Very happy to have contributed this little think piece for the wonderful JHI forum on political economy in intellectual history!

Watched ‘after the hunt’. Was worth it for these.

New article, long in the making. On Alexander von Humboldt’s critique of natural-historical concepts of race and his diagnosis of a politics of racialised difference leveraged in the colonies. I try to say: there are good reasons to look beyond Kant! doi.org/10.1177/0191...

BREAKING NEWS 📕🚨 We are happy and proud to announce the publication of an edited anthology titled Danish Marxism: Past, Present, Future (Problema, 2025). The book celebrates 10 years of organising by bringing 6 reflective pieces together with CfPs and abstracts from all our conferences.

Do you or anyone you know work on African philosophy? A job (!) has come up in my department. Happy to talk about it if you are curious. It’s a lovely place to work with a pretty special BA in Global and Comparative Philosophy. Please share widely!

Are you dying to know if Hegel hated ersatz coffee? Then boy do I have the piece for you. Very happy to be part of the JHI blog forum on political economy in intellectual history!

Officially marking the first of many pieces in the Blog's forum "The Return of Political Economy in Intellectual History," Mikkel Flohr offers a novel reading of Marx's historical materialism for a "political economy of ideas." @mflohr.bsky.social

The Netherlands is a lovely place! The cities are charming and walkable, the people friendly and honest, the food is often sufficient for typical calorific needs.

Some great pieces in the new RP! I recently joined the editorial collective and look forward to working on the next issue. Long live independent open access journals and philosophy that is more than merely academic!

Just some random (Marxist (Obviously)) thoughts about the whole tariffs thing: A lot of people seem to be approaching this as if capitalism is generally a harmonious happy system in which (pace Ricardo) if trade is just left alone then everyone benefits because the ‘economic’ logic bears out.

No hygge and no deadline extensions!

❗🚨KEYNOTE ANNOUNCEMENT🚨❗ All the rumors are true! Our first keynote speaker for this year's conference is none other than M.E.O’Brien😍 O'Brien writes and speaks on capitalism, gender freedom and family abolition!🔥

Realized I should mention this here—the collection of Lise Vogel’s essays I’ve been working on for the past two years. Lots of hard to find & out of print stuff, it tells the story of 50 years of Marxism & Feminism. “The Contested Domain” out this November w/ Pluto! www.amazon.com/Contested-Do...

Kingston University plans to abolish the CRMEP. Don’t let them. Please read this open letter from current students and support their efforts whichever way you can! www.e-flux.com/notes/658933... 1/3

Sad to learn that Anson Rabinbach has passed away. His work In the Shadow of Catastrophe and contributions on fascism and anti-fascism (such as his essay on The Brown Book, below) have left an indelible mark on me over the years.

Intention for 2025 in stamps.

More Danish Marxism: On Sunday, December 22, 1974, an action began in the department store Magasin, where a so-called Santa Claus army handed out free gifts from the store's goods to visitors. (1/2)

  I still can’t believe we made it: The recent Oxford Handbook to Nineteenth-Century Women Philosophers in the German Tradition presents such solid scholarship from the 30 contributors. (Somewhat) color-synchronized with Women Philosophers in the Nineteenth Century.   #philsky #artsky #feminism

Clearing my desk at the end of the semester. Not metaphorically.

I was preparing to pitch an op-ed on the nationwide protests calling for President Yoon's resignation, aiming to provide global context amid the limited international coverage. Given the urgency, I’m sharing it now. I didn’t expect events to escalate this quickly. #SouthKorea #Democracy

I'm at the National Assembly building. The army is here. And I just saw two soldiers in fatigues getting pushed around by belligerent ajusshis. and they looked legit scared.

New crossover nightmare genre: it’s a philosophy class but also a competitive cooking show. For anyone wondering, lecturing on Hegel’s concept of freedom while making fried chicken is hard.

Short time lurker, first time poster: an introduction seems appropriate. Hi! I’m a Danish philosopher and intellectual historian living in Rotterdam. I work mostly on German philosophy, critical theory, and the historiography of philosophy. Danish Marxism adjacent. Scrupulous note taker.
