A Philosophy of Concrete Life

Carl Schmitt's work - consisting of polemical moves in immediate intellectual and political contexts - is not usually thought of as forming a recognizable system. A Philosophy of Concrete Life challenges this interpretation. In this book, the author demonstrates that there is indeed a common metaphysical core passing through Schmitt's work as a whole. On account of this metaphysical core, the author calls Schmitt's thought a «philosophy of the extreme», thus emphasizing its embeddedness in the late modern tradition of philosophical extremism from Kierkegaard to Foucault. Despite this strictly philosophical objective, however, the book is also a lucid presentation of all of Schmitt's central ideas and concepts from the 1920's to the 1960's, offering a comprehensible introduction to the work of this controversial political thinker.

Carl Schmitt in the Middle East

This book presents a critical examination of Carl Schmitt's political framework, particularly in the context of decisionist regimes in the Middle East. Departing from conventional discussions on Schmitt, it challenges the perceived stability and power promised by the 'friend-enemy' dichotomy, revealing the inherent chaos and dysfunction beneath the decisionist facade. By contextualizing Schmitt's ideas within the complex political landscape of the Middle East, it sheds light on the region's regimes, hitherto unexplored through a Schmittian lens. Distinctive in its approach, the book reframes Schmitt's theoretical contributions, diverging from normative assessments and legal dichotomies to ex...

A Modern Perspective on Type Theory

This book provides an overview of type theory. The first part of the book is historical, yet at the same time, places historical systems in the modern setting. The second part deals with modern type theory as it developed since the 1940s, and with the role of propositions as types (or proofs as terms. The third part proposes new systems that bring more advantages together.

Dynamic Worlds

Surveys and synthesizes recent work in the field, and presents new research results. Among topics treated are logics for reasoning about actions and planning, belief revision and the reconciliation of logically conflicting inputs, resolution of conflicts by merging of knowledge, and issues in the evolution of object-oriented databases. Other subjects include action and change in rewriting logic, heterogeneous systems for modeling dynamic worlds, and reasoning about actual and hypothetical occurrences of concurrent and non- deterministic actions.
