Neil Macmaster, "War in the Mountains: Peasant Society and Counterinsurgency in Algeria, 1918-1958"
English | ISBN: 0198860218 | 2020 | 528 pages | PDF | 4 MB
The role of the peasantry during the Algerian War of Independence (1954-1962) has long been neglected by historians, in part because they have been viewed as a 'primitive' mass devoid of political consciousness. War in the Mountains: Peasant Society and Counterinsurgency in Algeria, 1918-1958 challenges this conventional understanding by tracing the ability of the peasant community to sustain an autonomous political culture through family, clan, and village assemblies.

Transcendental Phenomenology As Human Possibility: Husserl and Fink on the Phenomenologizing Subject
English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031229851 | 473 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 2 MB
This book focuses on Edmund Husserl's philosophical collaboration with Eugen Fink which took place in the early 1930s, and shows how their disagreement over the nature, origin, and aim of phenomenology led to a crucial divergence on the issue of who was engaging in phenomenology, and with what motivation. It provides a philosophical investigation of a key moment in the development of Husserl's late phenomenology. The author claims that Husserl's meta-phenomenological exploration of the theoretical and, importantly, practical underpinnings of the transcendental investigator leads him to affirm their humanity and, ultimately, to adopt an ethically charged ideal of "higher humanity" as telos of phenomenology.
