”Alle bedstefædrene blev fanget til sidst. Men mange virksomheder blev aldrig sprængt.”

Albert Scherfig's tale i dag i anledning af 80-året for Danmarks befrielse er ikke en hyldest til de pæne fortællinger, men en påmindelse om modstandskampens karakter.

Kom med når Søren Schauser –kendt fra Den klassiske musikquiz– holder foredrag om forholdet mellem filosofi og klassisk musik. Som Marquard siger: »Filosofi er – frit efter Clausewitz – fortsættelsen af musikken under anvendelse af andre midler.«

Tirsdag d. 13. maj kl 19.30 i Kbh. Gratis. Vel mødt.

I want to thank the editorial group at the Simone de Beauvoir Studies for an exceptional constructive feedback and generous help with the article 🖤 I am honoured that the article receives their annual Patterson Prize in commemoration of long-time editor in chief Yolanda Astarita Patterson. Thank you

Politically, Beauvoir's work counters utopian feminism. Methodologically, it stages a feminist immanent critique. On the level of intellectual history, it reveals a particularly fruitful intersection of two events in French thought – the so-called Hegel renaissance and the "turn to the concrete".

Rather than the well-rehearsed "master/slave" dialectic, I zoom in on Beauvoir's philosophical use of the figure of The Little Mermaid. This dialectical legacy of feminist thought implies a political objective that is better understood in terms of emancipation than equality

Looking forward to inviting science policy to the couch with the trained philosophy-psychoanalysists Henrik Jøker Bjerre, Mladen Dolar, Anders Ruby and Brian Benjamin Hansen. My paper is called 'Applied Doubt, Fantasizing about Hercules and Other Real Problems' 😬💦

What fantasies shape this orientation? Does it, for example, operate with a spooky notion of pure, non-applied thought that must be combatted at all costs? Must one suppress “symptoms” in the research processes, such as anomalies, inconsistencies, and doubt?

The Specter of Applied Science – TODAY !

In contemporary academia, we constantly talk about applied science and real-world problems. This seminar aims to turn the tables by critically examining the very ideas and fantasies surrounding application-oriented thinking.
