Ethics and Phenomenology
Ethics and Phenomenology examines the relevance of major phenomenologists and phenomenological concepts to ethical inquiry in general, as well as to a broad range of contemporary ethical issues.
Spiritual Life and Secular Thought
Contemporary western society has witnessed an emerging trend of people identifying as "spiritual but not religious." In this volume, King-Ho Leung seeks to take seriously the notion of "spiritual but not religious" as a philosophical concept. Drawing on insights from philosophers such as Martin Heidegger, Hannah Arendt, Gilles Deleuze, and Giorgio Agamben, Spiritual Life and Secular Thought develops a philosophical definition of "spirituality" that is not only applicable to religious and non-religious outlooks alike, but moreover can shed light on the character of human experience and existence in the world.
The Existential Husserl
This book examines Husserl’s approach to the question concerning meaning in life and demonstrates that his philosophy includes a phenomenology of existence. Given his critique of the fashionable “philosophy of existence” of the late 1920s and early 1930s, one might think that Husserl posited an opposition between transcendental phenomenology and existential philosophy, as well as that in this respect he differed from existential phenomenologists after him. But texts composed between 1908 and 1937 and recently published in Husserliana XLII, Grenzprobleme der Phänomenologie (2014), show that the existential Husserl was not opposed but open to the phenomenological investigation of severa...
The Porosity of the Self
The Porosity of the Self provides an original interpretation and comprehensive examination of the philosophy of Edmund Husserl 1859-1938), the founder of phenomenology and one of the most important and influential philosophers of the 19th–20th century. The book is unique in providing an exploration of the philosophical problem of the self, drawn from key texts across Husserl’s work. The book challenges prevailing philosophical accounts of self and personhood that are predominantly one-dimensional and that often fail to capture the intricate double-sidedness of how we experience ourselves, others, and the world. The book demonstrates how Husserl’s philosophy offers an important alternat...

Technocracy and Political Truth
The inability to envision political alternatives – or, to use Arendt’s terminology, to make new beginnings – is a key component of today’s democratic crisis. In its first part, this study shows that this situation results from the growing technocratization of both government and the democratic public sphere, which hinders the ability to form new political judgments. By analyzing rationalized bureaucracy, which substitutes automated procedures for political decision, and mass democracy, which permits the infinite expansion of the administration’s purview, an account of technocracy as administrative, non-political rule is constructed. The book’s second part expands on this diagnosis by examining how political judgment differs from epistemic reasoning. This examination puts into dialogue Arendt, Kant, and Vico, reviving a humanist understanding of common sense (sensus communis) and ingenuity (ingenium). This allows us to rethink political judgment as both cognitively immediate and reflectively plural, showcasing how technocratic decision-making illegitimately delimits the horizon for political judgments and new beginnings.
Spaces of Appearance
Present whenever people act together and yet never seen for what they do, spaces of appearance come in many guises: a car crash in Vienna, a discussion forum in Dresden, a baker’s queue in Paris, an art festival in Shiraz, an unbuilt house in Istanbul, a law court in Berlin, a photograph from Arkansas. Taking their cue from Hannah Arendt’s famous concept, the case studies in this volume, written in close collaboration, examine how the perceptive standards of a given political situation may subtly change or consolidate. Supported by a wealth of images, this volume demonstrates how the concept can be activated for innovative research ‒ especially in cases where an understanding of aesthetics and politics needs to go beyond their analogization. Featuring an essay by Susan Buck-Morss.
Phenomenology of Plurality
Winner of the 2018 Edward Goodwin Ballard Book Prize awarded by the Center for Advanced Research in Phenomenology This book develops a unique phenomenology of plurality by introducing Hannah Arendt’s work into current debates taking place in the phenomenological tradition. Loidolt offers a systematic treatment of plurality that unites the fields of phenomenology, political theory, social ontology, and Arendt studies to offer new perspectives on key concepts such as intersubjectivity, selfhood, personhood, sociality, community, and conceptions of the "we." Phenomenology of Plurality is an in-depth, phenomenological analysis of Arendt that represents a viable third way between the "modernist" and "postmodernist" camps in Arendt scholarship. It also introduces a number of political and ethical insights that can be drawn from a phenomenology of plurality. This book will appeal to scholars interested in the topics of plurality and intersubjectivity within phenomenology, existentialism, political philosophy, ethics, and feminist philosophy.
