Free Read: New Journal ‘Chiasma’ Launches

Chiasma: A Site for Thought is a newly established journal that has just released their first issue. According to their mission statement,  Chiasma is concerned with “continental philosophy, social and political theory, literary criticism, media studies, and cultural studies” and “those genetic moments that displace theory from its history, without abandoning it to an auxiliary position between disciplines.”

Their first issue contains a new translation of François Laruelle’s “Deconstruction and Non-Philosophy.”

We’ve reproduced the table of contents below.
