In Lean on Me: A Politics of Radical Care, Lynne Segal, Anniversary Professor of Psychology and Gender Studies in the Department of Psychosocial Studies at Birkbeck, continues the radical exploration of how the personal and the political interact. As Baroness Helena Kennedy KC writes, ‘Both memoir and manifesto, this wonderful book charts a personal history of feminist socialism - and, with her usual humane wisdom, our author points the way to a better politics.' She was joined in conversation by Amelia Horgan, author of Lost in Work: Escaping Capitalism.Get a copy of Lean on Me: lrb.me/lynnesegalpodFind more events at the Bookshop: lrb.me/eventspod Hosted on Acast.

Continuing their consideration of pleasure for a world of leftist struggle, co-hosts Charlotte Tavan (@moltopopulare) and Natalie Tabb Smith (@orangeasm) turn to a recently published Superstructure article co-authored by Erica Robles-Anderson and Scott Ferguson. Titled "The Visual Cliff: Eleanor Gibson and the Origins of Affordance," the essay critically locates the hidden history of contemporary user-experience design in a well-known psychological experiment. Conducted by Dr. Eleanor Gibson, the experiment placed babies alone atop a visual precipice in order to test their depth perception. Following the essay, Charlotte and Naty question the notion that we must remain frozen forever between false binaries, like babies staring over an impossible visual cliff. Doing so, their discussion weaves through thinkers as diverse as Lynne Segal, Adrienne Maree Brown, Lisa Duggan, Gayle Rubin, and more.

The pandemic has brought public health into focus while also serving as a magnifying glass that clarifies existing inequalities relating to class, race and gender. In this final instalment of the series, we'll hear about how illness is produced and managed under capitalism while trying to reimagine a world in which care for the ill is a central feature of our politics. This episode was produced by Aron Keller, James Roadnight, Sarah Vowden, Matt Huxley, Penny Grennan, Charlie Clarke, Hanadi Rammu with contributions from Ellen Clifford, Vijay Prashad, Ellie Bradford, Ros Reynolds-Grey, David Tovey, Prof. John Foot and Lynne Segal.

In this episode, we talk with historian and socialist-feminist Sheila Rowbotham about her own political and intellectual development. Rowbotham was a close friend of Edward and Dorothy Thompson, a participant in the radical movements of the 1960s and 1970s, and a prominent political writer and historian. We also discuss Chapters 12 and 13: the different meanings of discipline in working-class life, the Irish presence, and class-struggle elections in ninteenth-century Westminster.

“Sevinç, siyasi bir şey olarak alındığında, gerçek bir toplumsal değişimi tahayyül etmemizi sağlayacak olan şeydir.” Alev Özkazanç, “Dünya aşkıyla yaşayan ve yazan” bir kadının Lynne Segal’in öyküsünü anlatıyor. İngiltere’nin önde gelen sosyalist - feminist akademisyenlerinden olan Segal, feminist hareket içinden ve öz-eleştirel siyasi değerlendirmeleriyle öne çıkan ve etkili olan bir yazar. Siyaseti “birbirlerine bağlılık ve başkalarının hayatı için sorumluluk duyan insanların yaratıcı, coşkulu, dönüştürücü kolektif faaliyeti” olarak gören Segal`in feminizmi sadece kadınlarla sınırlı olmayan, eşitlikçi bir toplumsal dönüşümü gerektiren bir feminizm anlayışı ve her şeyden öte kolektif sevinç ve eylem coşkusuna dayanan bir feminizm bu. Günümüzde yaygın hale gelen bir eğilime karşı uyarıda bulunuyor Segal: Neo liberalizminin kapitalizmden başka bir yol olmadığına insanları ikna etmesiyle birlikte distopik düşüncenin siyasi eylem haline dönüşmesine. Ütopyacı düşünce için nihai hedeflere değil arzuya odaklanmalıyız. Radikal mutluluk dediği şey tam da böyle bir gelecek vizyonu ve toplumsal değişim için zorunlu bir şey. “Sevinç, siyasi bir şey olarak alındığında, gerçek bir toplumsal değişimi tahayyül etmemizi sağlayacak olan şeydir” diye yazıyor Segal… “Yaşamlarımız ancak sevgi, arkadaşlık, kızgınlık, gücenme ve şefkat gösterme gibi farklı yollarla başkalarının hayatlarına değer verdiğimiz ölçüde anlam kazanır”.

Lynne Segal and Susie Orbach in conversation Feminist writer and activist, Lynne Segal, discusses her recently published Out of Time: The Pleasures and Perils of Ageing with psychotherapist, psychoanalyst, social critic and writer Susie Orbach - author of many celebrated books, amongst them Bodies and On Eating, and recently co-edited Fifty Shades of Feminism, with Lisa Appignanesi and Rachel Holmes. In her autobiography Making Trouble (2007), Segal described herself as ‘a reluctantly ageing woman', and mused about the need for ‘a feminist sexual politics of ageing'. Out of Time is her answer to these issues. Fears of ageing, Segal argues, are fed to us from childhood in stories and fairy tales full of monstrous, quintessentially female, figures. She confronts the simplistic attributions of generational blame frequently named as causes of the economic crisis, the growing erotic invisibility for ageing women as well as the expectations of gender and ageing that inevitably constrain ambition and political engagement.  Out of Time also examines the representation of ageing in the work of other writers (many of them feminists) including Simone de Beauvoir, Alice Walker, Adrienne Rich, Philip Roth, Diane Athill, Joyce Carol Oates, John Berger, Grace Paley, Jo Brand, Jacques Derrida and John Updike.

