O seminário trabalhará com a relação entre estética, política e história. Não no sentido estrito da propagação das posições de engajamento político dos artistas, mas no da produção de uma política do sensível (ou de uma “partilha do sensível”, para usarmos a expressão cunhada pelo filósofo francês Jacques Rancière). A ideia de uma política do sensível opera como uma abertura ética, presente em uma obra de arte, que rompe com os lugares-comuns do cotidiano, esvaziado pelo espetáculo dos meios de comunicação em massa. Ao recolher criticamente a tradição revolucionária esquecida, os artistas criam as condições que permitem a produção de novos sentidos comuns, ativos e críticos. Assim, as clássicas revoluções sociais, antes vistas como questões datadas, esvaziadas de sua efetividade política, ganham força novamente.
Local: Teatro Paulo Autran – SESC-Pinheiros – Rua Paes Leme, 195 – Pinheiros/SP

The Capitalist Mode of Power: Past, Present, Future
The Second Annual Forum on Capital as Power
20-21 October 2011, York University, Toronto
Call for Papers
Abstract Submission Deadline: June 30, 2011
The annual conference series organized by the Forum on Capital as Power brings together a diverse range of radically minded people interested in exploring the concept of power as a basis for re-thinking and re-searching value, capital and accumulation. As the name of our forum suggests, we think that the Capital as Power framework pioneered by Jonathan Nitzan and Shimshon Bichler offers a promising new, but by no means the only, alternative for pursuing radical and innovative research in political economy. By conceptualizing capital as the symbolic quantification of power, and capitalism as a mode of power, this framework challenges the foundational bifurcations between politics/economics, ‘real’/‘nominal’ and state/capital upon which conventional theories of capitalism rest. And by re-casting accumulation as a process of differential capitalization, this framework also offers research tools for empirically exploring capitalism; something that liberal and Marxist theories, anchored respectively in problematic units of ‘utility’ and ‘abstract labour’, have difficulty providing. This combined focus on theoretical-empirical research is, for us, of paramount importance. It points the way to a more democratic form of knowledge production. And it corresponds with what we believe should be a guiding maxim of radical praxis: that in order to change the world, we first have to adequately interpret and explain it.

Re-Thinking Economics in a Time of Economic Distress
International Confederation of Associations for Pluralism in Economics (ICAPE)
University of Massachusetts, Amherst, MA – USA – Nov. 11-13, 2011
The 2007-08 financial crisis and subsequent economic downturn have raised many questions about how well prevailing economic approaches identify and explain pressing economic problems and suggest sound ways to solve them. Exploring what needs to change in economics and identifying productive paths forward are the central themes of ICAPE’s 3rd international research conference. Founded in 1993, ICAPE is an association of associations committed to promoting healthy diversity in approaches to producing economic knowledge. For the 2011 conference, we invite proposals for papers or sessions from all strands of scholarship that examine topics of cross-cutting interest for creating a more robust, socially-valuable body of economic knowledge.
