Schelling's Practice of the Wild
Reconsiders the contemporary relevance of Schellings radical philosophical and religious ecology. The last two decades have seen a renaissance and reappraisal of Schellings remarkable body of philosophical work, moving beyond explications and historical study to begin thinking with and through Schelling, exploring and developing the fundamental issues at stake in his thought and their contemporary relevance. In this book, Jason M. Wirth seeks to engage Schellings work concerning the philosophical problem of the relationship of time and the imagination, calling this relationship Schellings practice of the wild. Focusing on the questions of nature, art, philosophical religion (mythology and revelation), and history, Wirth argues that at the heart of Schellings work is a radical philosophical and religious ecology. He develops this theme not only through close readings of Schellings texts, but also by bringing them into dialogue with thinkers as diverse as Deleuze, Nietzsche, Melville, Musil, and many others. The book also features the first appearance in English translation of Schellings famous letter to Eschenmayer regarding the Freedom essay.

In earlier times locks were made by blacksmiths or craftsmen of timber. Security systems consisted of soldiers or appointed guards, even geese played a part. As times changed and the industrial evolution took hold, security systems moved in to the world of mass production and the human resources being soldiers, police, private guards and their associates. The Second World War saw very large changes and developments in all sectors of the security industry and none more so than the electrical and the mechanical side of security. For further reference, the electrical and mechanical side of the security industry is known as technical security. The guards and police are referred to as human resources. As time moved on, and soldiers of the Second World War aged and left the private security industry, so too did the security industry change, skills, knowledge and experience, that had kept the security industry poised to handle any situation, so to speak is now accountable. However, it was also now a time to move on and the soldiers and technocrats after the Vietnam war era, took the technical side of the security industry to the forefront of today’s developments well in to the front of the space age, the very front. As the forefront of technologists proceeded to spread through the technical security, the human resources in security separated and headed in other directions, splintering on the way. By the late nineteen nineties in the private sector, crowd controllers, electro technology security, fence, gate, guards, locksmiths, and security door manufacturers and installers were worlds apart. Their experiences and developments had matured to such a high level that they were not compatible. As these developments were taking place, different parts of the industry developed associations and groups, mostly with good intentions and a desire to bring forth a more secure and workable industry. Different associations, groups, and other sorts of people also wanted power and, when the government of the day at the beginning of the new century sought to improve the security industry, they were met with resistance from a large range of players with high stakes to lose and a threat to life style and practices.

Who has access, and who is denied access, to food, and why? What are the consequences of food insecurity? What would it take for the food system to be just? Just Food: Philosophy, Justice and Food presents thirteen new philosophical essays that explore the causes and consequences of the inequities of our contemporary food system. It examines why 842 million people globally are unable to meet their dietary needs, and why food insecurity is not simply a matter of insufficient supply. The book looks at how food insecurity tracks other social injustices, covering topics such as race, gender and property, as well as food sovereignty, food deserts, and locavorism. The essays in this volume make an important and timely contribution to the wider philosophical debate around food distribution and justice.
