    principal goal(bookshelf.html)
    of the CPA is to support theCLRfreeJames Journal
    exchange of ideas (clr-james-journal.html)
    and foster an intellectual community that
    is truly representative of the diversity of voices and perspectives that is paradigmatic of, but not limited to, the
    Caribbean. The Caribbean is thus understood not solely as a geopolitical region, but more generally as a trope to

    certain dimensions Registration
    of the multiple undersides (registration.html)
    of modernity. Likewise, philosophy is conceived, not as
    an isolated academic discipline, but as rigorous theoretical re ection about fundamental problems faced by
    humanity. Understood in this way, Caribbean philosophy is a transdisciplinary form of interrogation informed by
    Contact (contact.html)
    scholarly knowledges as well as by practices and artistic expressions that elucidate fundamental questions that
     
    emerge in contexts of discovery, conquest, racial, gender, and sexual domination, genocide, dependency, and
    exploitation as well as freedom, emancipation, and decolonization. Re ection about these areas often appears in
    philosophical texts, but also in a plethora of other genres such as literature, music, and historical writings. The CPA
    invites theoretical engagements with all such questions, thematic areas, and genres with emphasis on any given
     
    discipline or eld, but with a common interest in shifting the geography of reason, by which we mean
     
    approaching the Caribbean and the global south in general as zones of sustainable practices and knowledges.

    Existentialism from a Global Perspective

    All of these philosophers, social theorists, and artists were in dialogue with or explored the works of European
    and Euro-American existentialists such as Hazel Barnes, Simone de Beauvoir, Maurice Blanchot, Albert Camus,
    Jacques Derrida (depending on how Deconstruction is read), Søren Kierkegaard, Karl Jaspers, Martin Heidegger,
    Gabriel Marcel, Maxine Greene, Friedrich Nietzsche, and Jean-Paul Sartre.  The dialogue that will emerge from the
    above broader portrait should stimulate a more rich conception of existential thought for future generations.

    * While Albert Camus and Jacques Derrida were born in Algeria, they are read primarily as French and more at
    the mainstream of the Western academy, which is why they’re reserved for the concluding paragraph.

    ** While geographically in Europe, Spain is geopolitically more part of the Global South, which is why it is
    included here.
    *** Although the USA is geopolitically First World, the designation and ideas of the theorists and artists listed
    here are squarely located in the Global South.
