This inaugural seminar will continue to tap into and reinforce the need and presence of more insight into contemporary radical philosophies in their relationship with education. This course also reinforces and works on the strands of interests generated by philosophy, cultural studies, gender and trans-cultural studies to name a few.
Our seminar features a lecture by eminent speaker, Ernesto Laclau, the foremost theorist, well known for his work on hegemony and post-Marxism.

Laclau will address and respond to questions from students and educators discussing his latest work: On Populist Reason. Laclau has strategically re-shaped and philosophically reoriented a whole tradition of political and socio-economic thinking, and his work on Emancipation, Contingency, along with his critique of Pragmatism and his intense, yet
critical, engagement with Deconstruction has drastically changed the horizon of radical thought.
