Back Over the Sexual Contract

Is patriarchy an illness of democratic societies or a structural problem? To answer this dilemma, Back Over the Sexual Contract: A Hegelian Critique of Patriarchy examines the dilemma of patriarchy in modern European political theory by reopening the question of the "sexual contract." Through a study of the thought of Thomas Hobbes, John Locke, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, and Immanuel Kant, Lorenzo Rustighi argues that the conceptual roots of male patriarchal entitlement should be sought in the logic of authorized power that underpins the modern understanding of both the state and the family. Challenging the mainstream distinction between the private and the public, Rustighi provocatively suggests that patriarchy is not something that undermines democracy as an alien threat, but is rather inscribed in the intrinsically anti-democratic effects of the concept of democracy construed by the modern rationale of the social contract. He puts forward a Hegelian argument to propose an unconventional constitutional approach to feminist political theory that helps us rethink democracy beyond its inherent impasses.

Waging War and Making Peace

The history of Europe is marked not only by violence and division but also by efforts to reduce the destructiveness of war. In this volume, the authors explore the meaning of ‘Europe’ within war and peace discourses from the eighteenth to the twentieth centuries. They examine imagined wars, the post-1815 security order, the portrayal of Russian and Muslim 'Others,' double standards in international law, pacifist rhetoric, and the role of ‘Europe’ in war propaganda and resistance movements. The authors demonstrate how both war and peace practices have shaped the concept of ‘Europe’ over time.

Foucault's Politics of Philosophy

  • Categories: Law

Oriented around the theme of a ‘politics of philosophy’, this book tracks the phases in which Foucault’s genealogy of power, law, and subjectivity was reorganized during the 14 years of his teaching at the College de France, as his focus shifted from sovereignty to governance. This theme, Sandro Chignola argues here, is the key to understanding four features of Foucault’s work over this period. First, it foregrounds its immediate political character. Second, it demonstrates that Foucault’s "Greek trip" also aims at a politics of the subject that is able to face the processes of the governmentalization of power. Third, it makes clear that the idea of the "government of the self" is ...

Ernst Cassirer non è stato né un pensatore politico né un intellettuale impegnato. Quest’opinione tutt’ora persiste nell’immaginario di chi si avvicina a uno dei grandi classici della filosofia europea del Novecento. Il presente volume si propone di revisionare questa rappresentazione datata, presentando uno studio complessivo del pensiero politico cassireriano. Il filosofo si dedicò per tutta la vita e con una notevole continuità di vedute a questioni di filosofia del diritto, della società e dello stato, partecipò alla polemica su identità e collocazione politica della Germania in Europa durante la Prima guerra mondiale, studiò l’origine del nazismo e le strutture di pensiero dei regimi totalitari. Dall’inizio alla fine Cassirer rivendicò una visione liberale e repubblicana, nazionale e cosmopolita, figurando tra i pochi intellettuali che perorarono la causa della Germania di Weimar. La filosofia politica cassireriana parla la lingua del nostro tempo e ci invita a riflettere sulle coordinate che definiscono il nostro presente e la nostra sfera d’azione.
