This volume examines the intertwined meanings of reason, crisis, and Europe against the backdrop of acute political, ethical, and geopolitical instability. Eschewing any singular diagnosis or overarching interpretive frame, it assembles a range of disciplinary, methodological, and normative approaches in productive tension. Through analyses of war and unrest, democratic backsliding, persistent colonial legacies, neoliberal forms of governance, and divergent philosophical lineages, the volume invites readers to reassess the foundations, limits, and possible futures of European thought and institutional life.

Organized into four parts, the volume opens by tracing key moments in the philosophical history of reason and its recurrent crises within modern European intellectual traditions. Parts II and III extend this framing by introducing new theoretical perspectives and intellectual histories. Part II highlights the contradictions, contestations, and negotiations that have shaped the evolution of European philosophy. Part III offers a critical examination of political and legal discourses forged in response to the crises of the twentieth century, interrogating how these normative projects have influenced the trajectory of late modern Europe. Part IV concludes the volume with contemporary theoretical and political reflections on Europe's present and its possible reconfigurations.

Reason, Crisis, and Europe will appeal to scholars and advanced students in European philosophy, European studies, political theory, and the history of legal and political thought, as well as readers seeking a rigorous, interdisciplinary account of European modernity and its enduring crises.

Marco Piasentier is an assistant professor in political philosophy at the University of Salerno and a research affiliate at the Centre of Excellence in Law, Identity and European Narratives, University of Helsinki.

Panu-Matti Pöykkö is a grant-funded researcher focusing on the philosophy of religion and contemporary European and American philosophy at the Faculty of Theology, University of Helsinki, and a visiting scholar at the École Normale Supérieure, Paris.
