Conference Radical Thought in the Anthropocene: Theories and Concepts of Critical Theory
to be announced
What is critique? What can Critical Theory do for society? What characterises critical thinking? How can radical thought be rendered practically relevant?
We will bring the concept and idea of critique into productive constellations with a variety of concepts and categories pertaining to social and cultural theory. In doing so, and by highlighting fundamental societal and existential challenges of the 21st century, we will reflect upon the possibilities and potentials of a productive critique of society, especially concerning its implications for academic theory and lived practice.
In view of the great global, societal, ecological and economic challenges, we will put to the test the social significance and practical relevance of cultural and social theory in the 21st century.
In addition to renowned keynote speakers such as Rodrigo Duarte, Lydia Goehr, Sven Kramer and Michael J. Thompson, this edition also focuses on young scientists. The conference language is English.
