■講題:A battle over reality: Pitching the social contract anew through the neuropolitics of inclusion / 為真實性而戰:以包容的神經政治學重新倡議社會契約論(英文演講)
Short description: Liberal democracies worldwide are facing increased polarisation and division, with right-wing ideologies and parties laying claim to illiberal and nationalist visions of reality. Current Liberal and Left strategies based on a moral-values discourse increasingly fail to address these divisions and persuade those hostile to the democratic social order. A novel, neuropolitical theory of inclusion based on social neuroscience insights into stereotyping, racism and dehumanization can offer an alternative framework and persuasive language through which to pitch the social contract anew in our hyperdiverse times. This neuropolitical approach, in the tradition of other materialist social contract theorists such as Thomas Hobbes, is focused on understanding the neurocognitive mechanisms underlying exclusion and division, and offering effective strategies in reaching the brains of those who are hardest to convince. The talk will apply these theoretical arguments in the context of post-Trump US, anti-Asian racism in Europe, and rising nationalism and the post-liberal world order after the Ukraine invasion.

當今自由民主國家普遍面臨日益加劇的兩極分化。一方面右翼意識形態和政黨承繼了不自由和民族主義的現實想像,另一方面自由派和左派立基於道德價值論述的應對策略越來越無法排解這些分歧。講者將以包容的神經政治學理論重新倡議社會契約論,提供有效的策略來觸及那些最難說服的大腦。演講並將把這套嶄新的理論框架應用於後川普時代的美國、歐洲的反亞洲人種族主義,民族主義興起,以及烏克蘭入侵後的後自由主義世界秩序。
