Posted 30 January 2021
ANNOUNCEMENT: HENCEFORTH, NEW EPISODES WILL BE POSTED EVERY TWO WEEKS.
MINUTES
00:00 - Introduction
02:56 - Aspects of the subject and subjectivity. Divisions of subjectivity. Subjectivity and science. Relation to psychoanalysis, Gestalt-theorie, phenomenology. Klaus Holzkamp's "premises," Teo's "suturing," Michel Foucault's "subjectification." Impacts of physis, temporality, technology on subjectivity. Examples of neoliberal, fascist, and academic subjectivity. Relation to identity.
20:05 - Eduard Spranger's Types of Men (forms of life). Recent narrowing of the range of subjectivities to just the neoliberal form. The journal article as commercial product. Relation of subjectivity to consciousness.
27:24 - Psychological humanities: history, philosophy, theory, arts of psychology. Epistemology. "Psychological paradox." Ontology. Anselm Kiefer. Ai Weiwei.
37:23 - Epistemic (Spivak) / Epistemological (Teo) violence. (Note: The distinction between "context of discovery" and "context of justification" was originated by the prominent Berlin-based Logical Positivist, Hans Reichenbach.)
43:55 - Subhumanism, die-ability. Opposition to immigration. What has been revealed about Western society by the COVID-19 pandemic.
52:20 - Thomas Teo's upbringing and education. The effects of 1970s-'80s Austrian socialism on higher education. Social psychology in 1980s Austria.
1:01:55 - Critical psychology. "Doing justice" to communities, to culture, to objects. Differences between Vienna and Berlin "schools" of Critical Psychology (leader of Berlin school was Klaus Holzkamp). Relation (or not) to Critical Theory. (Note: "Critical Theory" arose in Frankfurt in the aftermath of World War I. Its original leaders were Theodor Adorno, Max Horkheimer, and Herbert Marcuse. Walter Benjamin and Erich Fromm were associated with it as well. Its most prominent later representative was Jürgen Habermas.)
1:08:11 - Teo's move to Berlin. Importance of intimately knowing conventional psychology to conducting successful critique of psychology. The problem of doing longitudinal research in an age where theories rapidly change.
1:13:48 - Teo's move to Canada. Differences between German/Austrian and American/Canadian psychology, and how the history of psychology is taught. "Indigenous" influences. "Motivated historiography." (Why is Wundt central in North America, but only one of many in Germany?) Is psychology a "continuous" or "discontinuous" discipline?
1:22:05 - Closing.
1:23:13 - End.
