This conversation with Samuel McCormick is the second in a series titled "Reading Lacan's Ecrits". The first conversation prepared Philosophy Portal for teaching Lacan's Ecrits, and this second conversation opens up a post-course reflection and
In this discussion, David, Ann and I discuss the importance of thinking The Idea of the University in the contemporary neoliberal and digitised political-economic landscape. The Idea of the University is a book by existentialist philosopher Ka
Johannes A. Niederhauser argues that death is a central notion in Martin Heidegger’s work on the questions being and time, and even takes us to the core of Heidegger's entire thinking path. Thus, Heidegger is not merely approaching death as an
G.W.F Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit is often conceived as Hegel's classic work, and one of the most important texts in the history of philosophy. How are we to conceive of this work? This question can be framed in many ways: How are we to u
The commons is an ancient social structure of allowing for the exchange of value. The act of commoning can be defined as the act of exchanging with the ‘whole’ (i.e. doing something for the self as part of a larger tribe, clan, family, rather
There is an excess which repeats most easily when not observed (it does not want to be observed?). This excess is its own knowledge as the center of enjoyment and truth of identity. Of relevance to our on-going discussion, the excess seems to
Metaphysics concerns the study of first principles of being (e.g. identity, change, space, time, causality, necessity, possibility). In other words, whereas physics studies the physical world, metaphysics is the study of the fundamental catego
The dating landscape used to be generally regulated by a traditional-normative symbolic structure which organized society towards a more-or-less clear value-form: marriage/pair-bonding. The modern dating landscape has largely lost this symboli
We feel the lack of an absolute being, and reality itself seems to lack as a split between atom/void. Here we play with the imaginary of the mind which exists in this split between nothing and everything: what would it look like if we could “s
We started our first discourse on lack in the context of the origin of philosophy in the Parmenidean presupposition of absolute being banishing the void; and its relationship to the emergence of psychoanalysis as a discipline that operates by n
Absolute Knowledge is a notoriously difficult and confusing concept in Hegel’s philosophy (and yet represents the name of the last chapter of his masterwork Phenomenology of Spirit). Here I attempt to frame the discourse by discussing the exper
Philosophy is a discipline classically concerned with "Being", or the presence of Something. Why is there Something rather than Nothing? However, after more than a century of psychoanalysis, we may say that the human subject is an entity of L
The second discourse on masculinity and masculine movements shifts exploration from the red pill community and the connection between masculinity and religion, towards an ethics of action, or general principles, that would possibly help ground
In the second trialogue on gender trouble/theory we attempt to shift focus from alternatives to binary classification schemes (i.e. triadic, quadratic, or complexified categorization schemes) to the impossibility or the problem at the core of g
In the second trialogue on the evolutionary versus religious worldview we attempt to build on our original notions that a synthesis between evolutionary and religious worldviews can be found in the fact that religions themselves evolve. In orde
The most advanced pre-modern civilizations (historical societies) were built on metaphysical presuppositions that we call “religious”. Modern secular society questioned these presuppositions on scientific (and often evolutionary) grounds. The
In this conversation I host Alexander Bard and Alexander Elung to discuss the philosophy of "transcendental emergentism" and its relation to the future of philosophy, science and community. Transcendental emergentism is a notion that attempts
In this trialogue we attempt to introduce the notion of "Noopolitik" or "politics of the noosphere". In the 20th century, the birth of our global world was mediated by two mega powers and their economic methods (i.e. United States and capitali
In this discussion we are going to be diving into the notion of freedom after the introduction of Hegelian philosophy. We will be probing into the consequence of Hegel's philosophy for contradiction, motion, identity, and religion. This disco
