PHILOSOPHY 2020/2021

New and Noteworthy Titles

CO LU M BIA UN IVERSI T Y P R ESS C U P. C O L U M B I A . E D U

Letter from the Philosophy Editor: It is with great pleasure that I present the Columbia University Press philosophy catalog for 2020. These titles, which span subjects from critical theory to political philosophy to philosophy of religion, aesthetics, environmental and animal philosophy, philosophy of science, philosophy of gender, and Asian philosophy, reflect the interdisciplinary and global approach of our list and exemplify the innovative and field-changing scholarship that we value.

Among the many outstanding titles in this year’s wide-ranging catalog several deserve special attention. In the area of critical theory Bernard Harcourt’s masterwork Critique and Praxis challenges us to move beyond decades of philosophical detours and to harness critical thought to the need for action, while Amy Allen’s eagerly awaited Critique on the Couch persuasively argues that psychoanalysis, in providing an analysis of human subjectivity, is essential to the progressive, emancipatory aims of critique.

Also on the subject of global political theory, Gavin Arnall’s revelatory work Subterranean Fanon offers a rigorous and profoundly original engagement that affirms Fanon’s importance in the effort to bring about radical change. Out of the Dark Night by Achille Mbembe is a nuanced exploration of African postcolonial thought, while Antonio Gramsci’s Subaltern Social Groups, edited and translated by Joseph A. Buttigieg and Marcus E. Green, collects Gramsci’s writings on subalternity, a category that he originated, from Notebook 25 and elsewhere.

And Universality and Identity Politics by Todd McGowan restores to the Left the legitimacy of its origins: the promise of universal emancipation.

Among the important new titles in philosophy of religion are three entries in our new No Limits series, edited by Costica Bradatan. Mark Taylor’s Intervolution reveals that we are already cyborgs, integral cogs in what will become a superorganism of bodies and things. Touch by Richard Kearney argues that touch is our most primordial sense, foundational to our individual and common selves. Aimlessness by Tom Lutz asks us to give up our striving for achievement and instead become sidetracked, get lost, and daydream. Wisdom as a Way of Life is Steven Collins’ final work, a powerful argument that Theravāda Buddhism offers insights into the self and how to act that are relevant today.

Other exciting new books of note include Foucault’s Strange Eros by Lynne Huffer, a haunting reevaluation of Foucault’s ethics as experiments in living that work poetically to make the present strange. Barbara Carnevali’s Social Appearances takes aim at Western philosophy’s disdain for the surface, showing that understanding social life is necessary to grasp the dynamics of interaction, recognition, and power in which we live. N. Katherine Hayles’ strikingly original Postprint spans book studies, cultural theory, and media archeology in demonstrating the role of computational media in the ongoing evolution of humanity. The Wake of Crows by Thom van Dooren considers five sites where the lives of crows and humans are entangled and asks if possibilities still exist for living and dying well on a damaged planet. Why Veganism Matters by Gary L. Francione offers a persuasive and powerful argument for all readers who care about animals but are not sure whether they have a moral obligation to be vegan.

I am confident that you will find much to enjoy and ponder in these pages. My colleagues and I look forward to continuing our dialogue.

Critique on the Couch Why Critical Theory Needs Psychoanalysis Amy Allen

Does critical theory still need psychoanalysis?

Amy Allen offers a cogent and convincing defense of its ongoing relevance. She draws on Freud, Klein, and Lacan to develop a more realistic strand of psychoanalytic thinking that centers on notions of loss, negativity, ambivalence, and mourning. $28.00 / £22.00 paper 978-0-231-19861-5 $95.00 / £78.00 cloth 978-0-231-19860-8 December 2020 272 pages

THEORY

Aimlessness

Out of the Dark Night

Achille Mbembe

Tom Lutz

Essays on Decolonization

Aimlessness collects ideas and stories from around the world that value indirection, wandering, getting lost, waiting, meandering, lingering, sitting, laying about, daydreaming, and other ways to be open to possibility, chaos, and multiplicity.

In Out of the Dark Night, Achille Mbembe offers a rich analysis of the paradoxes of the postcolonial moment that points toward new liberatory models of community and humanity. In a nuanced consideration of the African experience, Mbembe makes sweeping interventions into debates about citizenship, identity, democracy, and modernity. He ranges across European and African thought to provide a powerful assessment of common ways of writing and thinking about Africa.

The Betrayal of Substance

Subterranean Fanon

An Underground Theory of Radical Change

Death, Literature, and Sexual Difference in Hegel’s “Phenomenology of Spirit”

Gavin Arnall

Mary C. Rawlinson

Mary C. Rawlinson offers a critical analysis of Hegel’s Phenomenology of Spirit that exposes three crucial elisions: Hegel’s effacements of sexual difference, human mortality, and literary style. Demonstrating the power of Hegel’s phenomenological method, The Betrayal of Substance is a magisterial rereading of this challenging masterwork.

