My Article at In Mala Fide on Paul Piccone

Can be read here.

Intro:

How does a Marxist go from student radical and scholar to contrarian gadfly sharing more in common with “beautiful losers” (paleo-conservative icon Sam Francis’ quasi-flattering moniker for he and his ilk) of the American right than his own lefty peers? If you’re Paul Piccone, the late founder and editor of the journal Telos – America’s punishingly obscure publication for Euro philosophy with a stateside twist – you pull such a grudging 180 after decades of disappointment with the New Left and its ascent to power.
