On The Fall of Public Man.
[Patreon Exclusive]
We continue working through the 2024/25 syllabus and the first theme, The Future of Place. We ask is politics possible without a sense of place. Here we discuss chapter 13, "Community becomes uncivilised", and deal with listener questions.
How does the changed relationship between public and private impact notions of community and of place?
How does the maintenance of impersonal relations signify 'civility'?
Is impersonality really the summation of all the worst evils of industrial capitalism?
What is wrong with yearning for community, or specifically “love of the ghetto, especially the middle-class ghetto”
How does "fratricide" become "logical" when people use intimate relations as a basis for social relations? Why is fratricide "system-maintaining"?
