This month, guest host Jess Feldman discusses Revisiting “On Violence”: Political Power and Non-violent Struggle with Rose Owen, who will be among the speakers at our annual spring conference on April 24th.
Jess Feldman is the Klemens von Klemperer Postdoctoral Fellow at the Hannah Arendt Center for Politics and Humanities at Bard College. They hold an M.A. and a Ph.D. in Political Science from Brown University and a B.A. in Economics from Amherst College. Jess's research focuses on ideas of collective action in the history of political thought. Jess's book manuscript, Democracy and the General-Strike Tradition, draws on 20th-century political thought, contemporary democratic theory, and African-American political thought to develop an account of how the general strike has shaped the democratic imaginary. Jess's work on W.E.B. Du Bois's Black Reconstruction has been published in Political Theory, and an essay on Hannah Arendt's political theory won the Best Paper Award (2024) from the Foundations of Political Theory section of the American Political Science Association.
Rose A. Owen is a Visiting Assistant Professor in the Department of Political Science at SUNY Purchase. Before Purchase, Rose was the Postdoctoral Fellow in Political Theory at The New School for Social Research. Her first book, Feminist Violence, explores how militant feminists transformed the concept of violence during the second wave. She has published articles in Political Theory and New Political Science, and she recently received the Okin-Young Award for best article in Feminist Political Theory.
For Love of the World, every fourth Tuesday from 6-6:30 pm on Radio Kingston, is your portal to the bold ideas and respectful, deep conversations about contemporary issues that we’re having regularly at the Hannah Arendt Center at Bard College. Join us each month as we delve into the work of one of the most influential thinkers of the 20th century, Hannah Arendt, with renowned scholars and public intellectuals, and exemplify what it means to have a conversation of patient humility, in the Arendtian tradition.
