Hosted by Professor Árpád Szakolczai, University College Cork & HSG Collegium, and in collaboration with the Rethinking Economics St. Gallen
What does it mean to be free in a world that calls itself democratic and liberal? Is democracy enough to sustain true freedom? Drawing on his book Post-Truth Society: A Political Anthropology of Trickster Logic, Prof. Szakolczai explores how manipulation, spectacle, and the loss of shared meaning shape our understanding of liberty and authority.
