SUMMARY:Puffin Interview Series with Joe Chuman: 'Twilight of the Self: The Decline of the Individual in Late Capitalism' with Michael J. Thompson (Online)
DESCRIPTION:In his work\, Twilight of the Self: The Decline of the Individual in Late Capitalism\, political theorist Michael J. Thompson argues that modern societies are witnessing a decline in one of the core building blocks of modernity: the autonomous self. \nFar from being an illusion of the Enlightenment\, Thompson contends that the individual is a defining feature of the project to build a modern democratic culture and polity. One of the central reasons for its demise in recent decades has been the emergence of what he calls the “cybernetic society\,” a cohesive totalization of the social logics of the institutional spheres of economy\, culture and polity. These logics have been progressively defined by the imperatives of economic growth and technical-administrative management of labor and consumption\, routinizing patterns of life\, practices\, and consciousness throughout the culture. Evolving out of the neoliberal transformation of economy and society since the 1980s\, the cybernetic society has transformed how that the individual is articulated in contemporary society. Thompson examines the various pathologies of the self and consciousness that result from this form of socialization—such as hyper-reification\, alienated moral cognition\, false consciousness\, and the withered ego—in new ways to demonstrate the extent of deformation of modern selfhood. Only with a more robust\, more socially embedded concept of autonomy as critical agency can we begin to reconstruct the principles of democratic individuality and community. \nFREE in person at the Puffin Cultural Forum in Teaneck\, NJ (RSVP Required) and livestreaming on YouTube below.\nBuy the book here or your wherever books are sold \n \n\n\nMichael J. Thompson is Professor of Political Theory at William Paterson University. He is the author of The Politics of Inequality (2007)\, The Domestication of Critical Theory (2016)\, and\, most recently\, The Specter of Babel: A Reconstruction of Political Judgment (2020). \nAbout the Interview Series & Dr. Chuman: \nThe Puffin Cultural Forum is proud to present our “Puffin Interview Series with Dr. Joe Chuman.” On the first Sunday of every month Dr. Chuman will delve into and explore the work of renowned authors through meaningful dialogue in an intimate interview format. There will be an opportunity for audiences to ask their own questions during a Q&A session. Dr. Chuman recently retired from his post as the leader of the Ethical Culture Society of Bergen County after forty-six years. He has taught at Columbia University\, Hunter College\, and the United Nations University for Peace in Costa Rica. His works have been published in the New York Times\, The Humanist\, Free Inquiry\, Humanistic Judaism\, The Hill and many other periodicals.
