The research group "Media Systems and Media Organisation" of the Institute of Media Studies at Paderborn University invites all interested parties to the seminar "Fascism: Critical Theory Perspectives." The event will be held in English and take place on Tuesday, 28 January, from 6 to 8 p.m. in room E2.145. The seminar aims to promote discussions around the theorisation and understanding of fascism. Various theoretical approaches will be used to provide insights into the dynamics and structures of fascism, neo-fascism and digital fascism from a historical and contemporary perspective.
A highlight of the event will be the contributions of two international guest researchers. André Brand?o from the Federal University of Bahia, Brazil, will present his research on "Neo-fascism and digitalisation". Tatiana Fernández Paredes from the Open University of Catalonia (Internet Interdisciplinary Institute - IN3) will give the lecture "Theorising Fascism with Henri Lefebvre". Both were part of the research group "Media Systems and Media Organisation" led by Prof. Dr. Christian Fuchs.
Fuchs will give the introductory lecture "What is fascism?", laying the foundation for the subsequent discussions and contributions. Interested parties from the student, academic and external environment are invited to take part in this interdisciplinary and international dialogue. The event offers the opportunity to engage with current research approaches and have in-depth discussions about the meaning and impact of fascism today. Registration is not necessary.
