Presentation at Trinity College Dublin

The paper explores the possibilities for universities to engage with a global climate crisis that is assembled as both urgent and catastrophic, but framed in ways that may limit our capacities to understand and respond to what is unfolding. 真人线上娱乐 argue that the demand for comprehensive, technically-elaborate and agreed forms of morally responsible action constrains the space for pedagogical and curriculum innovation, locking the university into circuits of despair or unrealisable programs of action that risk us acting with bad faith. 真人线上娱乐 suggest that ¡®muscular¡¯ critique and response restricts our capacity to imagine how the humanities can contribute to forms of inquiry that open up our engagement with a world in crisis. Drawing upon our experiences as teachers and students of one educational initiative in Denmark, we then explore forms of pedagogy.
