NSSR Philosophy Graduate Conference on Violence

The annual Philosophy Grad Conference has a long standing tradition at The New School and beyond. It seeks to foster an environment for exchange, critical engagement and mutual inspiration.

The topic of this years conference is violence. We will center research whose aim is to elucidate, complicate, critique, comment, struggle with, reason with, reject, or problematize notions of violence, its causes, and effects. Our hope is to create a space for critical discussion in which diverse voices can speak and be heard in order to better understand our contemporary situation and all of its emotional and theoretical complexities.

Please stay tuned for updates regarding selected keynote speakers, student speakers, and scheduling. Should you have any questions regarding this event please feel free to email us at [email protected]
