New article, long in the making. On Alexander von Humboldt’s critique of natural-historical concepts of race and his diagnosis of a politics of racialised difference leveraged in the colonies. I try to say: there are good reasons to look beyond Kant!

Are you dying to know if Hegel hated ersatz coffee? Then boy do I have the piece for you. Very happy to be part of the JHI blog forum on political economy in intellectual history!
As part of the JHI Blog forum on political economy, Marie Louise Krogh examines Hegel's rare reflections on the 19th century international coffee industry as an entry point into the theoretical stakes of political economy in the midst of European imperialism.

Just some random (Marxist (Obviously)) thoughts about the whole tariffs thing:
A lot of people seem to be approaching this as if capitalism is generally a harmonious happy system in which (pace Ricardo) if trade is just left alone then everyone benefits because the ‘economic’ logic bears out.

Sad to learn that Anson Rabinbach has passed away. His work In the Shadow of Catastrophe and contributions on fascism and anti-fascism (such as his essay on The Brown Book, below) have left an indelible mark on me over the years.

I still can’t believe we made it: The recent Oxford Handbook to Nineteenth-Century Women Philosophers in the German Tradition presents such solid scholarship from the 30 contributors. (Somewhat) color-synchronized with Women Philosophers in the Nineteenth Century.
