Upcoming Event

Dispositives of Power

Zurich, 22 November 2019, 1:30 pm – 5 pm

Kraftwerk Selnau, Selnauerstrasse 25, Zurich

In the age of “digitality” (Prof. Felix Stalder, ZHdK) not only the handling of knowledge is changing, but also the relationships and power relations between the various actors of adult education. Further trends such as the economisation of education, individualisation or globalisation are also causing a shift in the balance of power.

Based on the concept of “dispositives of power” by the French philosopher Michel Foucault, the conference will reflect on the behaviour, discourses, self-understandings and external understandings of the actors in adult education.

Prof. Dr. Ulla Klingovsky, Professor of Adult Education and Continuing Education at the FHNW, will provide the theoretical foundations in a short introduction.

The objectiv of the event is the development of future scenarios. They point out thinking and action areas from different perspectives. The focus is on the development of desired scenarios. However, they should also address risks and outline tendencies that could be detrimental to continuing training.

The event is aimed at:
– School principals or cadres in adult education organisations
– Course instructors and course designers
– Researchers from the field of adult education and observers of the scene

TRANSIT promises you enrichment and inspiration for you personally and your concrete everyday life.
