The Politics of Reading Lists with Ahmed Ansari + Post-Radical Pedagogy
Reading lists as a genre that has seen widespread dissemination in the last few years in both the academy and beyond. This discussion takes on three dimensions to try and think around the politics of reading lists: lists as a genre, comparing them to other similar genres, such as syllabi, glossaries, and encyclopedias; lists and media economies, thinking through (historicized) issues of where we encounter lists; and lastly, lists as politics, thinking of them through the politics of self-education, cultural consumption, and capital accumulation.P4
