LOCATION:Deakin Burwood Campus\, Burwood Highway\, Australia\, 3195
DESCRIPTION:<p>We live in times of increasing political polarisation\, wherein forms of Rightist mobilisation long considered impossible after 1945 are re-emerging across the globe\, and new prospective &ldquo\;organic intellectuals&rdquo\; appeal to specifically philosophical sources to shape\, vindicate\, and direct these &lsquo\;movement(s)&rsquo\;.&nbsp\; It has often been thought that the antiliberal Right was anti-intellectual\, and that its populism speaks against any real political and philosophical ideas informing their movements.&nbsp\; However\, from shortly after 1789\, reactionaries against modern ideals of liberty\, equality and cosmopolitanism have developed theoretical perspectives to justify their hostility to liberalism\, democracy\, feminism\, social democracy\, socialism\, and multiculturalism.&nbsp\; This event will critically examine the ideas of today&rsquo\;s New or Alt-Right thinkers\, and their uncomfortable crossovers with more established philosophical perspectives\, led by thinkers like Nietzsche\, Schmitt and Heidegger.&nbsp\; Our keynote\, Professor Ron Beiner (Toronto) is the author of one of only a few studies of these increasingly troubling and important phenomena\, and our discussant\, Professor Tamir Bar-on (Monterray) is a leading expert on the European and global New Right.</p>
