Monika Rogowska-Stangret´´ s lecture and workshop in CETE-P

Center for Environmental and Technology Ethics - Prague | Centrum pro environmentální a technologickou etiku - Praha

CETE-P hosted Monika Rogowska-Stangret, a philosopher conducting research at the intersection of feminist philosophy, environmental humanities, and critical posthumanism, and a translator, from the University of Białystok.

In the lecture "Exhaustion and Scale in the Anthropocene" Monika presented her work on the broadly understood notion of exhaustion as a phenomenon percolating through today's climate crisis landscapes. She also shared her ideas on cross-scale ethics, underlining the importance of paying attention to scales in Anthropocene ethics. A discussion about specific contemporary examples of exhaustion and the importance of collective thinking, concrete actions, and politics followed the lecture.

The workshop "Posthuman Earth: Feminist and Critical Posthuman Approaches to Climate Change", co-organized by Monika together with the CETE-P team Iwona Janicka and Petr Urban, provided an opportunity to discuss further topics related to posthumanism, ethics, and more-than-human worlds in times of climate challenges. In the workshop, a vibrant, intense, and interdisciplinary space and time was created, to consider how a posthuman earth might look, feel, and be like, what kinds of theoretical and political challenges it introduces, and what hopes it raises.

Monika also had several occasions to discuss her work further with researchers affiliated with CETE-P. She also consulted their projects and academic endeavours, exchanged ideas, and planned future collaborations.

Monika visited CETE-P for her research project on "Anthropocene ethics. Redefining the concept of the human in posthuman philosophy" funded by the National Science Centre, Poland.
