He argues that today’s world requires an examination of this phenomenon beyond Cold War geopolitical divisions and highlights a global shift towards authoritarian neoliberalism, including attacks on universities, the media, and freedom of speech and thought. Fassin argues for the political urgency of intellectual work in a global moment of political anti-intellectualism.Eric Fassin is a Professor of Sociology and Gender Studies at the University of Paris 8 Vincennes - Saint-Denis, affiliated with the SOPHIAPOL research center, and a senior member of the Institut Universitaire de France.  He has been a central figure in transatlantic dialogues between France and the U.S. on questions of race, gender, sexuality, post-colonial studies, and academic freedom.  He has written many books including, more recently, La savante et le politique: Ce que le féminisme fait aux sciences sociales (with Caroline Ibos, 2025); Les Études de genre (2025) ; Misère de l’anti-intellectualisme (2024); State Anti-Intellectualism and the Politics of Gender and Race: Illiberal France and Beyond (2024). - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/new-york/state-anti-intellectualism-and-the-campaigns-against-critical-thinking/100001425811343109 - **Event Categories**: sports - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://consumer.pxf.io/c/1339408/3151484/39691?partnerpropertyid=1191892&MediaPartnerPropertyId=1191892&svlink=14105511&level=1&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.com%2Fe%2Fstate-anti-intellectualism-and-the-campaigns-against-critical-thinking-tickets-1425811343109 - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: New York - **state**: NY - **country**: United States - **location**: Maison Française - **lat**: 40.807717 - **long**: -73.96142809999999 - **full address**: Maison Française, 515 West 116th Street, New York, United States ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 10 - **organizer**: CU Maison Française (https://allevents.in/org/cu-maison-française/24633097) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/c0f300360f1f4c62cda0b1a67c413494ba260642b52b4e55335282b83aa058ba-rimg-w1170-h500-dc4b030f-gmir.jpg?v=1751595072 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/6070c724392cf68e47b5bcb8ade8575f18bfe7ef296a41a745c618703385fbc5-rimg-w400-h400-dc5f0416-gmir.jpg?v=1751595071 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Tue, 18 Nov, 2025 at 06:00 pm - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** Maison Française, 515 West 116th Street, New York, United States - **Q**: What is the ticket price? - **A:** starting from 0 up to 0 USD - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** CU Maison Française - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **A:** sports - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about State Anti-Intellectualism and the Campaigns Against Critical Thinking ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "State Anti-Intellectualism and the Campaigns Against Critical Thinking", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/c0f300360f1f4c62cda0b1a67c413494ba260642b52b4e55335282b83aa058ba-rimg-w1170-h500-dc4b030f-gmir.jpg?v=1751595072", "startDate": "2025-11-18", "endDate": "2025-11-18", "url": "https://allevents.in/new-york/state-anti-intellectualism-and-the-campaigns-against-critical-thinking/100001425811343109", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "Maison Française", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "515 West 116th Street", "postalCode": "10027", "addressLocality": "New York", "addressRegion": "NY", "addressCountry": "US" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "40.807717", "longitude": "-73.96142809999999" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "Eric Fassin: State Anti-Intellectualism and the Campaigns Against Critical Thinking, Minorities, and the Left: France, the U.S., and Beyond", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-05", "availabilityEnds": "2025-11-18", "validFrom": "2026-04-05", "lowPrice": "0.00", "highPrice": "0.00", "price": "0.00", "url": "https://allevents.in/new-york/state-anti-intellectualism-and-the-campaigns-against-critical-thinking/100001425811343109" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-05", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-04-05", "url": "https://allevents.in/new-york/state-anti-intellectualism-and-the-campaigns-against-critical-thinking/100001425811343109", "price": 0, "name": "REGISTRATION" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "CU Maison Franaise", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/cu-maison-française/24633097", "description": "All our events are free and open to all.
