Two social theorists try and make sense of an unravelling world, with occasional guests. We're interested in the experience of crisis, as well as knowledge production about crisis. In fact we're not sure if it's possible to ultimately separate one from the other 🦊

    What has a year of COVID-19 done to knowledge production?

    In this new series of The Isolation Pod we'll be discussing knowledge production after a year of COVID-19. We cover a range of topics in this opening episode from the affectivity of online teaching and the physical strains of digital scholarship through to the social infrastructure for scholarship and the opportunity to critically revaluate the 'normal' which many of us feel a yearning to return to. This exploratory conversation raised lots of issues we'll explore in future such as the role of practice in responding to crisis, the likely shape of post-pandemic academic culture and whether we need to rebuild the social fabric of scholarship.

    Day 1: The sociology of Covid-19 hot takes

    In this episode, Jana and Mark discuss the sociology of 'hot (theoretical) takes'  - what is it about crises that provokes so many intellectuals to offer interpretations? What is it about 'philosophising' that is so tempting and so frustrating for gasping epochal events? And what is specific about the Covid19 crisis and how intellectuals respond to it?  Thanks to @2kwanya (and @GubernatorHomo) for our music and @milan_stuermer for suggesting our name.
