Israeli philosopher Omri Boehm is the author of Radical Universalism, a book that goes beyond offering a new interpretation of universalism: it revolutionizes our fundamental understanding of what the term means and explains why it is essential to preserve the struggle for emancipation. To do so, Boehm turns to a rereading of Kant and to his often misunderstood recovery of the anti-authoritarian monotheism of the Jewish prophets, which culminates in the idea that “no man has the right to obey,” neither God nor the State. Boehm, also the author of a binational framework for Israel and Palestine in Haifa Republic, argues that radical emancipation, if sustained, can make possible a commitment to humanity over identity-based positions.

Although Albania is now becoming a tourist destination, it continues to be the most closed of the former Communist countries in eastern Europe. The Albanian philosopher Lea Ypi tells the story of her childhood in the country in Free, which has won awards including the Royal Society of Literature’s Ondaatje Prize and the Slightly Foxed First Biography Prize. Fronteras de clase is a compilation of three political essays about inequality, migration and citizenship; while her most recent work, Indignity, once again weaves together family and political history, reconstructing the life of her grandfather through secret police archives, in a story about individual and collective dignity in contexts of repression and transition. She talks to Marianne Ponsford.
