[1] Hauser studied philosophy at Charles University in Prague, and completed his dissertation, entitled Modernity and Negativity.

His primary fields of interest are critical theory, Western Marxism and Post-Marxism, and their relation to contemporary thought.

[4] He published a number of articles, both academic (in Filosofický časopis, Décalages, An Althusser Studies Journal) and popular (Právo, A2, Literární noviny, A2larm[5] and Deník referendum[6]).

The association held a number of conferences and public seminars, many of which included Hauser as a speaker, and also published translations of the works of Alain Badiou, Jacques Rancière or Slavoj Žižek.

Alongside the focus on European philosophy, the association also concentrates on the Czech and Slovak leftist scene (Karel Kosík, Egon Bondy, Milan Machovec).
