Daniel Loick received his Doctorate from Goethe University in Frankfurt, where he is now a junior faculty member in the Philosophy Department. His main research interests are in the areas of ethics, social and political philosophy (especially modern political theory), critical theory, and post-structuralism. His first book Kritik der Souveränität (2012) is a radical critique of state inflicted violence in all its different forms and aims at developing a notion of non-coercive law. His current project addresses the relationship between right and subjectivity through an investigation of "pathologies of juridicism," claiming that the legal sphere fundamentally contaminates the way in which we relate to ourselves, to others, and to the world so that our (inter-) subjectivity becomes ethically deformed, distorted, or deficient.
