In Zeiten atomarer Aufrüstung, Klimakatastrophe und Weltuntergangsstimmung wird der Philosoph Günther Anders gern herangezogen. Die Tagung »Kritische Theorie der Endzeit« ging seiner Gegenwärtigkeit auf den Grund.

The world is crumbling, but Berliners are still drinking matcha latte in the sun. This city is the perfect testing ground for very late-capitalist climate apartheid

(S+) Philosophin über Faschismus: »Ich bewundere alle, die in ostdeutschen Dörfern nicht AfD wählen« Der Kapitalismus sei die Wurzel des Übels, glaubt die Philosophin Eva von Redecker. Wer die weltweiten faschistischen Tendenzen stoppen wolle, müsse für eine neue Wirtschaftsordnung streiten.

»Wer am Kapitalismus scheitert, hat als Rückfalloption nur den Phantombesitz. Um ihn toben die rechten Kämpfe der Gegenwart.«

Save the Date: On March 10th, Q. Slobodian & B. Tarnoff will join us to present their new book on "Muskism", to discuss not just who Elon Musk is as a person but what he represents as an avatar of a technocratic ideology: a playbook for our postliberal age.

🎉 Exciting news: I submitted my dissertation start of January.

Title: "AI and the Climate Crisis - A Social Critique"

I argue that AI's real climate damage isn't resource use. AI restructures the way we relate to each other and the world. It makes our extractive order feel natural & inevitable.

Reminds me of my back pocket idea to design a course in which each session we discuss the history and political economy of a single element. Has anyone taught something similar?

Years ago I wrote some stuff for this book, coming out of a debate we participated in as Endnotes. I had thought the project gone, but it has risen from the dead. Odd to have something you wrote come out so long after the event. Glad they got there though!
