Dansk forsker: Forskningsopholdet ville fremme min forskning og karriere. Alligevel takker jeg nej til Trumps USA Som hvid mand med papirerne i orden er risikoen ved indrejse til USA begrænset for mig. Alligevel tager jeg ikke imod legatet til et forskningsophold i landet.

So I wrote about why I declined my Fulbright grant and canceled my research stay at NYU.

Foucault might have had a few things to add about the close relationship between pastoral and sovereign power

I have the entries on Recht, Gerechtigkeit, ReprΓ€sentation and Staat und SouverΓ€nitΓ€t, that I have once scanned myself. I would be very interested in the pdfs of the other volumes if you have them?

@mhjessen.bsky.social analyzes early modern ideas of popular sovereignty and the corresponding fear of factions. Morten Haugaard Jeppesen then asks whether Rousseau was a populist and what it means to ask this question in intellectual history. 3/7

Photo of the cover of Slagmark’s special issue on "The People, Democracy, and Populism." The cover contains an image of a crowd storming a palace. The picture is titled "The Storming of the Winter Palace" and is from a 1920 reenactment of the storming of the Winter Palace that occurred during the October Revolution in 1917 and was, from 1922 and onwards, presented as an image of the original events. It illustrates both the victory of popular sovereignty over medieval privilege and the virtual and performative aspects of the people and popular sovereignty so central to modern politics.

Slagmark #85: "The People, Democracy, and Populism," which I co-edited, is now available open access (tidsskrift.dk/slagmark/iss...).

It contains an introduction, 10 articles, and an enquete, exploring these three concepts, their historical development, and contemporary relevance. 1/7

While most of Danish academia rejected all things Marx, and Marxism @sorenmau.bsky.social @esbenboegh.bsky.social @mhjessen.bsky.social @nicolaivoneggers.bsky.social @magnusz.bsky.social and many others, were doing really cool things in Γ…rhus.
