info from the infinite thought Speculative Realism / Speculative Materialism A One-Day Workshop 12–7pm, Friday 24 April 2009 Lecture Theatre H124 St Matthias Campus University of the West of England Bristol BS16 2JP Participants: Ray Brassier (American University of Beirut), Iain Hamilton Grant (University of the West of England), Graham Harman (American University in Cairo), Alberto Toscano (Goldsmiths, University of London) with a paper by Quentin Meillassoux (Ecole Normale Supérieure) The first ‘Speculative Realism’ workshop at Goldsmiths College, London, in 2007 sparked considerable interest and debate in contemporary European philosophy circles. This second workshop shall pursue some of the fundamental issues that emerged out of the first, principal among them the relation of speculative philosophy to materialist metaphysics. Materialism emerges at two key yet divergent junctures: firstly at the physicalist level, raising the problems of reduction and epistemic change, and in consequence, confronting the viability of any kind of speculative [...]

This is understandable if for no other reason than the fact [...]

Mεμονωμένο επεισόδιο ή σύμπτωμα μιας κοινωνίας που νοσεί;

By |2016-01-12T21:10:27+02:00April 10th, 2009|Uncategorized|0 Comments

Σοκ προκάλεσε στην κοινή γνώμη το πρωτοφανές για τα ελληνικά χρονικά αιματηρό επεισόδιο σε σχολείο στο Ρέντη. Θεωρείτε ότι αποτελεί μεμονωμένο περιστατικό ή σύμπτωμα μιας κοινωνίας που νοσεί; Ο ίδιος ο δυισμός της ερώτησης αποτελεί παγίδα ιδεολογικού επιπέδου. Κατά την ταπεινή μου γνώμη, δεν πρόκειται ούτε για μεμονωμένο επεισόδιο, ούτε για σύμπτωμα μιας κοινωνίας που νοσεί. Πρόκειται και για τα δυο ταυτόχρονα, σε ένα κοινωνικό πλαίσιο που το ένα επιτρέπει την ύπαρξη και την ανάδυση του άλλου. Με τον ίδιο τρόπο που μεμονωμένες περιπτώσεις γίνονται κανόνας και παράγουν κοινωνικές καταστάσεις οι οποίες ορίζονται ως συμπτώματα, συνυπάρχουν με την ασταθή κοινωνική μνήμη η οποία επιτρέπει την ανάδυση τέτοιων φαινόμενων. Ο ίδιος ο δυισμός λοιπόν και το παιχνίδι της απάντησης δεν μας οδηγούν σχεδόν πουθενά, δεν επιζητούν απάντηση, δεν έχουν απάντηση. Το μόνο που μπορούν να παραγάγουν είναι προβληματισμός για να συνειδητοποιήσουμε τα επόμενα μας βήματα και δράση μέσα στην κοινωνία που, [...]
