Reading list: School of Common Knowledge 2024

 

To accompany the first edition of the School of Common Knowledge, L’Internationale Online is publishing a reading list. Comprising contributions suggested by the School’s speakers and hosts, the reading list offers contextual material for those both present in Zagreb and Ljubljana and for the platform’s wider readership. The reading list will be updated before, during and after the School.

The curriculum for this pilot programme focuses on two proposals:

–Exploring situated organisations as actors in the (art) world and as sites from which to speak about translocal connections. The programme will challenge universalism and globalism in culture as forces that serve particular class and cultural interests.

–Investigating and co-learning how to resist and transform the alliance of neo-liberal and neo-fascist forces that have established huge influence in world politics and its military, economic and cultural policies.
