Postdigital Resonance
As the boundaries between the digital and the analog become increasingly blurred, our experiences are pluralized and datafied in a web of constant connectivity. This web fundamentally transforms our perception of the world, altering ‘our relationship to time and space, to other people, to the objects around us, and ultimately to ourselves, to our body and our mental dispositions’ (Rosa 2019 : 1). Hartmut Rosa ( 2019 : 39–40) presents three ways o…
Laptop Orchestra
This study discusses the Postdigital Laptop Ensemble at the University of Siegen (PULSE) as a model postdigital resonant educational space. Situated within postdigital discourse, the course treats laptops and portable digital devices as musical instruments within a hybrid classroom, fostering collaborative, creative, and embodied learning experiences. Drawing on Hartmut Rosa’s theory of resonance , this study examines how spatial design and techn…
The Early Marx
This chapter examines Karl Marx's work prior to 1846, with particular emphasis on his concept of alienation. Although Marx borrows heavily from Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel and from Ludwig Feuerbach, his background in the philosophy and culture of ancient Greece is an important factor in his early essentialism. The early Marx rejects Hegel's theory that the state represents an ethical community. For Marx, communism is the movement of the exploit…
Response to ‘After development? In defence of sustainability’
This is a reply to:Hannis, Mike. 2017. “After development? In defence of sustainability.” Global Discourse. 7 (1): 28–38. http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/23269995.2017.1300404
Global Solidarity
Explores the potential of globalisation to provide the conditions for a harmonious global community Lawrence Wilde introduces the concept of global solidarity and explains how it relates to nationalism, gender, religion and culture. Looking to the future, he explores the politics of global solidarity and the conditions required for its development. Solidarity has been a mobilising word since entering the political vocabulary in the mid-19th centu…
Marx, Morality, and the Global Justice Debate
Marx’s disdain for moral discourse is well known, and it is therefore hardly surprising that he barely rates a mention in the global justice debate that has developed apace over the last two decades. However, it is questionable that the debate, addressing as it does systemic inequalities in power, should simply ignore Marx’s analysis of exploitation in capitalism and its implicit ethical grounding in the alienation thesis. Conventional Marxist po…

The Ethical Challenge of Touraine's ‘Living Together’
In Can We Live Together? Alain Touraine combines a consummate analysis of crucial social tensions in contemporary societies with a strong normative appeal for a new emancipatory ‘Subject’ capable of overcoming the twin threats of atomisation or authoritarianism. He calls for a move from ‘politics to ethics’ and then from ethics back to politics to enable the new Subject to make a reality out of the goals of democracy and solidarity. However, he h…
The Concept of Solidarity
The concept of solidarity has been relatively neglected by social scientists since Durkheim's pioneering work in the late 19 th century. The discipline of politics has been guilty of overlooking this ‘subjective’ element of community life, but recent works by Stjernø and Brunkhorst reflect a growing awareness of the theoretical significance of the concept. Whereas early liberal attempts to theorise solidarity took the nation state to be the appro…
Solidarity in Europe
Europe and the 're-regulation of world society
Jürgen Habermas is one of a number of left-leaning social theorists who have talked enthusiastically about the prospects of the European Union becoming a socialmodel 'alternative' to global neoliberalism. This article supports his goal, but rejects his idea that a form of civic solidarity allegedly developed at national level should be expanded to the European sphere. A new European polity may play a progressive role, but only when social movemen…
The Search for Reconciliation in E. L. Doctorow's City of God
E. L. Doctorow's novel City of God is constructed around a crisis of faith experienced by an Episcopalian minister who eventually converts to Judaism. Within and around this personal story unfolds a fascinating array of moral and spiritual dilemmas which raise provocative questions about the role of religion in modern society and its relationship to secular ethical thought. It is argued here that the novel can be understood as an appeal for recon…
Erich Fromm and the Quest for Solidarity
"This is the first full-length analysis of the social and political thought of Erich Fromm, the best-selling social psychologist who was a hugely influential figure on the Left in the 1960s and 1970s. Fromm is the only modern communitarian theorist to base his work on a strong normative conception of the human essence. His radical humanism offers an ethical foundation for the critique of existing society and the development of credible alternativ…
A ‘Radical Humanist’ Approach to the Concept of Solidarity
Solidarity’ conjures up positive images of the strength of togetherness and community, but in practice it is experienced by groups when confronted by a real or perceived threat from other groups. The ideal of a universal human solidarity appears tenuous and flimsy. However, Richard Rorty and Axel Honneth have attempted, in different ways, to bring this ideal under philosophical consideration. Their treatment of human solidarity is flawed by their…
The significance of maternalism in the evolution of fromm's social thought1
During his years as a member of the Frankfurt School, Erich Fromm developed a strong interest in the idea that there were distinctive male and female character orientations. Drawing on the positive evaluation of matriarchy made in the nineteenth century by the Swiss anthropologist J. J. Bachofen, Fromm argued that a “matricentric” psychic structure was more conducive to socialism than the patricentric structure which had predominated in capitalis…

Marxism and Human Nature Sean Sayers
Marxism and Human Nature Sean Sayers London: Routledge, 1998 Reviewed by Lawrence Wilde Sean Sayers has worked tirelessly through the years defending the rationality of Marx's dialectic and its affinity to Hegel's philosophy, and this humanist dialectic shines through this series of articles on human nature and the related questions of work, progress, and morality. Most of the articles were first published in the 1980s or early 1990s and are revi…
In search of solidarity
Examines the relationship between the humanistic psychological ethics of Erich Fromm & his commitment to socialist politics. The concept of >social character The Fear of Freedom Man for Himself One World< – are introduced. It is argued that Fromm endorses a variety of strategies from old & new social movements that challenge the value structures of modern capitalist society. In conclusion, the claim is pressed that Fromm's social thought, develop…
The creatures, too, must become free
In order to establish what it is that makes us essentially human Marx, like Aristotle, distinguishes between humans and other animals. The distinction rests on how we produce, and it remains defensible, despite recent commentaries which argue that it involves a dis respectful view of animals. Marx's humanism involves a naturalism which is incompatible with purely instrumental attitudes towards animals. Just as his critique of capitalism exposes t…

The Politics of Transition
The Cambridge Companion to Marx
Marx was a highly original and polymathic thinker, unhampered by disciplinary boundaries, whose intellectual influence has been enormous. Yet in the wake of the collapse of Marxism-Leninism in Eastern Europe the question arises as to how important his work really is for us now. An important dimension of this volume is to place Marx's writings in their historical context and to separate what he actually said from what others (in particular, Engels…

Modern European Socialism
Class analysis and the politics of new social movements
If progress is to be mode towards the more widespread development of class consciousness, socialist theory and practice needs to take account of class aspirations expressed through new social movements. In opposition to post Marxist' perspectives, Wilde argues for the relevance of class analysis to an understanding of the emancipatory potential of the new social movements