The problem of change recurs across Frantz Fanon’s writings. Gavin Arnall traces an internal division throughout Fanon’s work, contending that there are two Fanons: a dominant Fanon who conceives of change as a dialectical process of becoming and a subterranean Fanon who experiments with an even more explosive underground theory of transformation.

Seeing Ourselves

Decisions and Transformations

Reclaiming Humanity from God and Science

The Phenomenology of Embodiment

Raymond Tallis

James Richard Mensch

In Seeing Ourselves, philosopher and neuroscientist Raymond Tallis goes in search of what kind of beings we are, and where we might find meaning in our lives. Showcasing a remarkably detailed engagement with a huge range of disciplines, Tallis shows the unique nature of human consciousness.

To say that we are embodied subjects is to affirm that we are both extended and conscious: both a part of the material world and a place where that world comes to presence. James Mensch traces out the effects of this paradox on phenomenology.

THEORY

In the Ruins of Neoliberalism

The Poetic Apriori

Philosophical Imagination in a Meaningful Universe

The Rise of Antidemocratic Politics in the West

Raymond C. Barfield

Wendy Brown

Theories about the nature and function of philosophical imagination depend on our understanding of what kind of universe we inhabit. Raymond C. Barfield discusses conditions that would be necessary if the universe is meaningful as a whole and then develops a theory of philosophical imagination in light of that starting place.

Wendy Brown explains the hard-right turn in Western politics. She argues that neoliberalism’s intensification of nihilism coupled with its accidental wounding of white male supremacy generates an apocalyptic populism willing to destroy the world rather than endure a future in which this supremacy disappears.

The Experience of Injustice

Political Categories

Thinking Beyond Concepts

A Theory of Recognition

Michael Marder

Emmanuel Renault

Translated by Richard A. Lynch

Michael Marder proposes a new methodology for political science and philosophy, one he terms “categorial thinking.” Under this lens, the political appears not as a singular concept but as a family of categories, allowing room for new, plural, and often antagonistic ideas about the state, the people, sovereignty, and power. $30.00 / £24.00 paper 978-0-231-18869-2 $105.00 / £88.00 cloth 978-0-231-18868-5 2019 272 pages

In The Experience of Injustice, the French philosopher Emmanuel Renault opens an important new chapter in critical theory. Inspired by Axel Honneth, Renault argues that a radicalized version of Honneth’s ethics of recognition can provide a systematic alternative to the liberal-democratic projects of such thinkers as Rawls and Habermas. $75.00 / £62.00 cloth 978-0-231-17706-1 2019 304 pages

POLITICS

The Sublime of the Political

Bodies of Democracy Modes of Embodied Politics

Narrative and Autoethnography as Theory Dean Caivano and Sarah Naumes

Amanda Machin

Dean Caivano and Sarah Naumes argue that storytelling in the form of narrative and autoethnography creates an emancipatory potential through its ability to theorize from below, welcoming marginalized and excluded voices. They offer a new assessment of political texts to challenge who can write and disseminate political ideas—and how.

Amanda Machin considers six embodied modes of democratic politics: identification, deliberation, disagreement, protest, occupation, and counsel. Drawing on diverse thinkers, she offers an absorbing illustration of the ways that human bodies are not only the disciplined objects of politics but also the generative subjects of democracy.

Conspiring with the Enemy

Denis Lacorne

Yvonne Chiu

Enlightenment Values and Religious Fanaticism

The Ethic of Cooperation in Warfare

Denis Lacorne traces the emergence of the modern notion of religious tolerance in order to rethink how we should respond to its contemporary tensions. He defends the Enlightenment concept against recent attempts to circumscribe it, arguing that without it a pluralistic society cannot survive.

In Conspiring with the Enemy, Yvonne Chiu offers a new understanding of why and how enemies work together to constrain violence in warfare. Chiu argues that what she calls an ethic of cooperation is found in modern warfare to such an extent that it is often taken for granted.

Histories and Memories of Exclusion

Noëlle McAfee

Edited by Vijaya Rao, Shambhavi Prakash, Mallarika Sinha Roy, and Papori Bora

This book seeks to explore the multiplicity of memories and experiences of belonging and exclusion in a range of societies that have been marked by displacement. The volume draws from the wide fields of literature, humanities, and social sciences to reflect on the questions of displacement and citizenship from different vantage points.

Noëlle McAfee uses psychoanalytic theory to explore the subterranean anxieties behind current crises and the ways in which democratic practices can help work through seemingly intractable political conflicts. Fear of Breakdown contends that politics needs something that only psychoanalysis has been able to offer. $30.00 / £25.00 paper 978-0-231-19269-9

N. Katherine Hayles traces the emergence of what she identifies as the postprint condition, exploring how the interweaving of print and digital technologies has changed not only books but also language, authorship, and what it means to be human.

