Introduction
My intellectual point of departure is the duty to make the will to know conscious of itself as a problem. To this end, I draw on modern European (so-called Continental) thought to articulate the philosophical method of critical history. It implores an historically grounded critique of the worldly and earthly relations that both enable and limit the human condition, which today must be thought within the horizon of the event of the Anthropocene.

Drawing on struggles within academe between faculty that promote critical education and advocates of New Public Management (NPM) who endorse instrumental learning, I reimagine the university as a counter-space that positions it as a counter-power to informational capitalism. Initially, I outline its twin threats: ethical, as self-entrepreneurial ac...
This article focuses on the ethical quandary of Zygmunt Bauman's interpretation of modernity as a double logic that heralds both emancipation and domination. After outlining his liberation sociology and the liquid moral ontologies he discerns, it argues Bauman's solution to the consumption of ethics by consumerism demands too much, too late. Firstl...
Via an autoethnography of internationalisation, the article highlights the ethical dilemmas transnational scholars face when universities fail to denationalise their organisational culture. Section one explains the pertinence and pitfalls of autoethnography — writing oneself into existence over against a context experienced as domination — for gras...
This book presents the first sustained articulation of a Foucauldian œuvre. It situates Foucault’s critique within the tradition of Kant’s call for a philosophical archaeology of reason; in parallel, it demonstrates the priority in Foucault’s thought of Nietzsche over Heidegger and the framing of reason against an ontology of power.

Despite the successes of identity politics as the main thorn in the side of liberalism, this article suggests they share the same political morality in which the subject grounds politics. This kinship results from a common view of freedom, namely, as something exercised by the subject either a priori or a posteriori to social interaction. With John...
This article claims that, in heeding Kant’s call for a philosophical archæology of reason that is framed against Nietzsche’s ontological priority of power, it is possible to speak of a Foucauldian œuvre called critical history. Based on this method, Foucault excavates the domains of thought through which we experience ourselves and which limit who...
Purpose
There is a common misperception that Michel Foucault either had nothing constructive to contribute to the relationship between the subject and the other, or that at best he portrayed intersubjective relations as riddled with power that tends to domination and subjection. This paper aims to counter such a fallacy.
