Journal for contemporary philosophy
See our call for papers for the December 2010 issue on the crisis in economics.
The new issue is online!
In recognition of the twenty-fifth anniversary of Michel Foucault's death, this issue of Krisis is dedicated to this still much-discussed philosopher. Guest editors Marc Schuilenburg and Sjoerd van Tuinen present five articles on Foucault's work and the way his ideas have been taken up by others. Particularly, attention is paid to his later work and his concepts of biopolitics and governmentality.
Apart from the special issue, there is an article by Hans Harbers, in which he deploys autobiographical reflection in order to develop an economics of care. Appropriate to the theme of this issue Friso van Houdt discusses two books - Critique of Security by Mark Neocleous and Governing through Crime by Jonathan Simon - that deal with biopolitics, governmentality and crime.
