Platypus Affiliated Society

The Platypus Affiliated Society, established in December 2006, is a vibrant community dedicated to exploring the complexities of modern society. They host reading groups, public fora, and engage in research and journalism, all focused on the problems and tasks inherited from the 'Old' (1920s–30s), 'New' (1960s–70s), and post-political (1980s–90s) eras. This unique approach, combined with their commitment to critical analysis and intellectual discussion, has attracted a dedicated following of 17 members. The Society's influence extends beyond its online platform, with their work generating thought-provoking discussions and engaging a diverse audience interested in understanding the historical and contemporary challenges facing our world.
