54 | Expropriating the Expropriators w/ Dr. Jacob Blumenfeld

from What's Left of Philosophy · host Lillian Cicerchia, Owen Glyn-Williams, Gil Morejón, and William Paris

In this episode we talk with Jacob Blumenfeld about the concept of property in German Idealism. As it turns out, Kant, Fichte, and Hegel each had a pretty different idea of property than their Anglo counterparts who were out there apologizing for private property as a natural right and capitalism as freedom. Some might even say that socialism is what completes the system of German Idealism. They might also say that Fichte is totally bonkers. In either case, the Germans are both way cooler and way weirder than you know.leftofphilosophy.com | @leftofphilReferences:Jacob Blumenfeld, The Property Relation: Freedom, Right, and Recognition in Kant, Fichte, and Hegel (forthcoming)Jacob's Academia page: https://uni-oldenburg.academia.edu/JacobBlumenfeldMusic: Vintage Memories by Schematist | schematist.bandcamp.com
