DATE: 5-7 O GEOFFROY DE LAGASNERIE Is a French Philosopher and Sociologist, Currently Serving As a Professor of Philosophy and H INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE “ONE HUNDRED YEARS THAT SHOOK THE WORLD: FAILURES, LEGACIES, AND FUTURES OF THE RUSSIAN REVOLUTION” DATE: 5-7 OCTOBER 2017 VENUES: UNIVERSITY OF ST. GALLEN; LITERATURHAUS ZÜRICH; PALACE, ST. GALLEN KEYNOTE-SPEAKERS GEOFFROY DE LAGASNERIE is a French philosopher and sociologist, currently serving as a Professor of Philosophy and Human Sciences at the École nationale supérieure d’arts in Cergy- Pontoise, France. His work largely pertains to social and political philosophy, epistemology and critical theory, as well as the sociology of cultural and intellectual life. Highly critical of the higher education system in France, as shown in his books Logique de la création. Sur l'Université, la vie intellectuelle et les conditions de l'innovation (2011) and La dernière leçon de Michel Foucault. Sur le néolibéralisme, la théorie et la politique (2012), he was made over-night well-known through his The Art of the Revolt: Snowden, Assange, Manning (2015) and is regarded as one the most important new critical voices of the French intellectual milieu. His latest publications (Manifesto for an Intellectual and Political Counteroffensive – with Edouard Louis, 2015; Juger, 2016) bear witness of his attempts to reenact older or invent new terms for a leftist intellectual reengagement in public debate through attacking the legitimization being offered to right- wing agendas in public discourse. CHRISTOPH MENKE is a German philosopher and Professor of Practical Philosophy (with a special focus on legal philosophy and political philosophy) in the Cluster of Excellence Normative Orders at the Goethe-University, Frankfurt am Main, Germany. His philosophy focuses on topics of political and legal philosophy (democracy and equality, history and concept of subjective rights, human rights), theories of subjectivity (abilities and action, spirit and inner nature), ethics (success and failure, theories of the tragic) and aesthetics (aesthetics of modernity, tragedy and theater). Particular attention is given to the figure of subjective rights, which characterize the form of the government of modern societies. Some of his numerous books include The Sovereignty of Art. Aesthetic Negativity in Adorno and Derrida (1988), Tragödie im Sittlichen. Gerechtigkeit und Freiheit nach Hegel (1996), Reflections of Equality (2000), Tragic Play: Irony and Theater from Sophocles to Beckett (2005), Force: A Fundamental Concept of Aesthetic Anthropology (2008), Kreation und Depression. Freiheit im gegenwärtigen Kapitalismus (2011 – with Juliane Rebentisch), Die Kraft der Kunst (2013), Kritik der Rechte (2015) etc. JEAN-LUC NANCY is Professor Emeritus at the University of Strasbourg and holder of the Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel Chair at The European Graduate School (EGS), in Saas- Fee, Switzerland. Co-founder (with Philippe Lacoue-Labarthe) of the legendary Centre de Recherche philosophique sur le politique in 1980, that has proven a pivotal point for the European political thought of ongoing significant resonance, Jean-Luc Nancy is one of the most prolific and surely one of the most important philosophers of our times. He does not hesitate to engage himself time and again with the most important philosophical questions and his philosophy is being brightly received all over the world and across a very wide range of disciplines. His works include such mile-stones as the The Speculative Remark: One of Hegel's Bons Mots (1973), The Literary Absolute: The Theory of Literature in German Romanticism (with Philippe Lacoue-Labarthe – 1978), Les Fins de l'homme à partir du travail de Jacques Derrida (with Philippe Lacoue-Labarthe – 1981), Rejouer le politique (with Philippe Lacoue-Labarthe – 1981), The Inoperative Community (1983), The Experience of Freedom (1988), La comparution (with Jean-Christophe Bailly – 1991), Corpus (1992), The Birth to Presence (1993), The Sense of the World (1993), Being Singular Plural (1996), The Gravity of Thought (1997), The Creation of the World or Globalization (2002), Noli me tangere (2003), Dis-Enclosure: The Deconstruction of Christianity (2005), What's These Worlds Coming To? (2011 – with Aurélien Barrau), Que faire? (2016) etc. DONATELLA DELLA PORTA is a political scientist and currently Professor of Political Science and director of the Institute of Human and Social Sciences of the Scuola Normale Superiore (SNS), Florence, Italy. She has conducted major research projects for which she has been awarded numerous prestigious prices, as well as honorary doctorates. The main topics of her research are social movements, political violence, terrorism, corruption, police and public order policies. In the recent years she has worked relentlessly to promote changes concerning the future of the European Union, the role and future of social movements, last but not least the necessity of mass movements in order to foster horizontal structures in democratic structuration processes. Her vast list of publications includes such titles as Lo scambio occulto. Casi di corruzione politica in Italia (1992), Social Movements, Political Violence and the State (1995), I partiti politici (2001), I new global (2003), Globalization from Below (with Massimiliano Andretta, Lorenzo Mosca and Herbert Reiter – 2006), The Policing of Transnational Protest (with Abby Peterson and Herbert Reiter – 2006), Le ragioni del no. Le campagne contro la Tav in Val di Susa e il Ponte sullo Stretto (with Gianni Piazza – 2008), Approaches and Methodologies in the Social Sciences. A Pluralist Perspective, (with Michael Keating – 2008), Another Europe (2009), Social Movements in Times of Austerity (2015), Can Democracy Be Saved? Participation, Deliberation and Social Movements (2013), etc. SYLVIA SASSE is currently Professor of Literature at the Department for Slavic Studies of the University of Zürich. Her research interests encompass such fields as aesthetics of remembrance, poetics of the space, history, theory and practice of performance arts in Soviet Union and modern day Russia, aesthetics and literature theory of Balkan studies etc. Moreover, she has curated a number of exhibitions on geopoetics, communist autobiographies, literature, aesthetics and the law, immaterial communication, aesthetics of reminiscence, etc. in Zürich, Berlin, Bremen etc. Her in more than one languages translated publications include Kollektivkörper. Kunst und Politik von Verbindung (with Stefanie Wenner – 2002), Texte in Aktion. Sprech- und Sprachakte im Moskauer Konzeptualismus (2003), Wortsünden.

