2nd Webinar: “Disposition to sociability and pseudospeciation in group identities”
12th march 2021 - at 18.00cet
Zoom Video Conference
"If we can hypothesize a species-specific disposition to sociability and cooperation, together with the innate tendency to limit destructiveness towards members of the same species, then we can explain the formation of group identities as pseudospeciations that build “scapegoats”, a monsterization by which any kind of violence can be practiced up to annihilation. Therefore the formation of groups and different types of masses responds to the double thrust of altruistic cooperation and / or the defeat-destruction of the other enemy, misrecognized as human."
The webinar entitled “Disposition to sociability and pseudospeciation in group identities”, is the second meeting of the series “Subject and masses. Psychoanalysis and the politics of the unconscious“.
Friday 12th March at 18.00 CET.
Speaker: Romano Màdera
Discussants: Luciano De Fiore and Franco Lolli
Moderator: Raffaele Bracalenti
The seminars in streaming will be held on the Video Conferencing ZOOM platform. Simultaneous translation service will be available.
