    La Réception nord-américaine de Folie et déraison de Foucault
    Symposium 26 (1): 12-36. 2022.
    This article aims at understanding the North-American reception of Foucault’s Folie et déraison. After showing how American conceptions of social control facilitated the integration of Foucauldian thinking in North-American academia, I examine the ways by which the advocates of anti-psychiatry and the historians of psychiatry read Folie et déraison, which became emblematic for French Theory. I then present various Anglo-American critiques of Folie et déraison and defend the persistence of a “Fou…Read more
    This article aims at understanding the North-American reception of Foucault’s Folie et déraison. After showing how American conceptions of social control facilitated the integration of Foucauldian thinking in North-American academia, I examine the ways by which the advocates of anti-psychiatry and the historians of psychiatry read Folie et déraison, which became emblematic for French Theory. I then present various Anglo-American critiques of Folie et déraison and defend the persistence of a “Foucauldian spirit” against the sci-entifization of psychiatry. All this allows for an assessment of the legacy of Folie et déraison in the North American debates.

    Towards a liberal Utopia: The connection between Foucault’s reporting on the Iranian Revolution and the ethical turn
    Philosophy and Social Criticism 36 (7): 801-818. 2010.
    The shift in Foucault’s work from genealogy to ethics finds consensus among Foucault scholars. However, the motivations behind this transition remain either misunderstood or understudied in large part. Foucault’s recently published or soon-to-be translated 1977/—9 lectures (published as Security, Territory, Population and as The Birth of Biopolitics) offer new elements for understanding this dense and uncharted period along Foucault’s itinerary. In this article, the author argues that Foucault’s…Read more
    The shift in Foucault’s work from genealogy to ethics finds consensus among Foucault scholars. However, the motivations behind this transition remain either misunderstood or understudied in large part. Foucault’s recently published or soon-to-be translated 1977/—9 lectures (published as Security, Territory, Population and as The Birth of Biopolitics) offer new elements for understanding this dense and uncharted period along Foucault’s itinerary. In this article, the author argues that Foucault’s interpretation of the liberal tradition, which is at the core of the 1977—9 lectures, must be examined in combination with Foucault’s other major interests in the late 1970s, namely the Iranian Revolution and Kant. The discovery of spirituality (Iran), the valorization of an autonomous subject (Kant) and the call for a tolerant environment towards minority practices (liberalism) pave the way for the later Foucault’s ethics, which are grounded in spiritual exercises and means of liberating the subject.

    Germinal Life: The Difference and Repetition of Deleuze (review)
    Dialogue 41 (1): 197-198. 2002.
    L'œuvre de Deleuze contient encore beaucoup de mystères. L'unité de la philosophie deleuzienne est-elle à chercher du côté d'une ontologie? Constitue-t-elle une ardente défense de l'immanence radicale? S'agit-il plutôt d'une philosophie du virtuel? Le consensus fait défaut autour de cette œuvre polymorphe. K. Ansell Pearson prend ici le parti de placer l'entreprise deleuzienne sous la bannière du vitalisme. Cet aspect de l'œuvre deleuzienne avait bien sûr déjà été remarqué. De manière explicite,…Read more
    L'œuvre de Deleuze contient encore beaucoup de mystères. L'unité de la philosophie deleuzienne est-elle à chercher du côté d'une ontologie? Constitue-t-elle une ardente défense de l'immanence radicale? S'agit-il plutôt d'une philosophie du virtuel? Le consensus fait défaut autour de cette œuvre polymorphe. K. Ansell Pearson prend ici le parti de placer l'entreprise deleuzienne sous la bannière du vitalisme. Cet aspect de l'œuvre deleuzienne avait bien sûr déjà été remarqué. De manière explicite, Deleuze condamne lui-même l'idéalisme au nom des forces de la vie. L'auteur ne nous apprend donc rien de neuf en assimilant le deleuzisme à la dernière des grandes pensées vitalistes. Là où il innove, c'est en donnant une consistance à l'ensemble des concepts biophilosophiques du système deleuzien. Des notions insuffisamment problématisées par les interprètes qui se contentent le plus souvent de reproduire la langue deleuzienne sans en penser la cohérence d'ensemble. C'est ainsi que les notions de devenir-animal, de vie anorganique et de corps sans organes trouvent un sens à travers l'idée avancée par l'auteur d'une «vie germinale».

    Introduction to Gilles Deleuze’s Cosmological Sensibility
    Философия И Космология 16 (1): 199-210. 2016.
    The Deleuzean literature paid relatively little attention to the relationships between Deleuze and cosmology. Yet, Deleuze remains one of the few key contemporary philosophers who stayed connect- ed to the cosmological tradition. The expression of this interest and the contribution to this domain can be found, for example, in his borrowing of James Joyce’s neologism “chaosmos,” admiration for Whitehead’s essay on cosmology, or, following Artaud and Blanchot, in his appeal for an outside of any e…Read more
    The Deleuzean literature paid relatively little attention to the relationships between Deleuze and cosmology. Yet, Deleuze remains one of the few key contemporary philosophers who stayed connect- ed to the cosmological tradition. The expression of this interest and the contribution to this domain can be found, for example, in his borrowing of James Joyce’s neologism “chaosmos,” admiration for Whitehead’s essay on cosmology, or, following Artaud and Blanchot, in his appeal for an outside of any exteriority. This paper discusses Deleuze’s original cosmological way of thinking and delineates Deleuze’s own cosmological affectivity.

    The Death of Gilles Deleuze as Composition of a Concept
    with Douglas Ord
    Deleuze and Guatarri Studies 11 (1): 121-138. 2017.
    There was a wide range of in memoriam and homages published in the years following Deleuze's suicide. However, none of them succeeded in grasping ‘the evential’ aspect of his death. This paper identifies a series of errors in the literature on Deleuze's death. It also suggests a way to overcome them by considering a singular encounter between Alice's passage through the looking glass and Deleuze's defenestration, which both took place on 4 November. We will show how a new conception of death as …Read more

It also suggests a way to overcome them by considering a singular encounter between Alice's passage through the looking glass and Deleuze's defenestration, which both took place on 4 November. We will show how a new conception of death as event comes out of this unseen connection.

    Dialogue 42 (1): 179-181. 2003.
    Hans Jonas est né en Allemagne et il fut l’élève de Bultmann, Husserl et Heidegger. Sa vie est placée sous le signe du voyage. Il émigre d’abord, en 1933, en Palestine, puis au Canada où il enseigne, au début des années 1950, aux Universités de Montréal et d’Ottawa avant de s’installer aux États-Unis où il occupe la chaire de philosophie à la New School for Social Research de New York.

C’est durant ces années new-yorkaises qu’il rédige ses deux principaux ouvrages: Das Prinzip Verantwortung. Versuch einer Ethik für die technologische Zivilisation et The Phenomenon of Life dont la première publication remonte à 1966. On assiste aujourd’hui à la redécouverte de ce livre qui non seulement fait l’objet d’une nouvelle édition aux presses de la Northwestern University, mais vient aussi d’être publié dans une première traduction française chez De Boeck Université.
