Università Roma Tre

The course focuses on the crisis of the "developmentist" modernity, analyzing its original features and its institutional and regulative evolutions, in connection with the changing characters of social theory.
In the final part, we will try to imagine the features of a post-development society, taking inspiration from the "meridian thinking" by Franco Cassano.
Teaching language: English.
