Abstract: Karl Jaspers coined the term the “axial period” to refer to what he saw as the simultaneous development in several different and separate societies-China, India, Iran, Israel, Greece-of “a new departure within mankind.” What he meant has been characterized as “a kind of critical, reflective questioning of the actual and a new vision of what lies beyond.” While it is true that people in each of these separate cultures began to develop new ways of talking about the cosmos, ethics, and community, Jaspers’s approach and description of these phenomena were, I shall argue, highly defective. This has led to serious misunderstandings of what was involved.

As head of state he was lenient with the large-scale burning of the Amazon forest, with the loggers, and with the intrusion of mining and gold mining, including…

Discriminating Data: Correlation, Neighborhoods, and the New Politics of Recognition. Wendy Hui Kyong Chun (mathematical illustrations by Alex Barnett). MIT Press. 2021.
Going back a couple of decades, there was a fair amount of discussion of ‘the digital divide’. Uneven access to networked computers meant that a line was drawn between those who were able to switch-on and those who were not. At the time there was a pressing concern about the disadvantages of a lack of access. With the massive escalation of connectivity since, the notion…
