My intellectual biography of Jürgen Habermas as a public intellectual just came out. I had planned on sending him a copy, but it was not to be. At least I got to discuss my ideas with him during a magical visit to his home in Starnberg in June 2024 cup.columbia.edu/book/jurgen-ha…

Congrats to Teresa Bejan: “ An incisive account of how equality transformed from an abstract ideal into a concrete social and political vision, thanks to seventeenth-century English dissidents like the Levellers and the political philosophers they inspired.” hup.harvard.edu/books/97806742…

@tmbejan Wow! Can't wait. I've been working a lot on Kojeve's book on law, and the "first among equals" concept is important to him (he thinks equality is originally an aristocratic concept)

I have an essay in the @chronicle today: The Campus Civility Collapse. I draw on @tmbejan's work to explain what happened in 2023 & suggest a new policy approach: "The timeless insight that emerges from Bejan’s analysis is that no community can be all things to all people..." 1/2
