TWENTY-EIGTH ANNUAL
J. JEFFERY AUER LECTURE
by Jodi Dean


Are social networks like Twitter and Facebook powerful forces for egalitarian people's struggles? Or are they distractions that ultimately undermine collective power even as they enhance democracy? In her lecture, Jodi Dean will present her idea of communicative capitalism, explaining how new media realize democracy and thus point us to the limits of democracy for radical politics.
