What is the challenge which psychoanalysis poses to philosophy? Traditionally the assumption is made that psychoanalysis needs philosophy to provide its foundation. MerleauPonty, for example, was of the opinion that psychoanalysis contains an implicit philosophy that, hidden from view by the scientistic presuppositions of its founder, can only be formulated adequately by phenomenology. The insights of psychoanalysis must be translated into the language of phenomenology. Only then can they reveal their truth.1
In so doing, do we not run the risk of reducing psychoanalysis all too easily to well known philosophical topics, and thereby run the risk of avoiding a genuine confrontation and debate? Regardless of the extent to which psychoanalysis may need philosophy, must we not first ask wha...

[...] Never Again" has become kind of shorthand for the remembrance of the Shoah. Bluntly put, an undeniable gulf exists between the frequency with which the phrase is used - above all on days of remembrance most commonly marking the Shoah, but now, increasingly, other great crimes against humanity - and the reality, which is that 6 5 years after the liberation of the Nazi concentration camps, "never again" has proved to be nothing more than a promise on which no state has ever been willing to deliver.

Desmon critiques the sensuous-erotic spirit in Walker Percy's novels. Among other things, Percy's definition of the sensuous-erotic spirit as "the inspiration of the flesh by the spirit of the flesh" is based upon the traditional Christian distinction between "flesh" and "spirit," in contrast to the popular distinctions between "body" and "soul," or "matter" and "spirit." To understand Percy's development of the sensuous-erotic as a theme in his novels, it is important to emphasize theologian F. X. Durrwell's notion that life in the spirit is rooted in the belief in "the spiritual body" whose "prototype is the risen Christ.

[...] it enlarges the time frame for action and result, decentering the transformative "rights moment" - the landmark case, the smoking gun document, the game-changing revelation - and instead commits the lawyer to a long-term oppositional stance, and a set of daily practices of objection and contravention.347 Second, the resistance frame contextualizes the individual client representation within the larger structures and operations of power, rejecting an atomistic view of lawyering or a diffuse engagement with the state and opting instead for direct confrontation with state violence. The hunger strike is a profound and necessary assertion of the self - messy, unabstracted, and inescapably human. Because Guantánamo places the prisoners on the razor's edge of bare life, such direct res...
