linked from: lacaninireland A1: SEMINARS INTRODUCTION These translations were originally done for a reading group of colleagues and graduates which has met since 1987.  Each translation was drafted during the summer vacation, was worked through on a weekly basis by the group and then given its present form. Tony Hughes has undertaken the task of putting the original photocopies of the seminars into a presentable form.  Here is his description of where the work is at: a)      All seminars will be updated to improve readability and give a more professional finished product. This requires a very large number of adjustments, given the number of seminars involved. b)      The following seminars have the diagrams inserted: Seminars V, VI, VIII, IX, X, XII, XIII, XIV. c)       The remaining seminars do not as yet have any diagrams inserted, these are: XV, XVI, XVII, XVIII, XIX, XX, XXI, XXII, and XXIII. d)      As each [...]

Ph.D thesis

The main purpose of this thesis is to explore the theoretical and methodological approaches that are involved in understanding how to achieve interaction, communication and collaboration in socio-technical contexts. Hence this thesis seeks for a systemic, ontological framework for understanding and approaching interaction, communication and collaboration processes, which is able to describe the ways we organise in networked societal groups or contexts of interactive participation, within a context of psychological, social, and material relations.

Democracy and Dissapointment

By |2016-01-12T21:11:29+02:00February 6th, 2008|philosophy, politics|0 Comments

This is an interesting public conversation between Simon Critchley and Alain Badiou that took place on November 15, 2007 at Slought foundation. It features a first session were Simon Critchley outlines his thoughts about democracy and disappointment as presented on his recent book (Infinitely Demanding: Ethics of Commitment, Politics of Resistance). His analysis is based on his quasi-Levinasian, Badiouan, Lacanian and Kantian ideas about ethics, politics and philosophy and he is mainly interested in the politics of resistance-military neoliberalism, neo leninism, neo anarchism. In the next session Badiou outlines his thoughts upon 6 phrases that he spotted on Critchley's Book, and tries to relate/contrast them to his philosophical beliefs. Badiou, A., & Critchley, S.
