פרטים על ד״ר אבולעפיה:
Jacob Abolafia is a political theorist who writes on the history of political thought and critical theory, broadly construed. His first book project, based on his dissertation “Penal Modernism before Modernity: Correction and Confinement in the History of Political Thought,” advances a new theory of how penal incarceration came to capture the Western philosophical imagination. It traces institutional accounts of incarceration, the moral psychology of crime and the political economy of punishment from Plato’s Athens to Jeremy Bentham’s London, with an eye towards the present carceral dysfunction. He has published and taught on the history of political thought from classical antiquity to the present day. His ongoing research interests include social and political philosophy from early modernity through the critical theorists, Jewish and Islamic political thought, classical philosophy, and the philosophical basis of political economy. He received his PhD from Harvard University’s Government Department, and was a fellow at the Edmond J. Safra Center for Ethics at Tel Aviv University before accepting his current position as a postdoctoral fellow at the Van Leer Institute’s Polonsky Academy in Jerusalem.
