Response to What?
[edit]The current third paragraph of the Philosophy § would imply that Kojeve responded to Fukiyama which is absurd. Lycurgus 22:11, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
oldest entry
[edit]In Dictionnnaire des Philosophes (ed. Denis Huisman, PUF, Paris 1984, p1442) it is stated that Kojève died in Paris. What is your source for Brussels? Leofischer
I'm not familiar about Kojeve, but how about re-writing the Philosophy section into sub section for clarification? As well as stating the sources if needed be quoting Kojeve himself. --195.68.200.21 14:05, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
Philosophy
[edit]I think the section "Philosophy" on the main page needs to be expanded. If I understand Kojeve correctly what comes to an end with the Revolution/Napoleon/Hegel (RNH) is the struggle for an adequate theory. It is precisely at this historical (RNH) point that adequacy arrives both speculatively in Hegel and practically in the ideals of the French Revolution/Napoleon. Now, the need for violent struggle is not at an end at this point. These ideals must be brought to all parts of the world. This process is often violent but also this occurs at the same time 'technically' through the syncing up of economies and laws that is also part of the process of globalization.These struggles need to happen but they do not change the 'truth' arrived at by RNH. Thus our post-history (i.e., post-RNH) that we are today immersed in must indeed be often violent. It is only with the arrival of the Universal Homogenous State that violence stops. It stops because the Revolutionary/Napoleonic Ideals reign everywhere and Hegelianism is everywhere the final form of philosophy. Joe Pomonomo2003 01:12, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
yours is something of a summary. I think it would be a contribution if you include direct citation from the works and words of Kojeve along with any summary of this or that aspect of his views. interpretations we have already. we need more interpretations with adequate citation. for example, which statements and works of his are you referring to in your summary?

I'm editing the last sentence of the first paragraph here - the 'more nuanced' bit isn't explicitly supported by the quote referenced and is also a break with NPOV standards. 71.56.140.116 (talk) 00:46, 8 October 2014 (UTC)
Old Mole??
[edit]"There is speculation that he died in shock at seeing this thesis overturned by the triumphant return of the Old Mole in May of that year in factories and cities all over Europe." -- Removing this sentence added 19 January 2007 by 86.144.88.165 . Odd / incomprehensible / probable vandalism, and at any rate, un-cited. -- 201.50.251.197 23:17, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
- This is presumably a reference to a graffito written in Paris in May 1968: "The Old Mole of history seems to be splendidly undermining the Sorbonne. (telegram from Marx, 13 May 1968)". Yohan euan o4 (talk) 01:41, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

not a Marxist
[edit]Although Kojeve's ideas would be considered out of place among much of Marxist theory I think this should be reconsidered. Kolakowski is cited (what exactly does this say?) but as we all know he had an anti-Marxist agenda (see the second citation on his page) and was a poor judge of Marxist ideas. The 1980 Cornell University Press edition (originally translated/written in 1969) of the 'Introduction to the Reading of Hegel' states on the blurb that Kojeve was a 'Marxist political philosopher', and Allan Bloom, in the introduction, also identifies him as a 'Marxist', albeit an idiosyncratic one.

Le Concept, le temps et le discours
[edit]It's my understanding that this has finally been translated, and will be issued sometime before the end of the year. The last paragraph in "Philosophy" will soon have to be (slightly) reworded. --Bateau (talk) 19:40, 7 October 2013 (UTC)

Kojeve's biography is too short.

- Where was he born?
- When (if at all) did he emigrate from Russia / Soviet Union?
- When did he reach France?
- What did he do / where was he during WW2?
