Lieven De Cauter reflects on the ongoing collapse of ecosystems and societies, the lack of awareness and the desperate calls of the climate strikers, extinction rebellion and other activists to finally take the action needed. He will argue that the multiple ecological crisis demands an interruption of business as usual, and that we need a radical interruption of normality.
Lieven De Cauter has published over a dozen books. They include Art and Activism in the Age of Globalization (2011); Entropic Empire (2012); The Dwarf in the Chess Machine. Benjamin’s Hidden Doctrine (2018); and Ending the Anthropocene. Essays on Activism in the Age of Collapse (2021).
