Dr Stefan Nowotny was trained as a philosopher. His research focuses mainly on questions of political theory, the complexities of translation and the entanglements of historical and contemporary epistemologies and imaginaries. In recent years he has also developed an increasing interest in the affective and ethico-aesthetic dimensions of processes of subjectivation in contemporary technocapitalism. While his writing mostly deals with philosophical and political topics, he has also repeatedly collaborated with artists as well as cultural or activist associations.
