What appears to be an individual failure in the face of everyday demands is the result of neoliberal crisis management. A fundamental change of perspective is therefore needed, a care revolution. Gabriele Winker develops steps towards a society based on solidarity that no longer focuses on profit maximisation but on human needs and, in particular, care for one another. The goal is a world in which people no longer face each other as competitors, but instead shape their individual lives together.Speaker: Dr Gabriele Winker is Professor of Labour Studies and Gender Studies at the TU Hamburg-Harburg. She is a co-founder of the Feminist Institute Hamburg and an activist in the Care Revolution network.
