Dear Colleagues and Friends
Please join us for a CCRI-APS Webinar: 13th May 4.30-6pm "Psychosocial Perspectives on Contemporary Fascism” with Jacob Johanssen and Anthony Faramelli
The session will be chaired by Jonathan Wyatt and Nini Fang.
The past five years have been marked by a growing visibility of the threat posed by the extreme Right and the global birth of the so-called manosphere and the Alt-Right movements. To address these pressing issues requires a psychosocial approach, that is an approach that is able to analyse both unconscious and subjective micro-fascist formations as well as the way in which micro-fascism scales up and infects social bodies. Drawing on psychoanalysis, schizoanalysis and affect theory, this webinar will examine the growth of contemporary fascisms, the role digital media plays in their propagation and how online extremism manifests as offline violence.In this webinar, Anthony will share his work on: “everybody wants to be a fascist online: Schizoanalysis and the Alt-Right", and Jacob on “Incels and fantasies of destroying/desiring the Other”.
