SUMMARY:Liverpool Central Library: Liverpool Central Library: The Liquid Cl
 ub #3: The Posthuman by Rosi Braidotti
DESCRIPTION:The Liquid Club is a discussion group which invites collective 
 thinking and drives the development of Liverpool Biennial 2020.\n\nOur dis
 cursive journey so far has centred around the Amazonian concept of subject
 ivity and the ideas of Brazilian anthropologist Eduardo Viveiros de Castro
 . We have also examined how Félix Guattari’s theoretical and political 
 practice challenged Western patriarchal and colonialist ideas around the b
 ody\, through the film Assemblages by Angela Melitopoulos and Maurizio L
 azzarato.\n\nIn this month’s Liquid Club\, as we face the crisis of a f
 urther divided Europe\, we will be discussing themes of subjectivity\, ind
 ividualism and the role Europe-centric humanism has played in this\, using
  an extract from Rosi Braidotti’s book The Posthuman (2013).\n\nWe wil
 l assess the individual and collective impact on our social and political 
 environment by looking at diasporic movements\, fundamentalist appeals to 
 ethnic differences\, as well as violence towards a perceived ‘other’. 
 In light of this\, we will ask how might a theory of “post-humanism” a
 nd “nomadism” lead us to think of an enlarged sense of self: moving be
 yond a self-centered individualism and instead into a model that locates u
 s in what Braidotti calls ‘an affirmative flow of relations with multipl
 e others’.\n\nKEY TEXT\n\nThe Posthuman by Rosi Braidotti (p.46-54)\nD
