Flora Renz · Law’s searching for biological truth: For Women Scotland and the UK Supreme Court (2025)

Apropos of today’s news I just had a piece published in Radical Philosophy about the turn towards biological essentialism in law and policy. I’m arguing the SC decision in FWS and attempts to restrict disability welfare fundamentally come from the same place of wanting to limit state protections

Kanafani was neither born a Marxist, nor can his ideo-
logical turn as part of the Popular Front’s emergence be
adequately described as an ‘adoption’ of Marxism. The
necessity of an idea tends to precede its arrival: if the
former is adequately accounted for, the latter rarely ap-
pears a matter of pure choice.

Oscar Talbot · It’s all in the landing (2025)

You can find my review of Melyana Kay Lamb's 'Philosophical History of Police Power' in the new Radical Philosophy @radical-philosophy.bsky.social
It's a really interesting book, but I have some issues with the level of abstraction it takes towards police power.
