Presentations/Talks

Check here from time to time to find podcasts, slides or notes from various talks I give to folks here and there… If you look at a couple you will definitely see some recurring themes: the problem of a failure to examine the “ends” of what we are doing in society, the issue of “technique” or “la société technique” from Jacques Ellul (who also wrote about ends), the problem of faith in technique, the issue of “fallenness” and the problem of the “powers”.  I see lots of applications of these issues and so I am applying a general approach to examining a number of things: food systems, education systems, development, etc.
