How do social, economic and technological factors shape what we’d otherwise consider our most intimate and private moments? In her acclaimed book Labor of Love, Dr. Moira Weigel revealed how modern love in the western world was deeply intertwined with economic conditions. In this Keynote, she will reflect on the narratives of love that societal structures create and circulate, and why a science of love may not be complete without the humanities and social sciences that reveal these narratives and forces that construct them.
