Public Philosophy (with Kate Manne)

from Hotel Bar Sessions · host Leigh M. Johnson, Jennifer Kling, Bob Vallier

Is public philosophy just academic outreach in a new outfit, or is it something else entirely? In this episode, we're joined by Kate Manne (Cornell University) to  ask what happens when philosophers leave their usual habitats and try to meet people where they actually live. We talk about the push to be legible outside the profession, the risk of being dismissed inside it, and the slippery politics of trying to do both at once. What’s the value of work that doesn’t look like philosophy but still feels like it? And who gets to decide when philosophy has gone too far—or not far enough?  Full episode notes available at this link:https://hotelbarpodcast.com/podcast/public-philosophy-with-kate-manne-------------------If you enjoy Hotel Bar Sessions podcast, please be sure to subscribe and submit a rating/review!
