Volume 14 opens with two contributions to ancient rhetoric and philosophy, and to their modification among later thinkers. The second cluster of articles includes a discussion on the Finnish 19th-century concept of "woman", an intellectual biography of a German-American scholar and a review article of a Spanish conceptual history dictionary. The third theme connects to debates on democracy in the journal's previous volumes with articles on the conceptualisation of emergency with a focus on Sweden, on the relationship between democracy and resentment, as well as a proposal for the parliamentarisation of elections.