Happiness seems elusive in our society, despite the many industries attempting to sell it through a multitude of products and services.  What's missing, according to feminist Lynne Segal, is the sense that our happiness is intertwined with the happiness of others.  She calls for reclaiming radical joy, through collective life and activism.

Sheila Rowbotham’s many books, in history, politics, feminist theory and biography, have established her firmly at the forefront of both the women’s movement and of libertarian socialism. Perhaps the most personal of them though is Promise of a Dream, first published by Penguin in 2000 and now available again in a new edition from Verso. Frank, beautifully written, funny and moving, it is a coming of age story that takes us from Leeds to Oxford via the Sorbonne, and a stirring account of awakening political consciousness during the 1960s. Professor Rowbotham read from her work, and was in conversation with Lynne Segal, Professor of Psychology and Gender Studies at Birkbeck College and author, most recently, of Radical Happiness and Making Trouble.

I slutet av 60-talet började en generation ifrågasätta villa, volvo, vove-tillvaron som delar av föräldragenerationen upphöjt till meningen. De undertryckta begären släpptes ut, och gav ett titthål till en värld bortom. För vissa genom experimenterande med former för att leva tillsammans eller i feministiska samtalsgrupper om vardagen, för andra på en fest nånstans i Kalifornien med två bålskålar varav den ena spetsad med LSD. Men med tiden verkar sökandet i begären gradvis slutat vara en gemensam utsida, för att istället (försöka) tillfredsställas genom en oändlig privat konsumtion av identitetsskapande varor och tjänster. I det här avsnittet pratar vi om Mark Fischer som i sitt skrivande snöade in allt mer på hur kapitalismen överlevde 1968-vindarna genom att låta de blåsa in i marknadens tunnlar och hur denna form tillslut fick monopol på hur vi går till väga för att möta begären. Kan vi, i en tid där det som Fredric Jameson skriver 'är svårare att tänka sig världens undergång än slutet på kapitalismen', genom att prata om begären och kapitalismens tillkortakommanden i att tillfredsställa oss finna en horisont för en rörelse mot en radikalt annorlunda och bättre tillvaro?

How to subvert the negative stereotypes about older women? Kim Chakanetsa brings together two women - both in their late 70s - to discuss how to grow older with purpose, passion, and a certain playfulness. Chilean author Isabel Allende is one of the most acclaimed writers in the world. Her novels, which draw on her own eventful life, tell stories of love, exile and loss, and have sold more than 70 million copies and have been translated from Spanish into 42 languages. Now aged 76, she has spoken openly about how to live passionately at any age. Also aged 76, Lynne Segal is a British-based feminist academic who has grappled with the paradoxes, struggles and advantages of ageing in her book, 'Out of Time: The Pleasures and Perils of Ageing'. Originally from Australia, Lynne is also a seasoned feminist and social activist and is Professor of Psychology and Gender Studies at Birkbeck College, London.

Jonathan Ashworth MP, Lynne Segal, Rebecca Winson, Keir Milburn, Rick Burgess There's a 30% chance you will suffer from severe mental distress at some point in your lifetime. We are in the midst of a mental health crisis, exacerbated by cuts to health and social services. The causes of mental distress are varied: relationships, poverty, trauma, to name a few. Yet we rarely discuss the impact of the system we live in: neoliberal capitalism. Have changes in the way we work and live caused an epidemic of anxiety and depression? What role can Labour play in alleviating mental distress? And could socialism be the best antidepressant of all?

Vijay Prashad, Tithi Bhattacharya, Aaron Bastani, Lynne Segal, Wendy Liu After the global financial crisis of 2008 almost precipitated the collapse of the world economy, more and more people have turned to the ideas of Karl Marx to help them understand the failures of capitalism and provide a vision for a different kind of society. In 2018, as even Teen Vogue are publishing articles about Marx, we ask what it means to be a communist today. Is it possible to separate the idea of communism from gulags and secret police? Two hundred years after his birth, are Marx's ideas still relevant and can they help us to overcome the crises englufing our planet? @vijayprashad @AaronBastani @lynne_segal @dellsystem & Tithi Bhattacharya

In an age of increasing individualism, we have never been more alone and miserable. But what if the true nature of happiness can only be found in others? In Radical Happiness, leading feminist thinker Lynne Segal argues that we have lost the art of radical happiness—the art of transformative, collective joy. Lynne Segal was at the shop to discuss Radical Happiness and the political and emotional potential of being together with writer and campaigner Melissa Benn.

Not long ago, Tony Blair and Bill Clinton said there was no more point in arguing with globalisation than the weather: it was an unstoppable wind of change. No longer. It has spun into reverse. Dani Rodrik joins Tom Clark and explains why good economics always made hyper-globalisation a dubious proposition. Meanwhile, Keynes biographer Robert Skidelsky reappraises the record of one thoughtful globaliser: Gordon Brown. And feminist Lynne Segal takes on another sell from the economics profession: the “happiness industry." See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