In this deeply original consideration of Foucault’s erotic ethics, Lynne Huffer provocatively rewrites Foucault as a Sapphic poet. She uncovers eros as a mode of thought that erodes the interiority of the thinking subject.

A Reader

Barbara Carnevali

Edited by Giovanni Aloi and Susan McHugh

Translated by Zakiya Hanafi

In this strikingly original book, Barbara Carnevali offers a philosophical examination of the roles that appearances play in social life.

While Western metaphysics and morals have predominantly disdained appearances and expelled them from their domain, Carnevali invites us to look at society, ancient to contemporary, as an aesthetic phenomenon.

Posthumanism in Art and Science is an anthology of indispensable statements and artworks featuring a diverse sampling of major thinkers as well as acclaimed artists and curators. Their provocative and compelling works speak to the ongoing conceptual and political challenge of posthuman theories in a time of cultural and environmental crises.

Using Beckett’s published and archival material, he shows how Beckett distilled an understanding of quietism and turned it into a new aesthetic. $46.00 paper 978-3-8382-1369-9 2020 272 pages 2 illus.

A Philosophy of the Insect

Epistenology

Jean-Marc Drouin

Nicola Perullo

Wine as Experience

Translated by Anne Trager

The philosopher and historian of science JeanMarc Drouin contends that insects pose a fundamental challenge to philosophy. Exploring the questions of what insects are and what scientific, aesthetic, ethical, and historical relationships they have with humanity, he argues that they force us to reconsider our ideas of the animal and the social. $28.00 / £22.00 paper 978-0-231-17579-1 $85.00 / £70.00 cloth 978-0-231-17578-4 2019 240 pages

The Mingjia and Related Texts

Readings of Śāntideva’s Guide to Bodhisattva Practice

Essentials in the Understanding of the Development of Pre-Qin Philosophy

Edited by Jonathan C. Gold and Douglas S. Duckworth

Translated by Ian Johnston and Wang Ping

Śāntideva’s eighth-century work, the Guide to Bodhisattva Practice (Bodhicaryāvatāra), is one of the crucial texts of the Buddhist ethical and philosophical tradition. This book serves as a companion to the Indian Buddhist classic, illuminating the Guide’s many philosophical, literary, ritual, and ethical dimensions.

The Mingjia (School of Names) is a notional grouping of philosophers living between the sixth and third centuries BCE whose identifying feature was a concern with linguistic issues particularly involving the correct use of names.

This is a comprehensive work on this school of thought.

Alain Badiou

Translated by Jason E. Smith with Susan Spitzer.

Introduction by Jason E. Smith

Edited by Archie Henderson

This wide-ranging collection of essays examines modern intellectuals and ideologues. Matthew Feldman calls attention to the substantial role played in post–Great War Europe and the United States by religions—both familiar monotheisms like Christianity and secular “political faiths”—over the last century of upheaval.

Alain Badiou offers a tour de force encounter with a lesser-known seventeenth-century philosopher and theologian, Nicolas Malebranche, a contemporary and peer of Spinoza and Leibniz.

The seminar is at once a record of Badiou’s thought at a key moment and a lively interrogation of Malebranche’s key text, the Treatise on Nature and Grace.

On the Judgment of History

Joan Wallach Scott

An Annotated Critical Selection from The Untouchables

B. R. Ambedkar

Joan Wallach Scott critically examines the belief that history will redeem us, revealing the implicit politics of appeals to the judgment of history. She argues that the notion of a linear, ever-improving direction of history hides the persistence of power structures and hinders the pursuit of alternative futures.

B. R. Ambedkar spent his life battling Untouchability and instigating the end of the caste system. In his 1948 book The Untouchables, he sought to trace the origin of Untouchability.

Beef, Brahmins, and Broken Men is an annotated selection from this work, produced in a time when the oppression of and discrimination against Dalits remains pervasive.

How Touch Shapes Experience and Meaning

Ernst Bloch

Translated by Loren Goldman and

Liane Carlson

Peter Thompson

Liane Carlson historicizes contingency by tying it to its theological and etymological roots in “touch,” contending that its disruptive power is specific to our current moment. A strikingly original reconsideration of one of continental philosophy and critical theory’s most cherished concepts, this book reveals the limits of historicist accounts.

Ernst Bloch gives a striking account of materialism that traces emancipatory elements of modern thought to medieval Islamic philosophers’ encounter with Aristotle.

He argues that the great medieval Islamic philosopher Avicenna (Ibn Sina) planted the seeds of a radical materialism still relevant for critical theory today.

James Heintz tackles the shortcomings of macroeconomics in relation to gender dynamics and challenges the dominant methods and measurements, suggesting new ways of framing macroeconomic concepts. He concludes by considering implications for how this new way of thinking could transform policy making in the future.

In Hunting Girls, Kelly Oliver examines popular culture’s fixation on representing young women as predators and prey and the implication that violence—especially sexual violence—is an inevitable, perhaps even celebrated, part of a woman’s maturity.
