    Dr. Honorata Mazepus is Associate Professor in the Political Science Department at the University of Amsterdam. Her research topics include links between institutions and individuals; legitimacy; fairness; and post-communism.

     

    In this episode, we start by discussing what democracy is, how we measure it, and some of its history. We talk about the election
    winner-loser gap and subjective wellbeing, and citizens’ support for democratic checks and balances. We discuss what civil society is, and its interplay with external actors. We talk about how political legitimacy is established, and what political capacity is. We get specifically into the European Union, and discuss its political legitimacy, respect for national sovereignty, and how it deals with public backlash. Finally, we talk about what drives public support for international humanitarian interventions.

    Dr. Bella DePaulo is the leading expert on single life and has been described by The Atlantic as “America’s foremost thinker and writer on the single experience.” Dr. DePaulo coined the term “single at heart.” After two decades as a professor of psychology at the University of Virginia, Dr. DePaulo moved to the West Coast, where she is currently an academic affiliate in the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences at the University of California, Santa Barbara. Her latest book is Single at Heart: The Power, Freedom, and Heart-Filling Joy of Single Life.

     

    In this episode, we focus on Single at Heart. We talk about Who the “single at heart” people are, their psychological traits, gender differences, the opportunities singlehood offers, and how single people deal with solitude. We discuss whether they feel the need to have kids, and their psychological well-being and life outcomes compared to people in romantic relationships. We talk about social and political discrimination against single people, and where the stigma against them stems from. We also discuss casual relationships, how to interpret statistics about people who do not have sex, new forms of relationships, and what people in relationships can learn from this.

    Dr. Elizabeth Anderson is Max Shaye Professor of Public Philosophy, John Dewey Distinguished University Professor, and Arthur F. Thurnau Professor at the University of Michigan. Dr. Anderson specializes in moral, social and political philosophy, feminist theory, social epistemology, and the philosophy of economics and the social sciences. Her latest book is Hijacked: How Neoliberalism Turned the Work Ethic against Workers and How Workers Can Take It Back.

     

    In this episode, we focus on Hijacked. We start by talking about the origins of the protestant work ethic, the relationship between the work ethic and utilitarianism, and the ideas of John Locke. We discuss how conservatives hijacked the concept of the work ethic and turned it against the workers, and the earlier political applications of the conservative work ethic, involving English welfare reform, the Irish poor law, etc. We talk about Adam Smith, David Ricardo, John Stuart Mill, Karl Marx, and the progressive work ethic. We discuss social democracy and the origins of social insurance. We talk about the rise of neoliberalism, and how welfare policy, and business ethics operate in neoliberal capitalism. Finally, we discuss how we can strive for a progressive work ethic.

Her research interests include mentoring in higher education (undergraduate and graduate students); technology and higher education; barriers to students’ success such as food and housing insecurity; the language of cancer - how do we talk, or not, about cancer and what does that mean for various patients, families, and physicians; and science communication and outreach - how do we communicate clearly about our research findings to reach and benefit a broader audience and the general public.

     

    In this episode, we talk about e-mentoring. We talk about what it is, and how old it is in academia. We talk about how teaching and learning occur online, what predicts the success of e-mentoring, and the advantages and disadvantages of e-mentoring. We also talk about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on e-mentoring and how it is studied. Finally, we discuss some of the biggest barriers to students’ success, including food and housing insecurity.

    In this episode, we focus on Gender Without Identity. We start by talking about the history behind the book, and how psychoanalysis usually approaches LGBTQ+ people. We discuss the importance of history and social context, and we get into Drs. Pellegrini and Saketopoulou’s approach to gender identity. We discuss the issues with “born this way” arguments. We also talk about trauma from a psychoanalytic perspective, gender dysphoria, and how people deal with trauma.
