Two new essays by Rosalind Morris explore the politics of accusation and the crowd

In a contribution to the festschrift for James T Siegel and an anniversary volume devoted to Freud's Group Psychology, Rosalind Morris takes up the question of accusation, in history and in the academy ("Allegories and Algorithms of the Purge: Thinking with James Siegel, Once Again," in Indonesia), and the different itineraries of white melancholia in the US and South Africa ("The Lessons of an Absent Teacher" in Then and Now: On the Crowd, the Subject and the Collective).
