After four months in Asia, Void Network continues the tour in Brighton to share experiences and understandings and encourage people to sustain Gen Z’s heroism. Whether Baby Boomers, Gen X, Millennials, or Gen Z, we should follow the lead taken by recent uprisings. All human beings are increasingly power-less within nation-states armed to the teeth with weapons of mass destruction. Global warming advances daily. As Gen Z has so remarkably illustrated, our most effective action is militant street protests.

Just when we thought that the world was going completely to hell, Gen Z uprisings swept country after country, demanding life over death. Whether the issue was elite corruption in Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Nepal, and the Philippines, police brutality in Indonesia, Israeli genocide in Gaza, increased taxes in Kenya, mandatory pension plans in Peru, scandalously underfunded hospitals in Morocco, or a lack of basic services like electricity and water in Madagascar, a new generation has emerged in the struggle for better lives.

Fighting for Knowledge: Enacting Equality

Lecture and Open Public Dialogue with Steven Corcoran

Philosophy, politics, art, science – all are tied through the knot of education. It is no wonder that during social uprisings and radical episodes of human history, education becomes a philosophical, political and artistic question. Indeed, today’s neoliberal intensified commodification of education has only laid the ground work for the authoritarian turn of the Greek government, with its Higher Education Bill and permanent deployment of the state Police forces on university campuses. The heart of the question is of course the relationship between knowledge and authority, ignorance and competence. Plato was the first to insist that education must be by truths, as opposed to the sophistic claims to knowledge that prevailed. In the nineteenth century, revolutionary French educator Joseph Jacotot, whose exploits were brilliantly translated into our times by Jacques Rancière in his paradoxically titled book, The Ignorant Schoolmaster, overturns the Platonic order. Learning is not about the one who knows more teaching the one who knows less; it is about verifying an axiom of the equality of intelligences. Here pedagogical practice usefully informs philosophical practice. Key to both approaches is the idea that education cannot be contained within the authority of an institution. In this talk I would like to explore the philosophical tenets of these approaches and invite a discussion around novel approaches to education within the contemporary neoliberal landscape.

Steven Corcoran is the secretary of Parrhesia: School of Philosophy, Berlin, a non-profit educational organization devoted to philosophy as a public practice. He is the editor of The Badiou Dictionary and has edited/translated over 20 works of philosophy, including, among others, by Alain Badiou (Conditions, Polemics and The Idea of Communism), by Jacques Rancière (Dissensus, Hatred of Democracy, The Edges of Fiction, What Times Are We Living In?), by Frantz Fanon (Alienation and Freedom), and three recent works by Achille Mbembe (Necropolitics, The Earthly Community, and Brutalism). His current projects include a book on egalitarian political organization and imagination, and a special issue on the thought of Jacques Rancière for Continental Thought and Theory.

Anarchist Social Struggles in Greece-

open public dialogue with anarchist members from Void Network from Athens

Friday 25/1/2019–Cowley Club | Brighton

Greece became a world news report center during the revolt of December 2008 after the assassination of 15 years old boy Alexis Grigoropoulos, by the Greek police in Exarchia square, the stronghold of anarchists and leftists in Athens for the last 40 years. The global economic crises brought Greece again in global news focus from 2010 to 2012 as the collapse of Greek economy activated a general social revolt with the participation of the majority of the population and a serial of social experimentations in self-organization, horizontal assemblies, general strikes, mutual help movements and confrontation with authorities. After the election of left party “Syriza” in the government in 2015 and the appearance of neo-nazi party Golden Dawn the social movements continue to offer alive paradigms of resistance. In our days Greece appears as the country with one of the strongest anarchist movements in the world.

Two members of Void Network [https://voidnetwork.gr], Sissy Doutsiou (actress, published poet and essayist) and Tasos Sagris, co-editor of the books “We are an Image from the Future- The Greek Revolt of Dec. 2008 (AK Press 2010) and “From Democracy to Freedom” (Crimethinc, 2018) will create a public dialogue about social movements in Greece as also about the international co-ordination of the struggles.

As English society face Brexit and European and Greek national elections come closer the talk will take the form of direct Q&A and will include analysis about democracy, far-right and left governments, investigating emancipatory possibilities in the self-organized social projects,  neighborhood assemblies, horizontal anarchist groups and federations, searching for tools and methodologies of creating and defending social centers, solidarity networks and mutual help projects, empowering the fight against the state and capitalism, make antifascist struggles, anarchofeminism and LGBTQI movements stronger, talking about the anarchist movement in Greece and the world today as also share an open invitation for international co-ordination
