    The fortieth anniversary of Sartre’s death, on April 15 of this year, found much of the world in lockdown in response to a new virus, Covid-19, which has changed humanity’s situation on this planet in ways we will be struggling to elucidate for years to come. In these unprecedented circumstances, Sartre’s thought has been an obvious resource to help us understand the impact and ramifications of this pandemic. The virus has been an unsparing indicator in itself of social injustice, unmasking the …Read more

    We are thrilled, on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of Sartre Studies International, to publish for the first time in English two interviews on theater given by Sartre to Russia’s oldest continually running theater journal, Teatr, whose first issues date from the 1930s. Six years apart, these two interviews give us the flavor of Sartre addressing a Soviet audience, in early 1956, just before Russian tanks rolled into Hungary and then again in early 1962, as France negotiated its exit out of…Read more

    with John Ireland

    There has rarely been a writer and thinker who saw his writing as more tied to his age than Jean-Paul Sartre. His notion of committed literature argued that writing and thought are anchored first and foremost in their “situation,” the period and context in which they are first produced, disseminated and discussed. One writes for one’s era, he maintained; that is when a piece of writing has its greatest impact. Almost forty years after his death, there is some irony in the fact that Sartre’s writ…Read more

    Victims, Power and Intellectuals: Laruelle and Sartre
    Labyrinth: An International Journal for Philosophy, Value Theory and Sociocultural Hermeneutics 19 (2): 35-56. 2017.
    In two recent works, Intellectuals and Power and General Theory of Victims, François Laruelle offers a critique of the public intellectual, including Jean-Paul Sartre, claiming such intellectuals have a disregard for victims of crimes against humanity. Laruelle insists that the victim has been left out of philosophy and displaced by an abstract pursuit of justice. He offers a non- philosophical approach that reverses the victim/intellectual dyad and calls for compassionate insurrection. In this …Read more

  • Sartrean Ontology: A Dialectical Reconstruction
    Dissertation, Brown University. 1987.
    Certain orthodox claims about the relationship between the early and the later Sartre have been widely established among Sartrean scholars. First, there is the consensus that Being and Nothingness represents Sartre's ontology as opposed to the later works which represent his social philosophy. That there is presumably a split in Sartre's authorship leads to a second popular claim, which identifies a theoretical gap between the early ontology and the subsequent social philosophy. Critics argue ba…Read more

    A Feminist-sartrean Approach To Understanding Rape Trauma
    Sartre Studies International 11 153-165. 2005.
    To many Sartreans, these accounts of the common physical and psychological responses to trauma reflect a familiar view of the self. For Sartre, the self is not an unchanging, underlying essence that guarantees personal identity over time; rather, it is an ongoing project that is founded on our being-in-the-world as embodied freedom, on our concrete relations with others, and, I would add, on our emotions. It thus appears that feminist writings on the effects of sexual trauma could benefit greatl…Read more

    Enduring freedom: Globalizing children's rights
    Hypatia 18 (1): 197-203. 2003.
    : Events surrounding the September 11 terrorist attacks on the United States raise compelling moral questions about the effects of war and globalization on children in many parts of the world. This paper adopts Sartre's notion of freedom, particularly its connection with materiality and intersubjectivity, to assess the moral responsibility that we have as a global community toward our most vulnerable members. We conclude by examining important first steps that should be taken to address the plig…Read more
