I am delighted, and honoured, to be one of the contributors to Contemporanea, a superb and inventive lexicon for our turbulent historical moment, edited by the brilliant philosophers Michael Marder and Giovanbattista Tusa, and published by the MIT Press. My entry addresses the urgency of 'Anamnesia'. Such a joy to be in the distinguished company of colleagues whose work I admire, among them, Slavoj Zizek, Tomás Saraceno, Mieke Bal, Anaïs Tondeur, Vandana Shiva, Roberto Esposito, Anita Chari, and the late Jean-Luc Nancy. @mitpress
