In memoriam: G. A. Cohen (1941-2009)

For those who work in political philosophy, G.A. Cohen was a figure of intelligence, incite, and wit.  Of course his work in political theory was  superb, and his attempts to rescue Marxism from the ‘bullshit’ have helped me and many of my students.

Alas, I did not have the opportunity to meet Jerry.  I cannot eulogize him, but I can join others and respectfully mark his passing.
