Text of the page (random words):
al examination of carl schmitt s political framework particularly in the context of decisionist regimes in the middle east departing from conventional discussions on schmitt it challenges the perceived stability and power promised by the friend enemy dichotomy revealing the inherent chaos and dysfunction beneath the decisionist facade by contextualizing schmitt s ideas within the complex political landscape of the middle east it sheds light on the region s regimes hitherto unexplored through a schmittian lens distinctive in its approach the book reframes schmitt s theoretical contributions diverging from normative assessments and legal dichotomies to explore the functionality of his proposed political alternative through an interdisciplinary lens that integrates discussions of sectarianization coup proofing and neopatrimonialism it unveils the broader implications of decisionist practices transcending conventional elite centric power analyses offering a unique dual contribution to the literature this book presents a fresh critique of schmitt s ideology challenging its efficacy in ensuring long term regime stability moreover by applying a schmittian perspective to the middle eastern context it not only recontextualizes schmitt s concepts but also prompts new inquiries into the region s political stability marking a significant advancement in the understanding of decisionism and governance dynamics in the middle east posted in uncategorized 1 comment michael r griffiths the death of the author and anticolonial thought palgrave macmillan 2025 and new books discussion posted on august 20 2026 by stuartelden michael r griffiths the death of the author and anticolonial thought palgrave macmillan 2025 new books discussion with maths frickhoeffer thanks to dmf for the link the death of the author and anticolonial thought promises to transform a decades old debate in literary studies about the relation between structure and agency form and intention by giving a detailed account previously unstudied of the way colonized writers have responded to learned from and critiqued the death of the author postulate declared by roland barthes in 1967 the book is a cultural history of these debates with a particular focus on two crucial two key case studies martinican poet and thinker édouard glissant and palestinian literary and cultural critic edward said this book then examines the immediate emergence and intensification of such responses to the postulate of the author s deathly absence from the text in order to suggest that metropolitan literary theory drew both critique and engagement from scholars of black decolonial and global south background from both before 1967 and barthes s declaration and in its wake this book provides a focused account of the early history of the way global literatures have engaged with critiqued and occasionally adopted the lessons and limitations of the poststructuralist critique of

slavery duke university press august 2026 posted on august 19 2026 by stuartelden jennifer c james captive ecologies the environmental afterlives of slavery duke university press august 2026 introduction open access at the above link captive ecologies makes a case for the ecological significance of slavery s afterlife tracing the complex entanglements between racial capitalism and black ecological freedom attending to the ways that racial capitalism implicates both captive bodies and captive land jennifer c james brings into relief the harm that racial capitalism does to black people as well as the human and non human worlds they inhabit james looks to a range of case studies and media from the nineteenth twentieth and twenty first centuries including black music ecopoetics literature social history biography and black feminist and queer art tracing the various ways that the environmental stakes of racial capitalism have shaped the black ecological imagination in these works the concept of captivity signals not only slavery but also black life in the wake carceral spaces and enclosures exploitative economic systems sacrifice zones and more james offers novel concepts and frameworks to generate new modes of ecocriticism that are equipped to grapple with the unique demands and stakes of captive ecologies posted in uncategorized 1 comment ian hunter the kantian religion princeton university press posted on august 19 2026 by stuartelden ian hunter the kantian religion princeton university press april june 2026 interview at the journal of the history of ideas blog with rex butler thanks to foucault news and dmf for the links kantian philosophy is typically viewed as providing a universal theory of knowledge and morality based on timeless principles retrieved from the human mind in the kantian religion ian hunter offers a starkly different account hunter contends that kant s arguments were assembled from purely historical sources and served as ascetic devices for crafting the towering self of the kantian philosopher they were exercises in intellectual self clarification and moral transformation undertaken by a cohort of the philosophically educated in search of spiritual clarity and moral purity these solemn rites of the mind were seen as heir and rival to the regenerative resources and cultural importance of the christian religion and kantianism was characterized as a philosophical religion hunter describes the ways that elite spiritual athletes performed a series of philosophically strenuous acts of the self on the self through kant s intellectual exercises when kantianism emerged as an insurgent cultural movement in the 1780s it offered young academics training to be clergy and teachers a philosophy that was powerful enough to supplant christian spirituality and to subordinate humanist scholarship and the natural sciences to philosophical self reflection for kant and his followers the religious disposition of kantian philosophy came solely from the immanent practice of the philosophy itself as a rival to conventional religion and as an academic interloper kantian philosophy unleashed a wave of conflicts in germany s ecclesiastical and scholarly cultures although recent kant commentary typically views kantianism as intrinsically secular and scientific hunter argues provocatively that kant s contemporaries viewed his philosophy as an extra ecclesiastical path to spiritual refinement and moral regeneration posted in immanuel kant leave a comment helen deutsch the last amateur jonathan swift edward said and the profession of literature university of chicago press june 2026 posted on august 18 2026 by stuartelden helen deutsch the last amateur jonathan swift edward said and the profession of literature university of chicago press june 2026 joining the unfinished conversation between the satirist jonathan swift and the critic edward said the last amateur argues for the transformative potential of literature what does swiftian mean to you for many the name is synonymous with ingenious satire and an acid clarifying mix of decorum and outrage jonathan swift was of course the author of not only gulliver s travels but also a modest proposal which the columnist gene lyons recently called perhaps the most penetrating anti racist essay in the english language small wonder then that the anglo irish satirist was a lifelong inspiration to the great palestinian american critic edward said who for many years worked on an unfinished book about swift and cultivated a swiftian voice across his career helen deutsch s highly personal book explores what said s love of swift and hers of both tells us about not only these authors but also the powers of criticism itself the last amateur is about how one comes to love one writer through another deutsch scrutinizes said in relationship to swift to raise questions of her own about the profession of literary studies at a time when many in the field have lost faith in critique deutsch shows how passion and a refusal of professional propriety the hallmarks of the amateur can enliven critique again what then does it mean to be a swiftian the swiftian hears swift s animus and uses it as an incentive for their own freedom of thought said was a swiftian because the experience of reading swift freed him to speak out to have something serious to say deutsch s revelatory book is an exercise in hearing swift s voice and speaking in her own i wrote about said s abandoned book project on swift briefly in june 2025 based on a little work in columbia s edward said archives the early edward said michel foucault and jonathan swift that used an earlier article by deutsch published in boundary 2 posted in edward said
