MULTITUDE OF BLOGS None of the PDFs are my own productions. I've collected them from web (e-mule, avax, libreremo, socialist bros, cross-x, gigapedia..) What I did was thematizing. This blog's project is to create an e-library for a Heideggerian philosophy and Bourdieuan sociology Φ market-created inequalities must be overthrown in order to close knowledge gap. this is an uprising, do ya punk?

Speaking Against Number: Heidegger, Language and the Politics of Calculation

Speaking Against Number: Heidegger, Language and the Politics of Calculation
(Taking on the Political)
by Stuart Elden

Elden should be applauded for writing with such sharp focus, while simultaneously never reducing the genuine complexity of Heidegger's thought. Elden is a careful scholar, who writes in a clear, accessible prose. He has identified all the important texts germane to his argument and provides a good rationale to the volume as proposed. -- Dr Laurence Hemming, Heythrop College, University of London I wholeheartedly recommend this book with its rich lode of expositions of Heidegger's texts on the political in its ancient, modern and postmodern manifestations. -- Professor Theodore Kisiel, Northern Illinois University Stuart Elden's Speaking Against Number takes full advantage of the most recent volumes of Heidegger's previously unpublished lectures and manuscripts to develop a rich new approach to his political thought. The resulting book should be widely read, especially by everyone who thinks they already know all there is to know about this topic. -- Professor Robert Bernasconi, University of Memphis This volume shows wide-ranging and sound scholarship. Elden has done a superior job of weaving together many important strands of Heidegger's thought. -- Richard Polt Continental Philosophy Review Elden should be applauded for writing with such sharp focus, while simultaneously never reducing the genuine complexity of Heidegger's thought.
