Is it time for an existentialist revival, yet? I hope it comes back in a pragmatist mode, one that pushes pragmatism to its Latourian limits. That is, a pragmatism that extends democratic procedure to things as well as people. Things have rights, too, and they assert those rights the way people do: resistance. Scientific experiment invites things to the table and allows them to negotiate with us. I enjoy wondering what an existentialism freed of idealist reductionism (both metaphysical & methodological) might look, sound, behave and feel like.
