I’m sorry to see that the wonderful blog, Deliberately Considered, is closing down to make room for a new venture. Deliberately Considered brilliantly captured “the politics of small things.” The new Public Seminar is more of a group blog and links up more closely with the New School’s mission. I’m adding it to my blogroll.
Deliberately Considered exits and makes room for Public Seminar
By Noelle McAfee
I am professor of philosophy at Emory University and editor of the Kettering Review. My latest book, Fear of Breakdown: Politics and Psychoanalysis, explores what is behind the upsurge of virulent nationalism and intransigent politics across the world today. My other writings include Democracy and the Political Unconscious; Habermas, Kristeva, and Citizenship; Julia Kristeva; and numerous articles and book chapters. Edited volumes include Standing with the Public: the Humanities and Democratic Practice and a special issue of the philosophy journal Hypatia on feminist engagements in democratic theory. I am also the author of the entry on feminist political philosophy in the online Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy and well into my next book project on democratic public life.
