If you have a question about this talk, please contact Laura Shen.

In this lecture I reflect on the state of the global world order, the rise of authoritarian and populist politics, and the palpable absence of empathy and examine the ways in which education itself is deeply implicated in these developments. I ask what might an ethico-political education look like that would give rise to what Gramsci termed – transformismo; a new social order of popular radicalism that might emerge out of a divisive politics of regressive and progressive neoliberalism.
