CRPLA Seminar - Critical Theory in the Digital Age
S2.77 (Cowling Room), Social Sciences & MS Teams

Critical Theory in the Digital Age

Friday 8 March 2024, 1 pm – 5 pm, S2.77 (Cowling Room), Social Sciences Building, and on MS TeamsLink opens in a new window

Ever since its beginnings, Critical Theory has been concerned with the constitution of human subjectivity. Its proponents have understood this constitution as a process between individuals and society that changes historically. In this symposium, we will explore how social imperatives today form and deform human faculties – sensually and intellectually – and critically investigate the extent to which the work of early Frankfurt School theorists (Adorno, Marcuse, Benjamin, and others) enables us to shed light on these contemporary processes.

1 – 1.50 pm

Alexandra Schauer (Institute for Social Research, Goethe University, Frankfurt):

‘Man without a World: On the Disappearance of the Idea of Social Agency’

2 – 2.50 pm

Lars Rensmann (University of Passau):

‘On the Politics of Unreason in the Digital Age: Reading Social Media and Reconfigurations of Authoritarianism with Adorno’

Break

 

3.10 – 4 pm

Sebastian Tränkle (Free University, Berlin):

‘Deformation or Perfection. On the Dialectic of Aesthetic Self-Formation’

4.10 – 5 pm

Antonia Hofstätter (University of Warwick):

‘Atrophied Images: Childhood as Critique in T.W. Adorno’
