Dogan Goecmen <Dogangoecmen@aol.com> is the latest addition to OPE-L. The following is an edited version of some information he provided as background for this post. Dogan Goecmen (NB: his name can't really be spelled correctly, or at least easily, using my keyboard)is originally from Turkey. He has lived for the last 25 years in Germany. The last 10 years he spent in the UK studying the Scottish Enlightenment. He has studied philosophy, social economy and politics in Hamburg and Edinburgh. Recently he completed his PhD dissertation at the University of Edinburgh on Adam Smith's ethics and political economy, which will be published soon by I. B. Tauris (London/New York). Currently he is unemployed and looking for a lecturer post in the history of the theories of political economy, epistemology, moral and political philosophy and/or in the history of political thought. He is interested in Hegelian dialectic, Smithian sympathy ethic and Marxian political economy and philosophy. He has published various papers in different languages on utopian socialists, Marx, Marxism, the concept of labour, the theory of international relations, Rosa Luxemburg and Hegelian dialectic, and on Adam Smith's epistemology. Currently he works on the reception of Hegelian dialectic by Proudhon and Marx, the debates on Kantian and Hegelian philosophy at the beginning of the 20th century, liberalism and world poverty and commodity theory of knowledge. His main focus in all these is the concept of the self. Dogan: welcome aboard! In solidarity, Jerry
