Theoretical contributions on anarchist theory, critical phenomenology, political theology and political economy
Duration: ongoing
Project Management:Jun.-Prof. Dr. Simon Runkel
Research focus: Geographical imaginaries, Security and Freedom
Content
With recourse to the history of ideas in geography and with a proximity to hermeneutic and phenomenological approaches, a critical geography of the social is being conceptually developed further. Of particular interest are political philosophy and theology in order to explore the intersections between atmopolitics, biopolitics, geopolitics and pyropolitics in the Anthropocene/Capitalocene and to make it fruitful for progressive perspectives and critical geographies.
