Ratio sub Ratione — Predictive Processing, the Justificatory Function of Reason, and the Neural Substrate of the Unexaminable Prior Abstract The three prior monographs established a layered architecture of human cognition — an application layer of explicit doctrine, cleared by secularization, resting on a firmware layer of unexamined axiom that no argument
Essai — Being a True Account of the Sunday Worship of Two Men Who Do Not Go to Church It is Sunday evening in America, and two men are about to pray. Neither of them knows this. If you told them, they would be insulted. Both are modern. Both are rational.
Sub Specie Saeculi — Confessional Substrata, the Persistence of the Theological BIOS, and the Divergence of National Economic Schools Abstract The secularization thesis — that modernity replaced theological authority with autonomous reason — is here treated not as false but as incomplete, and the incompleteness is shown to be structural rather than incidental.
The Heresiological Phase-Space, the Predictability of Transgression, and the Refutation of Irrationality-Exceptionalism Abstract The first monograph established that persistent power systems compile a local observation into a universal norm and seal the compilation, and that the catalogue of suppressed variants — the heresiological record — is best read not as
Abstract A persistent power system is any social arrangement that originates in a local event, becomes a universal claim, and survives across generations — ecclesia, state, legal order, hereditary class, credentialing institution. This monograph models such systems as the output of a single five-stage transformation that compiles a local, space-
On the Appropriation of Uncertainty, and the Foreclosure of the Probabilistic Field This paper is not a defence of climate science, nor an attack upon it. It takes no position on whether the planet is warming, by how much, or to what end. It is concerned with something prior to
On the constructed reality of money, time, and the modern state Abstract This essay advances one claim: that the operations by which modern states create money, defer crises, and constrain rivals are not metaphorically but categorically magical, in the precise sense established by the anthropology of art and the philosophy
Contre l'actualisme, ou pourquoi la gauche et la droite jouent la même partie Il faut commencer par une insulte, et qu'elle soit précise : la querelle qui structure la vie politique française depuis 1789 — la gauche contre la droite, le partage et la propriété, Jaurès contre Thiers,
A Manifesto on Reading the Unexercised On the fourth and fifth of June, 2026, the world's semiconductor stocks fell together, across every ocean, in a single coordinated convulsion. The Nasdaq took its worst day in over a year. Seoul fell five and a half percent before lunch. Broadcom

L'Automate. Mathématiques. Opérations d'addition et de soustraction de 0 à 100 et de 0 à 1000. Disponible en librairie. – Les Éditions Passe-Temps Il existe en France une figure que le pays ne sait pas lire. Elle est lue partout, commentée partout, jugée partout. Mais elle
Il est une chose que l'on vient à connaître en passant devant les temples des diverses religions. C'est une connaissance de la foi elle-même ; c'est une connaissance de l'homme et de la société. J'ai passé devant les temples de
L'élargissement de l'OTAN, l'angoisse de l'identité européenne et l'échec stratégique des deux camps (2000-2008) I. Le paradoxe de l'assurance méprisante Il est, dans le discours occidental sur la Russie au cours des années qui séparent la première
NATO Expansion, the Anxiety of European Identity, and the Strategic Failure on Both Sides (2000–2008) I. The Paradox of Contemptuous Confidence There is a curious feature of Western discourse on Russia in the years between Putin's first election and the August war in Georgia, one that becomes
The Structural Parallels Between European and Chinese Intellectual History, and What External Powers Miss About Xi Jinping's China I. The Question For most of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, a confident European answer existed to the question of why China had "failed" to become modern. Hegel
1. Executive Summary The dominant Anglophone narratives about Korea and Japan — the framework of Hallyu as Korean ascent paired with Japanese cultural decline, the framing of K-pop and J-pop as postmodern hybrid forms, the persistent treatment of the two societies as historical adversaries within a colonial-grievance binary,
1. Executive Summary The dominant Anglophone narratives about China — both the "imminent domination" school and the "imminent collapse" school — fail under empirical scrutiny. The data from 2025 and the first months of 2026 supports neither extreme. What it supports instead is a more analytically demanding finding:
Simmel, Koselleck, Voegelin, and the Meaning Crisis Preface: On the Completion of an Architecture The first volume of this series diagnosed a civilization in the terminal phase of its own premises. Sorokin's Sensate culture — organized around the reduction of all reality to what can be sensed, measured, and
Ibn Khaldun, Asabiyya, and the Geopolitical Transition A Note Before Beginning The first volume of this series argued that Pitirim Sorokin was suppressed by a specific institutional mechanism: Cold War epistemology rerouting resources away from civilizational critique and toward quantifiable, policy-relevant social science. The suppression was active, datable, and
Pitirim Sorokin and the Crisis We Were Never Allowed to Name Preface to the Series There is a particular kind of intellectual violence that does not announce itself. It does not burn books. It does not imprison thinkers. It does something more efficient and more durable: it reclassifies dangerous thought
Janus is an essay series. From 001 through 009, REGNIS mapped the question — why power fails, how it sustains itself, what the interregnum reveals. Janus is the answer. Not to the crisis, but to the deeper problem: what durable rule requires, what the ruler must become, and what the governed
The shaman's primary function is not healing. It is naming. To know the true name of the power afflicting the community — the spirit, the force, the energy operating beneath the surface of events — is the condition of any engagement with it. Without the name, there is no relationship.
"Fallen, fallen is Babylon the Great." The announcement in Revelation 18 has been read as triumph for two millennia — the persecuting empire brought low, the martyrs vindicated, the cosmic ledger balanced. René Girard read it differently. For Girard, the fall of Babylon is not a celebration. It is
Antonio Gramsci wrote from a fascist prison in 1930 that the old world was dying and the new world struggled to be born, and that now was the time of monsters. The sentence has become a slogan, applied loosely to any moment of political turbulence. This is precisely the wrong
