‘Care Beyond Crisis’, a lecture by Emma Dowling

British sociologist and political scientist Emma Dowling will give a lecture titled Care Beyond Crisis: From Privatisation to Solidarity, on Wednesday, March 27th, at 7 p.m. Organized by Drugo more association, the lecture will take place at the Filodrammatica Gallery (Korzo 28/1, Rijeka). Admission is free.
All too often the problems we face as a society are couched in terms of the needs of ‘the economy’, with all else appearing as secondary. However, were we to change our view and look at the economy from the perspective of care, our debates about the problems we face and the solutions to them would change. In her talk, Emma Dowling will chart the multifaceted nature of the current care crisis, its structural causes, dynamics and consequences, raising the unavoidable question: how do we end the care crisis?
