Hvordan har krigen i Ukraina endret v?rt forhold til russisk litteratur? Leser vi ut i fra andre kriterier n?? Stiller vi nye, spesielle krav til forfatterne? Har vi endret oppfatning av hva som er russisk og hva som tilh?rer andre kulturomr?der?

Critical theory has long argued that therapeutic culture, whether it is the wellness wave or alternative medicine, reinforces and channels capitalism’s demands for human productivity. Suvi Salmenniemi thinks otherwise.
Innenfor kritisk teori har man lenge hevdet at terapeutisk kultur kun forsterker og kanaliserer kapitalismens krav til menneskelig produktivitet og ytelse. Suvi Salmenniemi er ikke enig.

There are several approaches to studying configuration spaces of points on curves. Examples are the Deligne-Mumford and Hassett spaces or, in the case of points on a projective line, a straightforward GIT construction. Deligne and Mostow further investigated the situation where moduli spaces of weighted points on the projective line have ball quotient models. This leads to a finite set of configuration spaces of ordered or partially ordered points on P^1. In all of these cases, the GIT compactification and the Baily-Borel compactification of the ball quotient are isomorphic. These spaces have natural (partial) desingularizations, namely the Kirwan blow-up and the toroidal compactification. It follows from results of Gallardo-Kerr-Schaffler and Kiem-Moon that, in the case of ordered configurations, the Deligne-Mostow map lifts to an isomorphism of these compactifications. This can fail for only partially ordered configurations. The main result of this talk is to explain a criterion exactly when these two compactifications coincide. This is also related to the Log Minimal Model Program. This is joint work with Yota Maeda.
