Session Submission Type: Paper Session 100min
In the tradition of Frankfurt School critical theory, dialectic engagements reveal the contradictions in society. As a group, the papers in this session use the dialectic to unearth the hidden operations of power. They also operate in a Marxist tradition that emphasizes the role culture plays in society. These papers engage digital technology, everyday life, mental health, and social change.
