I would like to take this opportunity to thank Carl Mitcham for his kind review of Post-Europe (2024), a book which is at the same time intimate to me and polemic to the current political situation. It is a small book which accompanies a much bigger book (368 pages) titled Machine and Sovereignty: For a Planetary Thinking (2024), one that is much harder (and certainly takes longer) to read because it partly details my interpretation of the history of modern political philosophy from Hobbes to Schmitt, and partly elaborating on an agenda based on my work in the past decade.
