Materialisms Reading Group: Renan Nery Porto (University of Westminster) introducing Nigel Clark and Bronislaw Szerszynski, Planetary Social Thought: The Anthropocene Challenge to the Social Sciences (2020)

About the group

The Materialisms Reading Group organises regular meetings to discuss a range of posthuman, new materialist, speculative realist, actor-network and object-oriented understandings that foreground the materiality of life and its governance. This is not a lecture course so we will be mixing up the texts and approaching key or interesting readings in an informal and flexible way, with a brief introduction by one of the group. Reading group meetings have been running since May 2013, they are open to all and take place Thursdays 6.30-8.00pm. Please see Professor David Chandler's website for further information.
