What World Is This? - A Pandemic...

Judith Butler

The pandemic compels us to ask fundamental questions about our place in the world: the many ways humans rely on one another, how we vitally and sometimes fatally breathe the same air, share the surfaces of the earth, and exist in proximity to other porous creatures in order to live in a social world. What we require to live can also imperil our lives. How do we think from, and about, this common bind? 
 
 
 
Judith Butler shows how COVID-19 and all its consequences—political, social, ecological, economic—have challenged us to reconsider the sense of the world that such disasters bring about. Drawing on the work of Max Scheler, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, and critical feminist phenomenology, Butler illuminates the conditions in which we seek to make sense of our disorientation, precarity, and social bonds. What World Is This? offers a new account of interdependency in which touching and breathing, capacities that amid a viral outbreak can threaten life itself, challenge the boundaries of the body and selfhood. Criticizing notions of unlimited personal liberty and the killing forces of racism, sexism, and classism, this book suggests that the pandemic illuminates the potential of shared vulnerabilities as well as the injustice of pervasive inequalities.

The Critique of Pure Reason

Immanuel Kant

The Critique of Pure Reason is a philosophical work written by Immanuel Kant, published in 1781. The book is divided into two main parts: the first part deals with what Kant calls "Transcendental Aesthetic," which is concerned with the nature of space and time and the way in which our minds perceive them. The second part deals with what Kant calls "Transcendental Logic," which is concerned with the nature of our understanding and how we reason about the world.
In the Critique of Pure Reason, Kant aims to investigate the limits and conditions of knowledge, particularly in the context of metaphysics. He argues that all knowledge must be based on experience, but that our understanding is not limited to the information that we can gain through our senses. Rather, he posits that we have certain innate concepts and categories that allow us to make sense of the world and that shape our perception and understanding of reality.
Kant's approach to metaphysics is known as transcendental idealism, which holds that the world as it appears to us is not necessarily the same as it is in itself. He argues that we can only know the world as it appears to us, not as it is in itself, and that our knowledge is necessarily limited by the nature of our minds and our perception.
Overall, the Critique of Pure Reason is a complex and influential work that has had a profound impact on philosophy, particularly in the fields of epistemology and metaphysics. It is considered a foundational text of modern philosophy and is still widely studied and debated today.