Zur Einführung (2010), Gerichtstheater. Drei sowjetische Agitgerichte (with Gianna Frölicher – 2015), Ästhetische Reaktionen. Wirkungsästhetiken in der russischen Moderne (forthcoming), Kommunismus autobiographisch (with Anne Krier and Tatjana Hofmann – forthcoming) etc. KARL SCHLÖGEL is a German historian and journalist, Professor Emeritus of Eastern European History at the European University Viadrina, Frankfurt an der Oder, Germany. His work focuses on the history of Russian modernity and Stalinism, Russian diaspora and dissident movement, the history of Eastern European cities, as well as on theoretical problems of historical narration. For his path breaking research as committed journalist, theorist and translator he has received innumerous prizes such as the European Essay-Prize Charles Veillon (1990), the Anna-Krüger-Prize of the Wissenschaftskolleg zu Berlin (1999), the Nikolai-Anziferow-Prize, St. Petersburg (2002), the Bundesverdienstkreuz am Bande (2005) and most recently the Prize of the Historisches Kolleg München (2016). Contrary to many representatives of his discipline, Karl Schlögel's themes are derived from a life- historical experience rather than from a logic of research. His way of (un-)doing History is being characterized by a skepsis towards supra-individual ideas and ideologies and in favor of an analysis of forms of pre-political material and everyday cultural life. The following publications – translated in various languages – are indicative of the width and perspective of his always actual historiographic approach: Partei kaputt: Das Scheitern der KPD und die Krise der Linken (1980), Moskau lesen (1984), Go East oder die zweite Entdeckung des Ostens (1995), Petersburg: Das Laboratorium der Moderne 1909-1921 (2002), Die Mitte liegt ostwärts: Europa im Übergang (2002), Planet der Nomaden (2006), Terror und Traum: Moskau 1937 (2008), Grenzland Europa. Unterwegs auf einem neuen Kontinent (2013), Archäologie des Kommunismus oder Russland im 20. Jahrhundert. Ein Bild neu zusammensetzen (2014), Entscheidung in Kiew. Ukrainische Lektionen (2015). .

