Mar 3 @ 5:30 pm – 7:30 pm
The COVID-19 pandemic is said to be a once-in-a-century incident, and it brought to us a sense of crisis at various levels. What is a crisis, though?

Rethinking Critique: Dialectic of Enlightenment and Models of Cultural Evolution. Benjamin Morgan 6:00 pm
Rethinking Critique: Dialectic of Enlightenment and Models of Cultural Evolution. Benjamin Morgan @ Wolff Conference Room/D1103
Mar 9 @ 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm

Political Concepts Graduate Conference
Political Concepts Graduate Conference @ New School tbd
Mar 24 – Mar 25 all-day
Political Concepts: A Critical Lexicon began as a multidisciplinary, web-based journal in which an assemblage of contributions focused on a single concept with the express intention of re-situating its meaning in the field of political discourse. By reflecting on what has remained unquestioned or unthought in that concept, this all-around collection of essays seeks to open pathways for another future—one that is not already determined and ill-fated. From this forum for engaged scholarship, a succession[...]
