Online IPW Lecture: Discourses on the ‘Future of Work’: Three Empirical Studies

Lukas Schlögl (CeSCoS), Timo Seidl (EIF) & Paul Dunshirn (DigiGov) held an IPW Lecture on 19 January 2022. Moderation by Barbara Prainsack

Abstract:

Discourses on the “Future of Work” attract significant attention in the policy community and beyond. Who will pursue what kind of work in the future? What role will new technologies play in the workplace? Who will need to adapt their skills to a changing work environment? And what role should governments, businesses and trade unions play in the transformation of work? Discourses that address such questions and provide respective policy advice implicitly (re-)negotiate the value of work, norms about distribution and fairness, and the social order. This IPW lecture presents findings from three recent studies that analyse public discourse on the Future of Work, the actors involved in producing it, and the values underpinning it.


Online IPW Lecture: Steffen Mau - Sortiermaschinen. Die Neuerfindung der Grenze im 21. Jahrhundert

Steffen Mau (Humboldt-Universität Berlin) hielt am 25. November 2021 eine IPW Lecture ab. Moderation von Ivan Josipovic (IPW).

Abstract:

Der Vortrag beschäftigt sich mit der Metamorphose staatlicher Grenzen und Formen der Grenzkontrolle im 21. Jahrhundert. Es fragt: Wie verändert sich unter Bedingungen von Globalisierung, internationaler Verflechtung, neuer Abgrenzung und Konflikthaftigkeit die Art und Weise, wie Staaten ihre Grenzen markieren und sichern, wie sie Durchlässigkeit und Abschließung verbinden? Wie verändert sich Grenzkontrolle politisch, räumlich und technologisch? Der Vortrag zeigt, wie die Sortiermaschine Grenze heute wirksam wird und welche neuen Ungleichheiten dadurch entstehen.

Eine Veranstaltung im Rahmen der IPW Lectures, einer internationalen Vortragsreihe des Instituts für Politikwissenschaft, Universität Wien.
