Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract.Michel Foucault's late turn to ethics for an understanding of subject self-constitution is explored in relation to the problematic of humanism. Foucault's reconsideration of Immanuel Kant's Enlightenment-grounded legacy constitutes, it is argued, a significant resource for thinking about new ways to approach cultural practices that have as their aim a reconstitution of identity outside dominant structures of scientific and legal knowledge. This essay explores how Foucault's earlier anti-humanist misgivings give way to a more ethical-pragmatic conception of humanism in relation to notions of freedom, rights and equality. The insights of pragmatism—particularly those of John Dewey—are employed as a means by which to situate what is called here the “pragmatic humanism” of the later Foucault. Résumé.Le tour en retard de Michel Foucault à l'éthique pour une compréhension d'individu-constitution soumise est exploré parrapport au problématique de l'humanisme. La reconsidération de Foucault du legs d'Immanuel Kant publiant hors de l'éclaircissement constitue, il est discutée, une ressource importante pour penser à de nouvelles manières d'approcher les pratiques culturelles qui ont en tant que leur but une reconstitution des structures dominantes d'extérieur d'identité de la connaissance scientifique et légale. Explore comment des craintes plus tôt d'anti-humaniste de Foucault mènent à une conception moral-pragmatique d'humanisme par rapport aux notions de la liberté, des droites, et de l'égalité. Les perspicacités du pragmatisme—en particulier ceux de John Dewey—utilisé comme moyens par lesquels pour situer ce qui est s'appellent ici l'humanisme pragmatic du Foucault plus défunt.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
