    Book launch - Education at the end of time

    Education at the End of Time Stefan Bengtsson, Jonas Andreasen Lysgaard & Dylan McGarry (Emerald Publishing, 2025) What does it mean to educate in a time when the very coordinates of the future feel uncertain — or altogether lost? This book takes that question seriously, drawing on dark pedagogy, posthumanist theory, and speculativethought to rethink what education can be when optimism is no longer enough. In this episode Professor Marcia McKenzie (University of Melbourne) and Joanne Peers (University of the Witwatersrand) discuss our newest book and the messy process of trying out something new in academia.
