SUMMARY:Workshop: 'The Grounds of Planning: Rationality\, Pseudorationality\, and Critique'
DESCRIPTION:The description is taken from the organizer’s website: \n\n\n\nWith keynotes by John O’Neill (University of Manchester) and Aaron Benanav (Cornell University)\nand contributions by  Rabea Berfelde\, Jacob Blumenfeld\, Lillian Cicerchia\, Solveig Degen\, Jan Groos\, Max Grünberg\, Jakob Heyer\, Christian Schmidt\, Sandra Sieron and Gabriel Wollner \n  \n\n\n\nTopic\nWhat does it mean to plan an economy rationally—and what counts as „rational“? This workshop revisits key moments in the theoretical development of economic planning\, from the classic disputes between Hayek\, Mises\, and Neurath to contemporary debates over ecological rationality and algorithmic coordination. Across four panels and a keynote\, we’ll examine how different standards of rationality have been used to justify—or discredit—forms of planning. The aim is not only to reanimate past debates\, but to ask how planning might be rethought today given the distinct logic of ecological constraints\, technological infrastructures\, and political demands for democratic coordination. \nThis two-day workshop brings together scholars working at the intersection of philosophy\, political economy\, and critical theory to reflect on the contested rationality of economic planning. How has the concept of planning been shaped by debates over knowledge\, value\, nature\, and technology? What models of rationality—formal\, substantive\, instrumental—have guided or distorted our visions of a planned economy? And what might planning mean in the face of ecological limits\, algorithmic governance\, and authoritarian capitalism? The event is organized around four key discussions\, framed by classic and contemporary texts\, and features two keynotes by John O’Neill and Aaron Benanav. \nDiscussions will be held in English. \n\n\nProgramme\nThursday\, December 4: Past Debates on Planning \n13:00–14:45 | Rationality or Pseudorationality\nJacob Blumenfeld / Christian Schmidt / Lillian Cicerchia \nText basis for discussion: \n1911   Otto Neurath\, “Lost Wanderers of Descartes”\n1925  Otto Neurath\, “Socialist Utility Calculation and Capitalist Profit Calculation” \n14:45-15:15 | Break \n15:15–17:00 | Knowledge and the Limits of Planning\nRabea Berfelde  / Gabriel Wollner / Jakob Heyer \nText basis for discussion: \n1945   Friedrich Hayek\, “The Use of Knowledge in Society” \n17:00-17:30 | Break \n17:30 –19:00 | Keynote John O’Neill \n  \nFriday\, December 5: Present Debates on Planning \n10-11:15  | Keynote Aaron Benanav \n11:15-11:30  | Break \n11:30 –13:00 | Planning Nature\nSolveig Degen  / Jan Groos \n13:00 –14:15 | Lunch \n14:15–15:45 | Algorithmic Planning\nMax Grünberg / Sandra Sieron \n15:45 – 16:00 | Closing\nChristian Schmidt\, Jacob Blumenfeld\, Rabea Berfelde \n  \n\nDownload the workshop reader here. \n\nThe workshop is free to the public and does not require any registration.
