Event type:
talk

Increasing social inequality, aggravation of living standards, short-sighted environmental policy and the violation of human rights are all facts pointing to the increasing extremes of the conditions of life. These conditions are not cultural dysfunctions, but are fundamentally connected to the processes of global capital to systematically exploit the environment.
Re-Articulacija project members Marina Grzinic and Sebastjan Leban invite the festival audience to join political philosophers Sefik Seki Tatlic and Madina Tlostanova, along with transmediale 2009 Award nominee Petko Dourmana to engage in a session of collective research to counter contemporary global forms of exploitation, control, censorship and expropriation.
