Hegel’s Treatment of the Free Will Problem: a Conceptual Oversight and
Its Implications for Legal Theory (pages 155-174)
- Authors: Robert Donoghue
  Abstract: Robert Donoghue ABSTRACT: G.W.F Hegel offers a thorough, complex, and unique theory of free will in the Philosophy of Right. In what follows, I argue that Hegel’s conceptualization of free will makes the mistake of collapsing the possibility of organic freedom (the ability to act freely of causal determination) into the potential for moral freedom …

- Authors: Janelle Pötzsch

An Inhuman God for Our Inhuman Times: Death in Heidegger’s Being and
Time and Jesus’s Agony in the Garden (pages 211-232)
- Authors: Rajesh Sampath
  Abstract: Rajesh Sampath ABSTRACT: This paper attempts a careful reading of chapter I of Division Two, particularly section 53, on death in Heidegger’s Being and Time (1927). Our aim is to deconstruct some of Heidegger’s assumptions while imagining the margins of his text that could warrant a comparison and contrast with the biblical theological material of …

The Cogito Paradox (pages 7-43)
- Authors: Arnold Cusmariu
  Abstract: Arnold Cusmariu ABSTRACT: The Cogito formulation in Discourse on Method attributes properties to one conceptual category that belong to another. Correcting the error ends up defeating Descartes’ response to skepticism. His own creation, the Evil Genius, is to blame. Download PDF

Looking for Black Swans: Critical Elimination and History (pages 45-77)
- Authors: Michael F. Duggan
  Abstract: Michael F. Duggan ABSTRACT: This article examines the basis for testing historical claims and proffers the observation that the historical method is akin to the scientific method in that it utilizes critical elimination rather than justification. Building on the critical rationalism of Karl Popper – and specifically the deductive component of the scientific method called …

Perfect Happiness (pages 89-116)
- Authors: Daniel Rönnedal
  Abstract: Daniel Rönnedal ABSTRACT: In this paper, I will develop a new theory of the nature of happiness, or “perfect happiness.” I will examine what perfect happiness is and what it is not and I will try to answer some fundamental questions about this property. According to the theory, which I shall call “the fulfillment theory,” …

The Question as to Why We Have to Live Out the Agony of Our Epoch and its
Fundamental Un-Answerability: A Reading of the Preface to the 1967 Edition
of Klossowski’s’ Original 1947 Sade My Neighbor (pages 117-138)
- Authors: Rajesh Sampath
  Abstract: Rajesh Sampath ABSTRACT: This paper excavates certain impulses that are buried in Pierre Klossowski’s 1968 edition of his original 1947 work, Sade My Neighbor. We argue that the self-suffocating nature of our historical present reveals the problem of an epochal threshold: in which twenty-first century democracy itself is threatened with death and violence in delusional …
