SUMMARY:Climate anxiety\, profane knowledge and the politics of education
DESCRIPTION:12 November\, 12:00-13:00\nREGISTER HERE\nOnline and in the Fac
 ulty of Education\, University of Cambridge (Room GS5 Donald McIntyre Buil
 ding)\nIn this presentation\, Dr Callum McGregor mobilises psychoanalytica
 l political theory to develop an analysis of the circumstances under which
  climate anxiety might foreclose or facilitate critical educational proces
 ses addressing the politics of climate crisis. He will address how climate
  anxiety can be symptomatic of the tacit desire to protect the status quo\
 , as well as an institutionalised disavowal of the very knowledges needed 
 to critically address this desire. The talk will also examine how psychoan
 alysis\, by providing a theoretical basis for examining the relationship b
 etween anxiety and knowledge disavowal\, can help to illuminate social pro
 cesses of organized ignorance that actively (re)produce the epistemologica
 l face of climate injustice in education. Elaborating on these themes\, Ca
 llum will consider their concrete implications for educational research.
