21. May
Colloquium
6:15-7:45pm, C 40.530
The Center for Critical Studies colloquium takes place three times per semester and gives CCS members the opportunity to present and discuss ongoing research and writing projects.
In this session, Nicolas Schneider will hold give a talk with the following title: "The Political History of Diremption". This session will be held together with the colloquium of the research initiative on the Disruptive Condition.
"What role does negativity play in the constitution and reproduction of our contemporary predicament? How can the relation between creative destruction and a polycrisis with no way out be conceptualised? This talk explores Gillian Rose’s foray into a ‘political history of diremption’, according to which modern capitalist society emerged through and as a specific form of separation between ethics and law. To comprehend the spiralling dialectic that obtains in diremption, Rose proposes speculation on new beginnings."
The Center for Critical Studies colloquium is organised by Heiko Stubenrauch and Anne Gräfe. This session will take place in English.
