InterPhil: PUB: War and Philosophy
__ Call for Publications Theme: War and Philosophy Publication: Journal of Continental Philosophy Date: Special Issue Deadline: 28.4.2023 __ The Journal of Continental Philosophy is now accepting submissions on the topic “War and Philosophy.” “What is a state of war? What is a civil war? And if the death penalty is abolished within a country in peacetime, what is going to define the enemy, the public enemy, as Rousseau says, and wartime? External war and civil war? I leave in reserve here what stands at the heart of the problem: not only the definition of the exception, of the state of exception, but of war and the state of war.” (Jacques Derrida, The Death Penalty, Vol. I, pp. 125–6) “What is a state of war?” The phrase suggests at least two things: a condition of war, or a state which wars. War is defined in statutes, conventions, constitutions. Just as Derrida’s meditations on the death penalty situate it at the centre of philosophy, so war might occupy a central role in understanding contemporary societies and life. What is it? Where is it? How does it constitute a state? How do philosophy and art respond to this condition? Contributions addressing these questions are welcome: scholarly articles (including translations), interviews, round table discussions, works of literature. Manuscripts should be no longer than 10,000 words (excluding footnotes).
