I have a piece up at The New Republic that examines Joe Biden’s “handsiness” using concepts drawn from my book Creepiness.

The Stanford University Press blog has published a conversation between me and fellow Stanford author Martijn Konings, about our respective books on neoliberalism: Part 1, Part 2.

I just learned that I have been awarded a summer research grant by North Central College, to allow me to visit Agamben in Italy and interview him about his work. This will be really important for an eventual book project — and a cool opportunity to meet someone whose work has been a big part of my life for a long time now.

In the next few weeks, I am giving talks in two cities — one far-flung, the other closer to home. I will be visiting Prague for my Spring Break, where I will be participating in a roundtable on The Use of Bodies with Colby Dickinson and other luminaries on Wednesday, March 20. An event on Neoliberalism’s Demons is also planned for Tuesday, March 19.

Just in time for me to get over my jetlag, I will be traveling to the University of Dubuque in Iowa, to give a talk on Neoliberalism’s Demons on Thursday, March 28, under the auspices of the UD Scholar-Leader Honors Program and Charles C. Myers Library.

Over the next couple weeks, the good people at the An und für sich blog are holding an event on Neoliberalism’s Demons, which you can follow at this link. Thanks to Sean Capener for organizing it and to all the great contributors for participating!

UPDATE: The event has now drawn to a close. You can find a convenient reference for all the posts here.

I was a guest on the Magnificast, a left-wing Christian podcast. Audio is available here.

Tucker Carlson’s recent anti-capitalist monologue provided the occasion for my latest article in Slate, which builds on some ideas from the later portions of Neoliberalism’s Demons.

This one comes from my conversation with Anna Kornbluh at the Seminary Co-op in Chicago.

I gave a presentation for the Open University of the Left in Chicago on Saturday, December 15. Video, including a lengthy Q&A session, is available here.

I’m a little late posting this, but a couple weeks ago I did an interview with the great Doug Henwood for Left Business Observer. You can find audio here; scroll to November 29.
