Post Graduate Work in Progress Seminar: Alex Underwood - 'Problems of Liberalism'
Location: Room S0.17
Alex's aim in this paper is to present some of the concepts of Deleuze and Guattari as useful pragmatic interventions into political problems, introducing a methodological shift that will shed new light on the problem of how Liberalism should be defined. After explaining the dangers faced by any definition of Liberalism according to content or historical period, Alex explores the possibility of tracing the various problems central to Liberal Theory in search of shared pre-suppositions regarding the nature of reason and the thinking subject.
The talk will be followed by a response, discussion and drinks at The Dirty Duck. All students and staff are welcome.
