Workshop

En el marco de la interpretación del conflicto y posconflicto en Colombia, los medios de comunicación juegan un papel muy importante en la producción de información y la creación de vínculos y rupturas políticas. Cumplen la función no sólo de transmitir versiones de diferentes realidades pertenecientes a partidos, movimientos sociales, intereses económicos, sino que actúan como partícipes directos en la construcción de la opinión pública y la toma de decisiones, a través de múltiples estrategias discursivas.

Join us for a discussion of ‘Hegemony and Socialist Strategy Today’. This Master Class for research students explores the relevance of Hegemony and Socialist Strategy for analysing contemporary politics and society. Participants will have a chance to develop their understanding of the theory of hegemony, of the method of discourse theory and how to apply it, and of Laclau’s and Mouffe’s works on populism.

In this workshop, we seek to explore how a decidedly materialist approach to discourse can be put into practice. Bringing together contributions from a range of disciplines, we will think through the methodological implications materialism has for Discourse Studies, and vice versa.

Novels and short stories that depict research on climate change and/or its ecological and social ramifications have been gaining in prominence. Examples are Barbara Kingsolver’s Flight Behavior, Nathaniel Rich’s Odds Against Tomorrow, Michael Crichton’s State of Fear, Ian McEwan’s Solar, Jeannette Winterson’s The Stone Goods, Kim Stanley Robinson’s Science in the Capital Trilogy, as well as the short story anthology I’m with the Bears. In the U.S.
