Tabea Söregi hält einen Vortrag über das Sterben von nicht-menschlichen und menschlichen Tieren beim Kompostieren bei der Konferenz "Zoopolitics of Life and Death."
Organized by: The Center for Critical Studies (CCS) and Institute of Philosophy and Art History (IPK) conjointly with THE NEW INSTITUTE Centre for Environmental Humanities (NICHE) at Ca’Foscari University of Venice.
This two-day international conference brings together graduate students and early scholars from the Humanities and Social Sciences to critically address the multifaceted issue of politics of life and death of nonhuman animals.
The concepts of zoopolitics and biopolitics have traditionally been addressed separately, based respectively on a distinction of zoé and bios. These, as two different Greek terms for “life” have been used, in the first case, to merely refer to the lives of nonhuman animals, and the second to a distinctively human form of life. However, these terms need to be articulated together to address the multispecies composition of contemporary natureculture assemblages and their lively capital.
Following the principles of Critical Animal Studies, the conference thus adopt a holistic approach to confront oppressions, shared exploitation and vulnerability, but also to put liveability and flourishing according to a total liberation framework to the forefront.
