    Society as a Code: Bentham and the Fabric of Order.Paola Rudan - 2016 - History of European Ideas 42 (1):39-54.
    SUMMARYThe essay argues that Jeremy Bentham played a major role in the transitional process between the eighteenth and the nineteenth centuries leading to the ‘discovery' or ‘invention of society' as an order, i.e., as an autonomous object of knowledge. By comparing Bentham's discourse with those developed by select protagonists of that transition, particularly Ferguson, Sieyès, and Mirabeau, it is shown how society emerges as the logical and historical space of a set of relationships that affects both the rationalisation and the (...)

    Il problema del codice: differenza, identità e riproduzione nell’età degli algoritmi.Paola Rudan - 2024 - Scienza and Politica. Per Una Storia Delle Dottrine 36 (70):65-81.
    Il saggio discute le critiche femministe del rapporto tra codice di programmazione e dominio maschile articolate da Sadie Plant in _Zeroes and Ones_ (1997) e da Catherine D’Ignazio e Lauren F. Klein in _Data Feminism_ (2020) mettendole in relazione al passaggio storico e politico di affermazione del programma neoliberale, nella cui cornice le politiche dell’identità e la valorizzazione capitalistica delle differenze riconfigurano l’universalismo politico moderno. Per dare conto di questo passaggio e della funzione degli algoritmi come operatori societari, verranno poi (...)

    Politica dell’algoritmo: tecnologie, poteri, teorie.Isabella Consolati & Paola Rudan - 2024 - Scienza and Politica. Per Una Storia Delle Dottrine 36 (70):5-13.
    L’introduzione alla sezione monografica _Politica dell’algoritmo: tecnologie, poteri, teorie_, prende in esame il nesso tra tecnologia e politica a partire dal modo in cui la prima, e in particolare le tecnologie guidate dagli algoritmi, ha investito irreversibilmente le coordinate istituzionali e sociali entro le quali si è costituito il canone politico moderno, attivando una soglia storica nella quale mutano le forme dei rapporti sociali di dominio, si determinano le possibilità della loro contestazione da parte di uomini e donne che sono (...)

    “Engaging with provocations”. An Interview with Wendy Brown.Paola Rudan - 2025 - Rivista Italiana di Filosofia Politica 7:81-101.
    Wendy Brown is recognized internationally as one of the most important contemporary critics of neoliberalism and for her crucial contribution to feminist political theory. In this dialogue, Brown traces her intellectual itinerary, from her provocative and polemical relationship with the classic authors of political theory, to her confrontation with Marx and Foucault as both indispensable sources for the critique of neoliberalism; from the problem of political subjectivation in the age of identity politics, to the new reactionary politics which challenge feminism (...)

    Il femminismo scomodo di una "Political Theorist".Paola Rudan - 2012 - Scienza and Politica. Per Una Storia Delle Dottrine 24 (46).
    Moving from the publication of the Italian translation of Wendy Brown’s Politics out of History, the essay discusses of two crucial issues for contemporary feminist political theory: the demand for rights and the politics of sexual difference. Concerning the first one, Brown’s peculiar position – her well known critique of rights and her conception of rights as an empty signifier that historically did and still could catalyze powerful political instances – is read through a close understanding of her conception of (...)

    Rivoluzione, costituzioni e governo nel Settecento: Hume e Bentham.Paola Rudan & Luca Cobbe - 2014 - Scienza and Politica. Per Una Storia Delle Dottrine 26 (51).
    We asked a series of questions to Luca Cobbe and Paola Rudan, authors of two books foregrounding the turning point of the 18th century by which, moving from the experience of the revolution, the structure of the constitution and configuration of government were deeply rethought. The two works, respectively about David Hume and Jeremy Bentham, contribute significantly to illuminate the way by which obedience has been reconsidered when society and opinion became the sources of political legitimation. This dialogue at distance (...)

    Riscrivere la storia, fare la storia. Sulla donna come soggetto in Christine de Pizan e Margaret Cavendish.Paola Rudan - 2016 - Scienza and Politica. Per Una Storia Delle Dottrine 28 (54).
    In The City of Ladies and Bell in Campo, Christine de Pizan and Margaret Cavendish imagine women’s participation to war as a metaphor of the sexual conflict that they must fight in order to conquer their visibility in history. While Pizan rewrites history from women’s stand point and acknowledges the universal value of sexual difference for the plan of salvation, Cavendish moves within a modern frame and thinks history as the result of human action. In both cases, the tale of (...)

    Securing the future: Jeremy Bentham's a fragment on government and the american revolution.Paola Rudan - 2013 - History of Political Thought 34 (3):479-506.
    The article suggests that A Fragment on Government can be read as Bentham's contribution to the American Controversy. Though the contemporary vicissitudes are never mentioned in the text, Bentham's intellectual relationship with John Lind shows his interest in them. It is argued that Bentham criticizes the political discourses adopted both by the Americans and the supporters of the British Government. Bentham's legal positivism appears to be both a way of interpreting the constitutional aspect of the imperial relationship, and the basis (...)
