Mysteries of the Joy Rio
Tennessee Williams’ short story ‘The Mysteries of the Joy Rio’ (1954) concerns the eponymous cinema whose darkened upper balconies have long been used for chance sexual encounters. It is a text in which sex, death and escape converge. Employing Foucault’s concept of heterotopia, this article examines Williams’ derelict movie palace as a contestational social space and argues for a political project in Williams’ literary escapism. By presenting he…
A fallible narrator and an inscrutable object
This article argues that one of the means by which Dostoevsky achieves polyphony in the limited point-of-view narration of The Eternal Husband (1870) is through the tension between the character Velchaninov’s overt aversion and his subterranean attraction to Trusotsky, the cuckold of the title. While Trusotsky is more forthright in expressing his love for Velchaninov and has thus previously raised the question of homosexuality for commentators on…
The Troubling Relationship between Pleasure and Universality in Kant’s Impure Aesthetic Judgements
Kant calls judgements of adherent beauty impure aesthetic judgements because they presuppose the empirical concept of the object and are thus not determined exclusively by a feeling of pleasure. Glossed over in Kant’s account is what kind of universality these judgements have. This article argues that the subjective universality of pure aesthetic judgements and the objective universality of cognitive judgements do not merge in impure aesthetic ju…
Introduction
This Introduction highlights the dynamic nature of expert witnessing by highlighting some of the major areas of change and challenge: Our understanding of the immigrant and the asylum seeker reflected in changing legal categorizations, changing conditions in sending and receiving countries, and the changing and expanding field of anthropology that provides new critiques, materials, and perspectives for anthropologists as expert witnesses. Expert …
Finitude and the Precritical Imagination
Heidegger’s Kant and the Problem of Metaphysics (1929) turns on a reading of the productive imagination in the first edition of the Critique of Pure Reason (1781). In siding with the imagination, Heidegger declares his dissent from the neo‐Kantianism of his contemporaries. Yet, when Heidegger subsequently elaborates his philosophy of art in the 1930s, he is dismissive of the imagination altogether. His earlier partisanship was qualified. In Kant …
Metaphor and the Unprecedented
Beauty is a Fact under Siege
Some of Ruskin’s aesthetic positions become more comprehensible, if not defensible, when viewed in terms of a response to Victorian Britain’s environmental degradation. By his insistence on truth in controversies concerning the beautiful, Ruskin sets himself at variance with the aesthetic tradition that treats the beautiful as a topic of open-ended debate in which different opinions are weighed up and the authority of experts is never final. What…

Factors influencing pregnancy intentions and contraceptive use
Estimation of unmet need for contraception is pursued as a means of defining the climate of demand for services and the rationale for family planning programmes. The stagnation of levels of unmet need, as assessed by Demographic and Health Surveys, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa, has called into question the practical utility of this measure and its relevance to policies and programmes in settings where evidence-based guidance is needed the m…
The Cuckoo’s Egg in Honneth’s Hegel-Inspired Theory of Recognition
Axel Honneth reads the young Hegel as engaged in a debate with Hobbes over the social nature of the autonomous self. In the passages that are crucial for the development of Honneth’s own theory of recognition the Jena manuscripts nevertheless do not mention Hobbes by name. Attributing to Hegel an advance on Hobbes’s influential early modern account of individual autonomy, Honneth does not duly consider the polemical context in which Hobbes wrote.…
For the unruly subject the covenant, for the Christian sovereign the grace of God
This article proposes that Hobbes runs two different arguments for sovereignty in Leviathan. The one is polemical and takes up the notion of a covenant from early-modern resistance theory in order to redeploy it in the cause of absolutism. The other is biblical and constructs an image of the sovereign whose authority is a Mosaic legacy. The one argument is addressed to the unruly subject and teaches obedience, whereas the other is addressed to th…

Anti-Oedipus:The Ethics of Performance and Misrecognition in Matsumoto Toshio’s Funeral Parade of Roses James Phillips (bio) A story goes that the king of Scythia had a highly-bred mare, and that all her foals were splendid; that wishing to mate the best of the young males with the mother, he had him brought to the stall for the purpose; that the young horse declined; that, after the mother’s head had been concealed in a wrapper he, in ignorance,…

