#CPERN Mid-term Workshop @University of Helsinki
Glad to be part of a community where politics and knowledge are openly claimed as inseparable and where the myth of neutrality is exposed for what it is: a convenient alibi for the machinery of power.

Our Midterm Workshop 'Critical Political Economy at the Time of Monsters' has come to a close
Many thanks to all our amazing participants for the great time together!
And a special thanks to @teivo.bsky.social and Silke Trommer for welcoming us in beautiful Helsinki!
See you all again next year!
Thrilled to have presented my paper "Interregnum, Polycrisis, and Liquid Modernity" at the Critical Political Conference in Helsinki! Helsinki was absolutely stunning β a blend of Nordic serenity, and the magical late-summer light reflecting off the Baltic Sea. The perfect atmosphere for deep critical dialogue! The conference brought together truly inspiring scholars whose insights on global instability were both humbling and energizing. Discussing crises of democracy, ecology, and capitalism with such brilliant minds reaffirmed why spaces like CPC are vital. My paper wove together three pivotal concepts: 1οΈβ£ Interregnum (Gramsci): Our "time between orders," where old systems collapse but new ones havenβt crystallized. 2οΈβ£ Polycrisis (Morin, Edgar & Tooze, Adam): Overlapping crises (climate, inequality, pandemics, war) amplifying each other. Itβs not just multiple problems; itβs systemic entanglement. 3οΈβ£ Liquid Modernity (Bauman, Zygmunt): Our social structures, identities, and power are fluid, unstable, and elusive. Grateful to the organizers, fellow presenters, and engaged attendees for fierce yet generous debates. Onward! β Thank you Prof. Teivo Teivainen for showing us the city & finnish history! Thank you Yuliya Yurchenko Silke Trommer Bernd Bonfert Madalaine Moore for organzing this great event! #CriticalTheory #PoliticalScience #ZygmuntBauman #Interregnum #Polycrisis #LiquidModernity #Helsinki #AcademicTwitter #Conference #PoliticalPhilosophy
