Digital Depression: the Crisis of Digital Capitalism The economic downturn of the early 1970s engendered massive, sustained corporate investment in ICTs (Information and Communication Technologies,) as a many sided attempt to renew profitable growth. Core components of this response included financialisation, the restructuring of the production system, and the recomposition of the communications industry as a leading site of economic dynamism. The vaunted ‘Information Age’, however, turned out to herald a new and deeper financial-economic crisis - a digital depression with which we continue to live. How may the newly contentious geopolitics of information play out? May we expect the communications sector to reprise its earlier role in renewing growth and profitability? 2.30 on Tuesday 7th May, Main Room Huston School. Rosa Luxemburg's Internet? Both the state and capital have been crucial for the evolving political economy of the Internet. Drawing on the thought of the Polish Marxist Rosa Luxemburg, We should inquire as to how states are supporting commodification projects built around the Internet; how they are contending with one another in this process; and how communication processes are related to the historical reconstitution of the global working class. Professor Dan Schiller is a historian of information and communications at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. The author of half a dozen books and many research articles, he has written extensively on the development and current structure of digital capitalism—the system of market relationships that is predicated increasingly on networks. His current research focuses on the role of information and communications in today's financial/economic crisis, and on the history of U.S. telecommunications infrastructures.

Professor Rudi Roose, Ghent University, Belgium Biographical Details: Rudi Roose studied Educational Sciences and Criminology at Ghent University in Belgium. He worked as a frontline worker and as a manager in different child protection services and obtained his PhD is Educational Sciences with an action research on youth care. He is currently professor in social work at Ghent University and part-time professor in Criminal justice Social Work at the Free University Brussels, Belgium. As in other Western countries, social work in Belgium can be seen as under pressure from managerialistic discourses, 'evidence based' policy guidelines and cut backs on investments in the welfare state. As a countermovement, we also see an increase of practices of resistance seeking a way out of this dominant discourse and trying to go back to the core of ‘real social work’. In this lecture, I want to go deeper into this development of resistance by explaining current trends and problems. I also want to problematize this development, as what is considered 'real social work' is often defined on the level of the relationships with clients, rather then on the socio-political level. I argue that for this repolitization to occur, we need to radicalize or understanding of the ‘right to welfare’. In Belgium, the 'right to welfare' was installed in law in 1976 and this can be seen as a landmark in the shift from a residual to a structural welfare approach. However, currently this law is interpreted in a minimalistic rather than a maximalistic way. I argue for a revitalization of the importance of this law and the role of social workers – in Belgium and abroad - as interpreters of ‘living rights’ in order to repoliticize social work and go beyond a relational approach.
