The Current Crisis Through the Lens of History

SERIES TITLE
Volcano: A symposium to discuss and respond to the global crisis

Speakers: Timothy Clarke, Antonio Negri, David Priestland

What kind of crisis are we in? With what can we compare it historically? How should we portray, research and combat it in our work? Are the powerful in society capable of rising to its challenges? How can the weak, who are most affected by it, organise themselves? Can we as symposium participants find a common language to help us move forward?
