The event binding together the interviews in this book is the May 2020 petition in support of the academic autonomy of the Institute for Philosophy and Social Theory of the University of Belgrade. Given by thinkers who truly reflect the global academic community, the interviews taken together provide the means to move between past and future in order to better and more actively engage with the present. Stemming from an effort to memorialize one academic institution’s struggle for survival, in effect, these are twenty “thought exercises” that articulate (certainly unfinished) answers to pressing social issues and struggles, laying down a testament and challenge for the future.
