August 12, 2019Ghislaine Pages

Jeff Stein | The Online Space of Praxis

June 26, 2019Ghislaine Pages

John Finnegan | Don’t Fear the People

June 5, 2019Ghislaine Pages

By John Finnegan I left Praxis 9/13, “Left Populism,” wondering where the Left in America should go. The panelists had largely spoken in a “chorus,” as Seyla Benhabib put it, against the dangers of “left populism,” (although there was much… Continue Reading →

John Finnegan | Necroresistance as Destitution

June 5, 2019Ghislaine Pages

By John Finnegan Banu Bargu’s ethnography and theoretical exploration of the Turkish death fasters differs from many of the prior texts read in this seminar series in declining to offer much prescriptive content. Unlike, say, Chantal Mouffe’s For a Left… Continue Reading →

Shaunna Rodrigues | Epilogue to 8/13

May 23, 2019Ghislaine Pages
