The Thinking Mind Podcast: Psychiatry & Psychotherapy

Interview #10: Social Media and YOU (with Dr. Niall Docherty)

Aug 7, 2020
58:27

Dr. Niall Docherty has recently completed his PhD at the Centre for Critical Theory, University of Nottingham, and will be pursuing his postdoctoral research within the Social Media Collective, Microsoft Research New England.

His thesis examines the material and discursive construction of Facebook’s ideal users, linking normative designations of “healthy” usership to neoliberal histories of governance through habit.

 Niall has a BA in Politics and an MA in Cultural Studies from Goldsmiths, University of London, specialising in political theory, modern philosophy and governmentality studies.
