still seems a significant reality in cultural terms. but also philosophically. like 2 camps have rediscovered reasons to talk to each other but still have very different concerns.

I have this vague impression that analytic philosophy largely but not entirely won jobs in philosophy departments, but one can in fact be doing continental philosophy in a bunch of non-philosophy departments. Is this your sense? If so, I wonder how it shakes out all considered.

It’s a good question. There are certainly some philosophers in exile, but I wonder how many of those actually trained in philosophy departments as opposed to philosophically inflected comparative lit, geography, and other such departments. Not really sure.

Is it not easier to say European philosophy.. this would exclude Americans of course

Honesty the people who say the divide is fake or w/e and then refuse to recognize precisely this material division typically just translate the divide such that people trained in the continental tradition are doing “not” philosophy or “bad” philosophy or “unrigorous work.”
