Excited to get into Ethan Kleinberg's new contribution!

Confronting the epistemic challenges posed by conspiracy theories, revisionism and post-truth claims, Kleinberg traces a historiography adequate to the peculiarities of our present.

Frantz Fanon would have been 100 years old today!

Although I love his two classic works, Black Skin, White Masks and The Wretched of the Earth, I encourage you all, on his birthday no less, to get to know Fanon better. Read his letters, his psychiatric writings, his speeches and his plays!

When I set about seriously investigating G.W.F Hegel's youth in Stuttgart, Hegel-Studien, the scientific journal attached to the Hegel-Archiv and the modern critical edition project, served as an indispensable treasure trove for my research.

It's an honour to finally be published in its pages!

The 20th of July will mark the 100th anniversary of Frantz Fanon's birth

In his honour, a film directed by Abdenour Zahzah will be released this month tracing the young man's time as the head of the fifth ward of the Blida-Joinville psychiatric hospital, set during 1953 in colonised Algeria

Engels thought that the future uninhabitability of the earth for humans posed problems for Hegel's philosophy of history.

Natural scientists being 'fairy certain' about this proved that there is not only an 'ascending but also a descending branch of human history'!
