About
Featuring seminars and interviews about the contemporary social contract: what it is, how and why it breaks down, and how it can be strengthened. Some episodes discuss academic and philosophical approaches to social contract theory; others discuss practical, social and political issues related to the social contract. This podcast is made possible by funding from the Australian Resesarch Council Future Fellowship project "Rewriting the Social Contract: Technology, Ecology, Extremism".
