ABSTRACT:The new metaphysics presented in this article is more indebted to the metaphysics of Ayn Rand than to any other. The author's system is a transfiguration of hers at the deepest level. The differences and commonalities with Rand's fundamentals are explicated and argued. Her fundamentals and the author's are set in their relations to others, ancient to modern.

M. Kizilov
ABSTRACT:This article reviews a new book by a Russian scholar, Anastasiya Grigorovskaya, which places Ayn Rand's fiction into its Russian context. Grigorovskaya comes to the conclusion that Ayn Rand's imagery and fiction was heavily influenced by Russian philosophy and literature. Paradoxical it may seem, but written in America in the English language, her novels and plays contain hidden references to ideas and tendencies that preoccupied the minds of many Russian thinkers and writers in the nineteenth and early twentieth century.

ABSTRACT:This article focuses on the hegemonic shift portrayed by Ayn Rand in Atlas Shrugged. The book focuses on the conflict between producers and those who exploit them. The protagonist, John Galt, leads a strike of the producers, which undermines the society's looters and puts an end to the hegemonic control of the left. Neoliberalism—used here as a synonym for contemporary libertarian thought—rescues the world from the havoc wreaked by statism. This shift is studied in the light of Antonio Gramsci's theory of hegemony, focusing on the role of intellectuals.

Dennis C. Hardin
abstract:In 1958, Nathaniel Branden founded what would become the Nathaniel Branden Institute and launched the Objectivist movement through a course of twenty lectures he called "The Basic Principles of Objectivism." In 2009, that lecture series became a book and an important historical record. This review captures the essence of those lectures while also taking a close look at Branden's philosophical odyssey. It attempts to recount whether and how far the man whom Ayn Rand saw as the living image of John Galt distanced himself from the guidance he had once given in the years after NBI closed its doors forever.

abstract:In The Perfectionist Turn, Den Uyl and Rasmussen argue for an ethics of responsibility and oppose the prevailing ethics of respect. Political philosophy must be "tethered" ontologically, and arguments such as Moore's open question argument that would, if correct, show that tethering is not possible do not succeed.
