🕒 Come along at 3pm TODAY (UK time) to our #CPCCGWebinar with Julia Behrman of @northwesternu. Julia will explore how shifting norms around having #children, measured through a new #US #surveyexperiment, reveal growing ambiguity and #individualisation in #childbearing expectations.

"Manufactured risks are the product of human activity." Ulrich Beck

" A "risk society"
is a sociological concept describing a stage of modernity where society is increasingly defined by and organized around managing the hazards and insecurities it has produced itself through modernization and industrialization.

Self-produced risks: The primary source of risk is not nature, but human actions and the unintended consequences of modernization itself.

Individualization: Individuals are increasingly forced to confront these risks personally, with a greater emphasis on individual choice and responsibility in the face of larger, systemic problems

Ulrich Beck defines it as "a systematic way of dealing with hazards and insecurities induced and introduced by modernisation itself". "

" The Study of Existential Risk
frames the rises and falls of civilisation around the idea of the “Goliath”, a hierarchy that dominates labour and energy through coercion and violence."

"Our research shows how there are nascent attempts to embed citizens into decision making by re-plumbing democracy, flattening hierarchies and constructing more dynamic feedback loops that have real consequence."

New📜preprint from the @idealab out today! We propose that epigenetic mechanisms mediate the realization of individualized niches. Furthermore, we suggest that the realization of individualized niches can contribute to both the emergence and maintenance of epigenetic variation. This opinion piece is the result of a large collaboration within the DFG-funded NC³ collaborative research center - A Novel Synthesis of Individualisation across Behaviour, Ecology and Evolution: Niche Choice, Niche Conformance, Niche Construction https://www.uni-bielefeld.de/fakultaeten/biologie/forschung/verbuende/sfb_nc3/ ). It is now available on EcoEvoRxiv: https://doi.org/10.32942/X2Z34V #ecology #evolution #plasticity #epigenetics #individualisation

The anxiety of individualisation

From On Anxiety by Reneta Salecl, loc 2092:

The Other is for the subject always ‘anxiogen’, since it constantly forces the subject to ask ‘Who am I?’, and especially, ‘Who am I for the Other?’ However, as this book has shown, in post-industrial societies, the subject is also perceived as a self-inventor and as someone who is actually freer from the constraints of other people than our predecessors. So if, on the one hand the subject is still concerned about the question about the desire of the Other (i.e. how others regard them and how they are regarded in society as a whole), on the other hand, the subject is under pressure to make a choice about his or her life independently of social constraints.

Die Menschheit tritt in den Höhepunkt der #Individualisation ein, die ihre größtmögliche Fragmentierung bedeutet. #Selbstbestimmung meint hier gegen alle #Vernunft, der Natur und den Intellekt seinen gefühlsbedingten Willen durchzusetzen. Es ist zugleich Höhepunkt der Illusion des Getrenntsein mit allem anderen, denn es gilt den eigenen Lebensplan, die eigene "Bestimmung" durchzusetzen oder zu scheitern, weil die Welt dafür (noch) nicht "stimmig" ist. Deshalb greift auch selbstbestimmte #Einsamkeit um sich.

Die gleichzeitig auftretende Bewegung einer moralisierenden, pluralistischen Gesellschaft ist nur der Reflex, die Sehnsucht nach dem durch Individualisation verlorenen Paradies der körperlichen, seelischen und geistigen Einheit mit der Schöpfung und einem Schöpfer. Denn dieser #Moralismus, die Erzwingung von Vielfalt will nur die Grenzen der eigenen Individualisation vor dem Einfluss allgemeiner Ganzheit in der Verschiedenheit schützen.

Der Fehler hierbei ist, dass nicht das durch Selbsterkenntnis geläuterte Bewusstsein die Einheit anstrebt, sondern nur ein Gefühl der Einheit in einer bestimmten Gruppe, die den eigenen Willen nicht im Wege steht. Diese Einheit des Gefühls, darum sprunghaft, kurzzeitig, intolerant, soll durch Bevormundung, Belehrung, Erziehung und letztlich #Autoritarismus erzwungen werden, was ebenso sinnlos ist, wie erzwungene Liebe.
