Reviews
Critique of Journalistic Reason offers a provocative reframing of modern European thought, expanding and redirecting Foucault's insight into the emergence of 'today' as a post-Kantian philosophical problem.---Peter Fenves, Northwestern University, This is a fascinating and provocative book, powerfully argued, exegetically adroit, and profoundly suggestive in its implications. Vandeputte offers a series of extraordinarily fine-grained, original, and subtle readings that brilliantly demonstrate how philosophy's ambivalence about journalism expresses philosophy's own uneasy relation toward its temporal and historical constitution. It makes us think anew about the 'new' and the 'news' and about 'thinking' itself.---Rebecca Comay, University of Toronto,
