A precarious dialogue
Dossier: The Greek Symptom: Debt, Crisis and the Crisis of the Leftby Maria Kakogianni and Jacques Rancière / RP 181 (Sept/Oct 2013) / Dossier, Interview, The Greek Symptom
Maria Kakogianni It seems to me that we are in an intermediary situation today. The period of the great renunciation of the revolutionary past, and of the ‘end of History’, seems to be giving way to a new sequence of popular struggles (the Arab Spring, Los Indignados, Occupy Wall Street, etc.). But, within this new sequence, …

Claire Fontaine
Giving shape to painful thingsby Claire Fontaine, Andrew Culp and Ricky Crano / RP 175 (Sep/Oct 2012) / Interview
Parisian artist Claire Fontaine is a fraud, a forgery, her name casually lifted from a generic brand of school notebooks, her existence only present in the art that bears her signature. She was first brought to life in 2004 by Fulvia Carnevale and James Thornhill. She resides now in the neon gas, the …

Noam Chomsky
Freedom and powerby Noam Chomsky and Peter Hallward / RP 172 (Mar/Apr 2012) / Interview
Peter Hallward I’d like to start by asking you about some of your basic philosophical principles, starting with your understanding of human freedom and creativity. In the modern European tradition I’m most familiar with, freedom is a dominant philosophical theme from Descartes through Rousseau to Kant. With Kant we have an affirmation …

Jeff Wall

Jean Oury
The hospital is illby Jean Oury, Mauricio Novello and David Reggio / RP 143 (May/Jun 2007) / Interview
David Reggio Binswanger asserted that man was in the situation of psychiatry if psychiatry was within the situation of man. But it seems that this equation has become corrupted. In its current form, psychiatry has become a very complex and deterministic pursuit. At the same time, a moralism has proliferated that has eclipsed its ethic. …

Jean Laplanche
The other within - Rethinking psychoanalysisby Jean Laplanche, Peter Osborne and John Fletcher / RP 102 (Jul/Aug 2000) / Interview
Jean Laplanche is the most original and philosophically informed psychoanalytic theorist of his day. Setting out from a critical reconstruction of Freudʼs terminology, he has developed a systematic rethinking of psychoanalytic metapsychology under the heading of a ʻgeneral theory of seductionʼ. Still best known in Britain for his early joint work with Pontalis – ʻFantasy …

Arthur C. Danto
Art and analysisby Arthur C. Danto and Peter Osborne / RP 090 (Jul/Aug 1998) / Interview
RP: Your philosophical work appears to be made up of two fairly distinct strands: what one might call a mainstream analytical strand and a more unconventional aesthetic strand. The second strand is dissident, first because itʼs about aesthetics – it takes art seriously, philosophically – and second because itʼs broadly Hegelian in inspiration. Historically, analytical …

Stuart Hall
Culture and Powerby Stuart Hall, Lynne Segal and Peter Osborne / RP 086 (Nov/Dec 1997) / Interview
RP: How would you describe the current state of cultural studies in Britain in relation to its past?
Hall: Itʼs a question of how far back you want to go, because everybody has a narrative about this and everybodyʼs narrative is different. There was certainly something distinctive about the founding moment in the 1960s, but …
