Luhmann & Cybernetic Identities w/ Hans-Georg Moeller

Hans-Georg Moeller opens our series on the thought of Niklas Luhmann.

We also discuss the theory in an up-to-date context, discussing Prof. Moeller's newest book, "You and Your Profile" which deals with identity in the age of social media.

Strikes & Violence w/ Neil Coetzer

I talk to Neil Coetzer about the violent state of labour disputes in South Africa. Not only does labour make itself guilty of violence, but sometimes the capital-state retaliates. We consider difficult questions like where to draw the line on violence, and what are the underlying structural inequalities that need to be addressed.
