- Sep 251:30 PMPresentation by Yarran Hominh (Bard College)Understanding Unfreedom Much political philosophy theorizes ideals of justice, freedom, equality. But our current world is in many ways not ideal. When we look around us, we see injustice, unfreedom, inequality. These phenomena do not merely seem temporary blips on our way toward achieving ideals. They seem, instead, relatively permanent features of our world. What might a political philosophy look like that began from those phenomena, from the shape of our existing world? Beginning from unfreedom, I argue, directs philosophical theorizing toward a) explanation of the forces that keep things as they are, and b) imagination of how things might be changed, through c) the exercise of collective agency. Political philosophy in this way becomes more closely connected to issues in moral psychology and to existential questions about the relation of human beings to each other and to the world.
