The Work-In-Process seminar series aims to provide a space for regular exchange between researchers working on the philosophy of Alfred North Whitehead. In this session Veronika Krajíčková will present on "Reading Modernism Differently via Whitehead’s Metaphysics of Experience, Feeling and Value."
If capitalism doesn’t work for people and the environment, what does work? Capital itself may not be the problem, but only in the way it is regulated. In this process pop-up a different approach to capital, following Herman Daly, John Cobb, and several related thinkers, is played out in the practical workings of an imaginary community. Is such a community feasible, and who would want to become a member? Kent Myers will explore these questions and present a new economic vision for ecological civilization.
In this event, Céleste M.E. Hogan will share their ideas about the holistic connections between fundamental physics (both quantum and cosmic), philosophy, and consciousness, and the consequent urgent need for a planetary eco-social revolution. It is now imperative that we become aware of, and begin to live in greater harmony with, emergent, self-organizing, ecological dynamics, if we are to stave off the imminent collapse of the biosphere and the consequent collapse of human civilization.
