reviewed Reckless Mind: Intellectuals in Politics on October 06, 2010 Reckless Mind
Ever since Plato went to Syracuse, philosophers have been tantalized by the prospect of turning tyrants from the dark side. Their track record in this has been abysmal. This loosely is Lilla's theme in this collection of short pieces, most of which were written originally for the New York Review of Books.
RECKLESS MIND is particularly fun because it treats prominent personalities in 20th century thought (Heidegger, Foucalt, Benjamin, Derrida and more) and not gently. Lilla's wit is razor sharp and his prose is uncommonly clear. His premise that irresponsible philosophizing often leads to authoritarian tendencies is sobering and remains relevant today.