  • Subjectivity, Truth, and Hermeneutics in Dialogue with Michel Foucault
    Andrews University Seminary Studies, Vol. 56, No. 2, 257–276. Copyright © 2018 Andrews University Seminary Studies. THE TRUTHFUL SELF: SUBJECTIVITY, TRUTH, AND HERMENEUTICS IN DIALOGUE WITH MICHEL FOUCAULT Ante Jerončić Andrews University Abstract In the wake of the hermeneutical turn in Continental philosophy, the question of the interpretive agent has become a central feature in most discussions on hermeneutics. While schools of thought differ significantly in how they position themselves vis-à-vis the subjectivist-objectivist axis, few would deny that the delineation of the interpretive task must attend to the embodied character of human cognition. Taking such a broader framework as a starting point, I will tackle a specific aspect of this problematic by examining Foucault’s conception of subjectivity and truth as it relates to issues of epistemology, moral responsibility, and askēsis. As I will argue, Foucault’s “art of living” persuasively highlights the background or “unthought” aspects of hermeneutics. My particular approach will be to connect Foucault’s brand of virtue epistemology with a broadly post-Heideggerian conception of engaged agency, and in so doing spotlight some assumptions as to what “having truth” or “arriving at it” might mean in the context of hermeneutical practice and being. Keywords: Michel Foucault, hermeneutics, truth, subjectivity, parrhesia, askēsis Introduction* “What is philosophy if not a way of reflecting, not so much on what is true and what is false, as on our relationship to truth?”1 “My problem is the relation of self to self and of telling the truth. My own problem has always been the question of truth, of telling the truth, the wahr-sagen—what it is to tell the truth—and the relation between ‘telling the truth’ and forms of reflexivity, of self upon self.”2 *My profound thanks go to Guilherme Borda whose feedback has been invaluable for the crafting of this article.

A perspective on the new civil disobedience, between international actors and digital media” Thesis by Elettra Repetto FOREWORD The European Master’s Programme in Human Rights and Democra­ tisation (E.MA) is the first Master’s course in human rights and dem­ ocratisation launched and financed by the European Commission that later served as model for establishing other Regional Master’s around the world. Since January 2013 these are all connected and managed by the European Inter­University Centre for Human Rights and Democratisation (EIUC) under the Global Campus of Regional Master’s Programmes (GC). E.MA is a one­year master’s course aimed at preparing professionals to respond to the requirements of daily work in international organ­ isations, field operations, governmental and non­governmental bodies, and academia. The programme offers an action and policy­oriented approach to learning about human rights, democratisation and inter­ national relations from legal, political, historical, anthropological, and philosophical perspectives. This interdisciplinary nature and wide­ranging scope of E.MA reflect the benefits of true European inter­university cooperation in human rights education.

Through readings of texts by late Enlightenment and Romantic-era writers and savants, the dissertation tells the story of how literature and science became distinct entities, with distinct objects and distinct ends, by the latter half of the nineteenth century. Literary writers with natural philosophic ambitions react, I show, to the rise of Newtonian mathematical physics as an epistemic ideal among the élite mathematical physicists of the Académie des sciences, answering the growing prestige of precise quantification in the sciences with anti-mathematical rhetoric and alternative modes of quantification.

    Revue Française de Civilisation Britannique, vol. XXI, n°1, juillet 2016 DOI : 10.4000/rfcb.840 The Contemporary Conversation about the French Connection “Liberté, égalité, fraternité”: Neoliberal Equality and “Non-brothers” Réjane Sénac Introduction 1 As the global crisis that began in 2008 takes the shape of a lost decade, Western neo- liberal democracies appear, more than ever, to be reproducing social and economic inequalities2. The promotion of parity and diversity in France must be scrutinised in this context. More specifically, this article aims to grasp what contemporary uses of parity and diversity say about the principle of equality in 21st Century French society. From this perspective, the resilience of gender, race and social inequalities, will not be seen as a mere imperfection in implementing the French principles of “Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité” in a “non-ideal theory”3, but as an illustration of the ambivalence inherent to these very principles. The promotion of parity and diversity will thus be analysed as a case study to understand the dilemmas affecting French republican thinking about equality4 and the challenge of ensuring that singular individuals become de jure and de facto equal citizens. The principles of justification for parity and diversity will then be analysed in order to shed light on the dilemma faced by a republican equality which excluded those who were not considered as brothers5 in the name of a gender and racially based hierarchy. France embodies the dilemma of a principle of equality that promotes Human Rights, the exclusion of women from active citizenship and colonization. 2 Since the Paris terrorists attacks perpetrated in January and November 2015, these dilemmas have become crucial to the French republican order, as they determine to what extent this order can accommodate differences without breaching equality, and (re)generate the inclusion of all categories of citizens.
