作品

  • 由他的耶鲁学位论文发展而成的著作:借助萨特对自欺的分析,戈登把反黑人种族主义描述为对人类存在之暧昧性的逃避,它把一些人仅仅当作身体,并否认他们作为人的地位。

  • 对非洲裔思想中存在问题的导论——人是什么、是谁,自由与解放——通过对道格拉斯、杜波依斯、法农等人的解读:非洲裔哲学是面对奴隶制、殖民主义和种族主义的人类存在的哲学。

立场

Gordon is on the map as the leading representative of Africana existential philosophy. In Bad Faith and Antiblack Racism (1995) he took up Sartre’s concept of bad faith – the attempt to flee one’s own freedom by treating oneself or others as things – and argued that antiblack racism is a form of it: it reduces Black people to their bodies, treats their presence as a problem, and lets the racist evade responsibility by appealing to a supposed nature. Fanon became his main interlocutor, from Fanon and the Crisis of European Man (1995) to What Fanon Said (2015): Gordon reads Fanon not only as a theorist of colonialism but as a philosopher of the human who asks what it means to be human when one is denied humanity. In Existentia Africana (2000) he described Africana philosophy as concerned with three themes – what it is to be human, freedom and liberation, and a critique of reason itself – in readings of Douglass, Du Bois, Fanon and others. In Disciplinary Decadence (2006) he criticised disciplines that treat their own methods as absolute and so lose sight of the reality they study. Paul C. Taylor’s SEP entry on contemporary Africana philosophy discusses his definition of the field at length, and with Paget Henry and others he built the Caribbean Philosophical Association into a forum for philosophy of the Global South. His later books include Freedom, Justice, and Decolonization (2021) and Fear of Black Consciousness (2022).
