Weltschmerz: A Discourse on a Global Condition - Institute for Critical Social Theory - 1/23/2022

The world is struggling through various crises: from global climate change to economic insecurities, including the ever-increasingly wealth gap; from pandemics to existential meaningless. "World pain," or "world suffering," sometime referred to "existence-fatigue," has infested the lifeworld of millions of individuals through the world. In this discourse, sponsored by the Institute for Critical Social Theory, numerous scholars, including Dustin J. Byrd, Seyed Javad Miri, Toraj Gilbert Moradi, Mehdi Shariati, and Rudolf J. Siebert, discuss this problem from the standpoint of philosophy, sociology, psychology, and political-economics. The discourse was also sponsored by Ekpyrosis Press.
