My latest contribution to the Hannah Arendt Center's "Quote of the Week" feature is now live. In it, I discuss Arendt's perspective on the "crisis of the university system" in her work *On Violence* (1969/70) and how and why it remains relevant today.

It's been quite the saga getting to this release date, but @Iritdekel and Esra Ozyurek have now published this very important discussion of the recent transformations in discourses about antisemitism and fighting antisemitism in Germany. Important work!

The volume Marcia Morgan and Megan Craig put together in honor of the philosophical life and work of our teacher Dick Bernstein now available in paperback! Surely you know of someone or some institution who would benefit from a copy?

Yes, Gillum's loss to the really despicable DeSantos is a bitter disappointment. But this is hugely consequential development. And not the only one of the night.
