黑料正能量

In the fifth episode of the Learning Laboratory series, 黑料正能量鈥檚 Professor Martin Dege discusses the psychological implications of 鈥榮ocial distancing鈥�, particularly as it affects the older generations. As Dege explains, 鈥渁 discourse has emerged that renders older people as the object of protective measures. I want to critically examine the idea of 鈥榮ocial distancing鈥� and question the concept of 鈥榩rotecting鈥� at risk groups.鈥�

About Professor Martin Dege聽

Martin Dege joined The American University of Paris in August 2018. He received his PhD and MA degrees from Clark University, Massachusetts and a BA from Freie Universit盲t Berlin. Martins research follows three strands;聽on the theoretical level he is interested in the historical emergence of psychology as a discipline, more specifically, how various theoretical ideas have been intertwined with political interests and power struggles to form the discipline as it stands today. On the empirical level, he investigates how new forms of technology change our everyday lives, at once unfolding new potentials for inclusive practices across our society and foreclosing particular local traditions and systems of thought. On the institutional level, he explores concepts of digital humanities and how digitalization changes both research and teaching.
