"Ambitious and deeply considered, The Political Logic of Experience dives head-first into some of the most intractable puzzles of phenomenology. The book is significant and welcome in its promise to link strains of thought and scholarship--the socio-political and the transcendental--that are too often cordoned off into separate realms."--Gayle Salamon, author of The Life and Death of Latisha King: A Critical Phenomenology of Transphobia The Political Logic of Experience argues that experience and phenomenology are essentially political, with profound implications for our understanding of subje...
"Ambitious and deeply considered, The Political Logic of Experience dives head-first into some of the most intractable puzzles of phenomenology. The book is significant and welcome in its promise to link strains of thought and scholarship--the socio-political and the transcendental--that are too often cordoned off into separate realms."--Gayle Salamon, author of The Life and Death of Latisha King: A Critical Phenomenology of Transphobia The Political Logic of Experience argues that experience and phenomenology are essentially political, with profound implications for our understanding of subjectivity, epistemology, experience, the phenomenological method, and politics. Drawing on work from across the phenomenological tradition, it develops an account of expression as the internal relationship uniting knowing, being, and doing with both transcendental conditions and empirical phenomena. This expressive unification generates subjectivity as an expression of particular communities and subjects as an expression of subjectivity. Subjectivity and experience are therefore both revealed to be inherently political prior to their expression in particular subjects. In clarifying the political nature of experience and the constitution of subjectivity, the book puts the work of critical phenomenology in dialogue with transcendental phenomenology to reveal the need for a phenomenological politics: a field tasked with explaining the expressive, co-constitutive, and necessarily political relationships between subjects and their communities. It is only through such a phenomenological politics that we can properly make sense of the epistemological, ontological, and practical significance of issues like racism and sexism, problems that concern our very experience of the world. The book reveals phenomenology to be both essentially political and politically essential, as it emerges within particular communities and shapes and transforms how individuals within those communities experience the world. Touching on issues of transcendental phenomenology, political strategy, historical interpretation and inter-disciplinary phenomenological method, the book argues for foundational claims pertaining to phenomenology, politics, and social criticism that will be of interest to those working in philosophy, gender studies, race, queer theory, transcendental and applied phenomenology, and beyond. Neal DeRoo is Professor of Philosophy and Canada Research Chair in Phenomenology and Philosophy of Religion at the King's University, Edmonton. He is the author of Futurity in Phenomenology: Promise and Method in Husserl, Levinas and Derrida.
