Judith Butler, "Democracy and the Future of the Humanities," 04/12/2024
Dec 23, 2024
This video is an edited version of Judith Butler's talk, “Democracy and the Future of the Humanities,” given on December 4, 2024, during their visit to South Korea. This lecture explores the connection between democracy, imagination, and the humanities. Butler examines how young people's fears about the future - from climate change to economic precarity - reflect a crisis in our collective ability to imagine better possibilities.
The talk argues that democracy requires the ability to imagine alternative futures and the critical thinking skills fostered by the humanities. Butler analyzes how anti-democratic movements often construct phantasms that scapegoat vulnerable groups while simultaneously attacking higher education and intellectual inquiry.
Butler connects these themes to questions of whose lives are considered grievable in our society, arguing that grief and recognizing interdependency are essential for true democracy. The lecture concludes by defending the humanities as crucial for developing the "collaborative imagining" needed to address current crises and envision more equitable futures.
This timely discussion brings together political theory, cultural criticism, and defense of humanistic education to address urgent questions about democracy's future in an age of rising authoritarianism and environmental crisis.

World-renowned economist Jeffrey Sachs tells Imran Garda he doesn’t trust the US — its intentions, foreign policy, or direction — no matter the administration. He says that the United States is steering the world toward disaster.
As he castigates America, the Columbia University professor denies that this has made him an apologist for countries like China and Russia.
Rather than Israel being an extension of US policy in the region, Sachs provocatively declares that Benjamin Netanyahu is steering American policy with Israel’s wars in Gaza, Lebanon and even had a hand in earlier wars such as Iraq.
He also argues that western countries, led by the US, and not Vladimir Putin, are ultimately to blame for starting Russia’s war in Ukraine.
An advisor to UN Secretaries General and governments around the world, Sachs gives us some personal insights into his own experience of what he says was a CIA orchestrated coup in Haiti, and how he decodes the intentions of those he is certain are taking us ever closer to global nuclear catastrophe.

10 sept. 2023 #dwdocumentary #mongolia #documentary
Mongolia. For most of us, a name that brings to mind the powerful empire of Genghis Khan. This film is a journey through Mongolian history and into modern Mongolian culture. It offers fascinating insights into the little-known central Asian nation.
Mongolia, a country rich with forests, deserts and steppes, borders Russia to the north and China to the south. But its chief influences today come from South Korea and the West.
Director Robert H. Lieberman and filmmaker Deborah C. Hoard introduce novelists, journalists, politicians, activists, poets, painters and a comedian, all of whom shed light on the young republic - and its young population.
Historians, archaeologists and local residents tell the story of the vast empire. The eastern European and Asian territory captured by a fighting force of united Mongol tribes was the largest contiguous land empire in the history of the world. The film looks the beyond the figure of Genghis Khan, the notorious founder of the Mongol empire, and explores the multi-faceted legacy of the realm. It’s a legacy that still makes itself felt in the present day.
This film was directed by Robert H. Lieberman and Produced by PSP Productions.
