Summary/Abstract |
In this essay, I offer a brief assessment of Nicholas Rengger’s engagement with arguments arising from the theological critique of modern politics and of his take on the relationship between faith and philosophy in modernity. Rengger’s scepticism, a peculiar mix of naturalism and philosophical idealism, combining insights from Oakeshott, Santayana and Augustine, did not cordon off faith but sought to work out its tensive relationship with practical forms of reasoning in modernity, a condition he described as a ‘hybrid’. Rengger’s critique of the hybridity of modernity rests on assumptions that expose some of the unresolved tensions of his anti-Pelagian scepticism.

Summary/Abstract |
I was given the opportunity to read this article because of my history with naval aviation. As I read it, I I was reminded of the CNO’s “Read, Write, Fight” guidance (June 2016 Proceedings). I’m aware the Commandant has given similar guidance to his Marines. I don’t know all the ins and outs with respect to Major Lippert’s suggestions, but we all should respect him for writing. I will be following the discussion it will generate.

Summary/Abstract |
Recent debates on biopolitics have focused on negative and positive interpretations of "life" that is the object of biopolitical apparatuses. Agamben examines the "bare life" that is produced by the sovereign ban, Negri and Hardt speak on the contrary of emancipatory biopolitical production, while Derrida and Esposito study (auto-)immunitary reactions that constitute living beings. The aim of this article is to examine a concrete case that permits to evaluate the explanatory power of these positions. The test case pertains to the recent amendment of the Finnish law on the medical use of human organs, tissues, and cells. It shows very clearly how phenomena that conventionally constitute the basis of proper, personal existence, namely the biological body and death, are not natural phenomena anymore, insofar as they are delimited by biopolitical decisions, that also redefine social relations in a radical manner.

Summary/Abstract |
In the broad context of intergenerational justice, this paper is an effort towards developing a theory of an ethics of life. My thesis is that that continuity of life is the foundation for an ethics of life. The fundamental question associated with the ethics of life is, ‘What is best for life.’ Following brief discussions about life and the long-term continuity challenges life will face as the sun begins to die, three legs of a triad for an ethics of life will be proposed and explicated.
