Iris Marion Young
I wanted to pass along the sad news that Iris Marion Young died yesterday, July 31. See here for more information. Prof. Young is something of a hero of mine for the way she combined interest in Merleau-Ponty (see "Throwing Like a Girl") with work on (particularly Habermasian) critical theory (see especially Justice and the Politics of Difference).

The University of Chicago's obituary for Prof. Young can be found here.
