DESCRIPTION:This talk will look at how and why the police are often used as
	 way of resolving\ncrises generated by climate crisis\, and what an abolit
	ionist approach can say\nabout climate breakdown\, and an emerging politic
	al form of climate barbarism\nthat appears to be coalescing.\n\nThere will
	 be a short talk with some pictures\, and then an opportunity to think\nan
	d discuss together how the themes of the presentation differ in other\ncon
	texts.\n\n—————-\n\nOscar Talbot is an activist and scholar working in Ams
	terdam. His work connects\nthemes of abolition\, state violence\, and clim
	ate breakdown with a critique of\nprisons\, police\, and borders.\n\n—————
	-\n\n(Pre)Figuring Fascism is a series of talks drawing attention to the c
	ontinuities\nbetween liberal governance and fascism\, hoping to stimulate 
	an understanding of\nfascism as it relates to colonialism\, imperialism\, 
	and capitalism – rather than\nviewing it as a kind of shock to an otherwis
	e well-working liberal system.\nBecause we know: So long as the conditions
	 for fascism’s emergence are not\novercome\, we are always living in proto
	-fascist times.