Arendt and Deleuze on Totalitarianism and the Revolutionary Event
Gilles Deleuze and Hannah Arendt are two thinkers who have theorised the exceptionalism of the revolutionary moment. For Deleuze, it is the moment of the people to come. For Arendt, it is the moment of the freedom of political action. In the decades since the fall of the Berlin Wall there has been extensive debate on how to remember the German Democratic Republic (DDR) and how to understand the events leading up to its demise. Arendt's analyses o…

Throughout The Beast and the Sovereign, the posthumously published lecture notes for seminars that he held between 2001 and 2003, Derrida piles up literary citations, historical references and past philosophi…
Agamben's limbos
Giorgio Agamben's reading of the Swiss German writer Robert Walser constitutes an underappreciated corrective to his bleak assessment of the biopolitical catastrophe to which he believes modern sovereignty is headed. Walser, whose characters Agamben himself compares to cartoons for their thoughtlessness and impassibility, provides Agamben with the image of utopia that informs his critique of existing conditions and saves him from both resignation…

The case for a Convergence of the Beautiful and the Sublime
The Fates of Flesh
This article is an attempt to rethink the terms on which we understand cinematic realism. Cinema's very success in recording reality problematises the notion of reality by which “realism” has otherwise been oriented. This is because the world of the age of cinema is a plurality of worlds, with the times and places captured on film competing for credibility. It is not a question, epistemologically, of discovering the real world so much as, ethical…
Restoring Place to Aesthetic Experience
Atypical among Heidegger's numerous discussions of poets is the condemnation of Rilke in the 1942-43 lecture course Parmenides. At stake is the definition of "the open" (das Offene): Rilke reserves the open for animals as freedom from conceptual determinacy, whereas Heidegger reserves it for human beings as the place of Being in which things first appear as what they are. The open, for Heidegger, names the existential conception of place (as dist…

Transforming archaeology through practice
Community archaeology' is a relatively new sub-field of research in archaeology that aims to involve local people in the investigation and interpretation of the past. Based on the creation of a community archaeology research project in Quseir, Egypt, a general methodology for facilitating effective community involvement in the study of the archaeological resource is proposed. This strategy involves seven components, including communication and co…
Inconsistent Reporting of Female Genital Cutting Status in Northern Ghana
Although many cross‐sectional social surveys have included questions about female genital cutting status and correlated personal characteristics, no longitudinal studies have been launched that permit investigation of response biases associated with such surveys. This study draws upon the findings of a longitudinal study of women aged 15 to 49 in rural northern Ghana. The self‐reported circumcision status of women interviewed in 1995 was compared…

Sade's Footnotes
Focusing upon the use of the footnote in Histoire de Juliette , this article builds upon earlier work on Sade's footnotes, notably by Andreas Pfersmann and Lucienne Frappier-Mazur, and draws upon the narratological perspectives of Gérard Genette and the Derridean theory of the supplement, to examine how the note provides authorial support for the discourse of the main text, and so may be said to form an integral part of it, rather than a mere per…

A Revaluation of Horestes (1567)
JJISTORIANS of English drama are generally agreed as to the 171 importance of John Pikeryng's Horestes in the development of Elizabethan tragedy. Tucker Brooke, for example, believes that this I567 adaptation of the Orestes legend stands the highest point attained by the transitional interlude in the development of dramatic unity and tragic purpose. Yet the historians have failed to agree on solutions to some of the basic problems that the play p…

The Household Registration System
Efforts to understand social, behavioral, and health characteristics of populations often require longitudinal studies of households Experimental designs, combined with longitudinal monitoring, permit many causal inferences that are not possible with cross-sectional surveys. While such studies retain their conceptual appeal, practical problems often limit their application. Data can be complex to manage, and results can be delayed. This paper pre…

Wordsworth and the Fraternity of Joy
Wordsworth’s poetic work is an attempt to ground community in joy. Passages in “The Prelude” are evidence that it takes this over as a task in response to the perceived insolvency of the French Revolution. The initial euphoria and the solidarity of this euphoria had given way to the Terror with its divisiveness and paranoia: the Revolution had run through its store of joy. If Wordsworth subsequently invents himself as the poet of the simple pleas…
