Welcome to the online start up of Economics on the border

 

Please write you contribution to the series and feel free to edit this page. If you need any help on how to use this wiki, scroll down to the bottom of the page where you will find links to the manual and instruction videos.

 

Introduction

Economics on the Border is a student-run open seminar meant to fill the gap between economics and certain disciplines or fields of thought (such as continental and political philosophy) that are usually considered as “unaffiliated” with the methods and practices of economic science. It is run jointly by master students that are enrolled in EIPE (Erasmus Institute for Philosophy and Economics) and in the Philosophical Anthropology MPhil at the Erasmus University. It is a “work in progress” seminar run independently of the university’s curriculum and it is open to any philosophy and/or economics student that wishes to discuss certain unexplored or understated affiliations between the two (or more!) disciplines. For a more comprehensive description of the program please see the link below.

Izaak Dekker:

In this seminar the critiques and theories of Richard Sennett (The culture of new capitalism, The craftsman, The uses of disorder) will be presented and evaluated. Furthermore I would like to use this presentation in order to discuss the broader themes Sennett brings up in his writings. For example the possibility of craftsmanship in a technocapitalist environment and the impacts of economical factors on culture and public life. Sennett has written much about the ways in which our public space is organised. Abstract ways of planning on enormous scale by the municipality a company or government fail in making living and vibrating neighbourhoods, can this be re-organised (or maybe dis-organised) and in what way?
