Very pleased to have contributed to this swell volume on fascism, then and now

I had been working on several parts of this essay when Habermas died. Should be of interest to @mattpolprof.bsky.social readers — his work on postmodern conservatism and Michael Brooks runs through it. www.erikhaines.org/p/philosophy...

Looking forward to listening to this chat by @mattpolprof.bsky.social & @benburgis.bsky.social. www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLEY...

My obituary for Habermas in @jacobinmag.bsky.social jacobin.com/2026/03/habe...

Anti-interventionists and economic populists on the Right who dreamed that Trump would favor their causes may not want to hear the truth. But the truth is that Trumpism is just a vulgar version of Bushism. ✍️ Michael Lind unherd.com/2026/03/the-...

I appreciate this long, detailed review of "The Political Theory of Liberal Socialism" by Conrad Hamilton tripleampersand.org/liberalism-i...

Just sent in my Habermas obituary to @jacobinmag.bsky.social but short story: he was a huge early influence and a commanding scholar. If ever I was disappointed by his takes its only because you expected a lot of Habermas. RIP

Sad news, indeed. My very first published article as a grad student was on Habermas, whose career took some fascinating turns. While I haven't always agreed with him, his work has never failed to stimulate my thinking. One of the greats.

He was a hero. His global philosophical legacy was to accede to the end of history, in various ways, with consequences that critical theory has not recovered from, and which also also affected and reflected liberal political and constitutional thought, to its detriment. apnews.com/article/juer...

RIP Jürgen Habermas

Not bad

After taking a mini month-in-half hiatus from #TheYoungIdealist Series I have returned with a fantastic new episode. I was honored to have an in-depth discussion with Dr. Sean McGrath on his forthcoming book on Carl Jung titled: The Soul of Nature: On the Unconscious & Related (1/4)

On March 23rd @benburgis.bsky.social and I will be presenting on our forthcoming G.A Cohen volume at York University in Toronto. We'll be joined by Dr. Christine Sypnowich and Dr. Lesley Jacobs.

This has to be one of the most weaksauce responses to any book Ive read; the rhetorical equivalent of the "I swear im not crying" meme. @lkatfield.bsky.social claremontreviewofbooks.com/fury-road/

On March 24th I'll be giving a talk at my old progam at York in Toronto discussing post-PhD life. Will include some tough advice to grads.

My latest essay exchange with @footnotes2plato.substack.com which is partially inspired by @mattpolprof.bsky.social work on postmodern conservatism & the life/work of Michael Brooks. www.erikhaines.org/p/through-an...

My latest essay exchange with @footnotes2plato.substack.com - I would be curious to hear @mattpolprof.bsky.social or @benburgis.bsky.social thoughts on these essays at some point. www.erikhaines.org/p/can-the-re...
