#agonism — Public Fediverse posts

"contrary to what post-political theorists want us to believe, what we are currently witnessing is not the disappearance of the political in its adversarial dimension but something different. What is happening is that nowadays the political is played out in the moralregister. In other words, it still consists in a we/they discrimination, but the we/they, instead of being defined with political categories, is now established in moral terms. In place of a struggle between 'right and left' we are faced with a struggle between 'right and wrong'."
- Chantal Mouffe, On the Political, 2005.

Anyone here have a good reading list for Bonnie #Honig and her theory of pluralistic agonism? Need to get a reference set put together. #agonism #pluralisticagonism #research

Our friends in the Luxembourg Centre for Contemporary and Digital History (C²DH) have an interesting CfP out!

Check it out in the link below 👇

There are concerns that GPT3 was released without much thought for ethics accuracy & accountability. Fair.

But what is the alternative? That it remain in a shadowy room, new capacities that only *they* can engage and understand first hand? And then *those people and friends* decide what an ethical design looks like?

Having a messy public beta is the /condition of possibility/ for a public debate about how AI can be ethical and accountable.

@fasterandworse Well, I suppose I can always block you for eternity... 🤣 🤣 😘

critique is the name of the game. note the #agonism in my #introduction

@[email protected] @YBenkler good Q, inviting Qs! ;).
p.s. to introduce & hashtag a few good related terms and book, for anyone unfamiliar (I know @schock knows): "Adversarial Design…evokes and engages political issues…in the construction of objects, interfaces, networks, spaces and events. Most importantly, #AdversarialDesign does the work in expressing and enabling #agonism."
"Term was first used by #CarloDiSalvo [GIT, @cdisalvo.@twitter] in 2012 book Adversarial Design.

Every year, I try to participate at Congregation, a small un-conference in Ireland held in...Cong.

"Agonistic Purpose"
