پادکست هنگامهنقد رفیقانهاپیزود ۴۰نقد رفیقانه (Comradely Critique) نوشته Lukas Slothuusبرای کسانی که اهل فعالیت سیاسی رهایی‌بخش و کار جمعی‌اند نقد فعالیتی دائمی است. اصطلاح «نقد رفیقانه» در محافل اکتیویستی زیاد به کار می‌رود و به کار نظریه‌پردازان انتقادی و اکتیویستها میاید، اما در تحقیقات چندان توجهی بدان نشده. نویسنده ضمن مفهوم‌پردازی این اصطلاح سعی میکند نشان دهد چطور باید رفقایمان را نقد کنیم با با آنها مخالفت کنیم، بدون اینکه رابطه سیاسی یا انسانی را خراب کنیم. انتقاد از دشمن راحت است، ولی وقتی با کسی که کلی اشتراک سیاسی داریم اختلاف پیدا می‌کنیم، آن وقت است که انتقاد سخت‌تر و حساس‌تر میشود. اینجاست که بحث «نقد رفیقانه» مهم است؛ یعنی نقدی که از سر احترام، همدلی و هدف مشترک صورت می‌گیرد، نه برای خراب‌کردن یا اثبات برتری.منبع:Comradely Critique, Lukas SlothuusPolitical StudiesVolume 71, Issue 3, August 2023, Pages 714-732https://doi.org/10.1177/00323217211040011این بخش آخر از این مجموعه ۴ اپیزودی است.اپیزود ۳۷: خروج از قلعه خون‌آشام‌ها - مارک فیشراپیزود ۳۸: ۴ تز درباره رفیق - جودی دیناپیزود ۳۹: تفاوت متحد و رفیق - جودی دین2025-05-3154 min
