Truth and Judgement at the Limits of Liberalism

This lecture explores how neoliberalism has eroded the liberal institutions of judgment, transforming the ways in which truth is produced and politically mobilised. As institutional mediation weakens, truth increasingly appears in moralised and quasi-theological forms of exposure, testimony, and conscience rather than through established procedures of institutional adjudication.

The talk examines the implications of this shift for contemporary politics and the future of liberalism.
