Castoriadis Blog (CB)

http://castoriadis.blogspot.com/

Members of the Nordic Summer University’s Study Group #8 called “Creation, Rationality and Autonomy” started CB in 2006 as an “experiment in communication and joint research” (all excerpts are from the blog’s main page). CB aims at facilitating discussions on the philosophy and political thought of Cornelius Castoriadis. “Castoriadis-related comments are welcome: book reviews, conference notices, thoughts from your ongoing work”, thus making use of the opportunities that online communication can offer: “The advantage with blogging is that we do not have to wait for the next conference to discuss our ongoing work. The floor is yours.”
