GEORGE LAKOFF: The Political Mind in 2020
October 27 @ 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm
The Political Mind in 2020
Worldviews, Politics, Talking Points
George Lakoff will talk about the frames that are defining, confining, and elucidating the 2020 campaigns and how we can help shape the process. A deep thinker and meticulous researcher, Lakoff is also a riveting presenter. He deeply understands the politics of our time and the underlying beliefs that define them. The evolving nature of Lakoff’s work means that each presentation is new and up to date. Don’t miss this extraordinary presentation and preparation for the 2020 election!
George Lakoff recently retired as Distinguished Professor of Cognitive Science and Linguistics at UC Berkeley. He is a world renowned cognitive scientist and linguistics professor. He has also taught at Harvard and the University of Michigan. Today, he is the Director of the Center for the Neural Mind & Society. The center has two parts: a core team of experts on the science of the neural mind, and a network of reserach partners, labs, and other centers run by UC Berkeley faculty.
Lakoff’s books, which will be available at the event, include Don’t Think of an Elephant (updated), The Political Mind, Moral Politics, Thinking Points, Metaphors We Live By, and others. There will be plenty of time for Q&A and book
