The fantasy of the birth of concepts in Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason
by Stella Sandford / RP 179 (May/Jun 2013) / Article
In the second edition of the Critique of Pure Reason, at the end of the transcendental deduction of the categories, Kant distinguishes the doctrine of transcendental idealism from competing theories of knowledge – or, more specifically, theories of the relation between concepts and experience – by characterizing them in terms of various theories …

Sex: a transdisciplinary concept
From structure to rhizome: transdisciplinarity in French thought (1)
by Stella Sandford / RP 165 (Jan/Feb 2011) / Article, Dossier, From structure to rhizome: transdisciplinarity in French thought
What is sex? Some feminists have harboured suspicions about this form of question, given its philosophical (or ‘metaphysical’1) pedigree. But philosophy no longer has the disciplinary monopoly on it.
