Hartmut #Rosa on #resonance and alienation in modern times. "We live in a society in which more and more people have the feeling that they are facing a silent, indifferent world," says sociologist Hartmut Rosa. "The result is individual, even collective burnout. People who lead successful lives have a lively connection to other people, to nature, to their work. Life is not only successful when we are rich in resources and options, but when we love it." On May 24, 2016, the professor of general and theoretical sociology at the Friedrich Schiller University in Jena will be a guest at the Vienna #citytalk in the AK Education Center at the invitation of the Vienna Chamber of Labor and the weekly newspaper "Der Falter". Rosa is the director of the Max Weber College at the University of Erfurt and is co-editor of the journal Time & Society. He is the author of numerous books, including "World Relations in the Age of Acceleration" (2012), "Acceleration and Alienation - Draft of a Critical Theory of Late Modern Temporality" (2013), with Wolfgang Endres: "Resonance Pedagogy. When There's a Crack in the Classroom" (2016) and most recently "Resonance: A Sociology of World Relations" (2016): If acceleration is the problem, then resonance is perhaps the solution. This is, in the shortest possible formula, the core thesis of his latest book, which can be read as the founding document of a sociology of the good life. ☛ All information about the Vienna City Talk: https://www.wienerstadtgespraech.at/ ╼ Who we are ╼╼╼╼ The #Arbeiterkammer has been fighting for the rights of workers for 100 years.
