Hartmut Rosa – Situation and Constellation: On the Disappearance of Human Agency
Teachers who can’t give grades simply to encourage, doctors who treat screens rather than patients, referees whose judgment is being pushed out by VAR. In today’s society, our behavior is changing imperceptibly. Especially in professional life, but also increasingly in our free time, regulations and forms, algorithms and apps meticulously define our approach to decision-making. This development comes at a high price, which sociologist Hartmut Rosa quantifies vividly in Situation and Constellation: On the Disappearance of Human Agency. When scope for discretion and the creativity of human activity are eliminated from everyday routines, the feeling of powerlessness grows. How can we combat this individual and collective loss of energy in our society and boost human agency? Host: Stephanie Rohde
