Apropos of today’s news I just had a piece published in Radical Philosophy about the turn towards biological essentialism in law and policy. I’m arguing the SC decision in FWS and attempts to restrict disability welfare fundamentally come from the same place of wanting to limit state protections

Thank you for replugging this and for writing this @rahulraothariel.bsky.social — and for bringing us back to Fanon as Fanon

replugging this in the week of Fanon's 100th birthday, because the way he is misinterpreted keeps me up at night

And 40 years after Peter Osborne published his now (in)famous review of Rose’s Hegel contra Sociology in RP, R. L. Scott has written a really interesting piece on what her phenomenology of necessary illusion brings to critical theory today. Enjoy your August reading!

The current issue of @radical-philosophy.bsky.social has Francesco Anselmetti writing on the dialectic of thought and action in the writings of Ghassan Kanafani www.radicalphilosophy.com/article/brea...
Kanafani was neither born a Marxist, nor can his ideo-
logical turn as part of the Popular Front’s emergence be
adequately described as an ‘adoption’ of Marxism. The
necessity of an idea tends to precede its arrival: if the
former is adequately accounted for, the latter rarely ap-
pears a matter of pure choice.

You can find my review of Melyana Kay Lamb's 'Philosophical History of Police Power' in the new Radical Philosophy @radical-philosophy.bsky.social
It's a really interesting book, but I have some issues with the level of abstraction it takes towards police power.

It's hard to imagine Radical Philosophy without CRMEP - so many former and current members of the editorial collective have either taught or trained there
