This configuration raises the question of the relationship between social justice, growth regimes and the Anthropocene. Indeed, we are now forced to question the sustainability of forms of social protection that depend on productivity policies. For political philosophy, this is an important turning point insofar as the question of “the environment” spills over into the organisation of work, risk management, planetary limits, and the discipline of capital.
PIERRE CHARBONNIER is a philosopher and research fellow at the Centre national de recherche scientifique (CNRS) in Paris as well as at Sciences Po’s Centre d’études européennes et de politique comparée. He specialises in the history, epistemology and forms of power associated with the government of nature in modern societies. His work has initially focused on the history of social anthropology and the critiques of the nature-society dualism that structures classical sociological rationality. He then investigated the historical relationship between the gradual self-assertion of political autonomy in modern Europe and the transformations of the underlying material base in these societies. This work, which constituted his habilitation, has appeared in French under the title Abondance et liberté. Une histoire environnementale des idées politiques (La Découverte, 2020). The German edition Überfluss und Freiheit. Eine ökologische Geschichte der politischen Ideen will be published by Fischer in May 2022.
CORINNA MIETH is professor of practical philosophy and philosophy of law at the Ruhr-University of Bochum (Germany) since 2010. She completed her PhD at the University of Tübingen in 2002 and her habilitation at the University of Bonn in 2009. From September 2020 to June 2021, she was a fellow at the Wissenschaftskolleg zu Berlin (WIKO). From 2012 to 2020 she was a member of the Board of Directors of the Institute for Advanced Study in the Humanities in Essen (Germany). In 2011 she co-initiated the international and interdisciplinary master’s programme “Ethics – Economics, Law, and Politics” at the Ruhr-University of Bochum. Her philosophical research is focused on moral philosophy, political philosophy, philosophy of law, ethics and aesthetics. Her main areas of specialisation are Kant’s moral philosophy, John Rawls, positive duties, human rights and human dignity, global justice, consumer ethics and political utopianism.
ABOUT CARTE BLANCHE IV
Exchanges have always been an essential component of the KWI’s activities. We are part of a regional consortium of universities in the Ruhr area and cooperate closely with our local partner institutions. At the same time, our work thrives on an international outlook that taps into debates and developments in the social sciences and humanities abroad. In the new online instalment of our Carte Blanche lecture series, the KWI will provide a platform to bring these two networks into conversation. In each session, an international guest speaker will present original research, which will then be discussed by a scholar from the University Alliance Ruhr.
