In this year’s public seminar series Revolution 13/13, Professor Bernard E. Harcourt and his interlocutors are exploring the contributions of “worldly” or revolutionary philosophers to critical theory and praxis–to the radical transformation of society. In his talk, Professor Harcourt will tie this ongoing conversation to his research on the importance of cooperation for a just society.
