Scientific cognition: Aljoša Kravanja & Prof. Dr. Jan Slaby - Duration: 41:38.

Black Box: In the Background of Scientific Discoveries

Jan: Okay, so yeah, I'm Jan Slaby. I'm a

professor of philosophy in Berlin at

the Free University, the area of philosophy of

mind. My interests lie mainly in the

intersection of the social and the mental, so

what I call at times "a political

philosophy of mind", and in this

perspective you ask how specific living

conditions, institutions, technology,

social practices, media intersect with

our individual mentality, our

subjectivity, how subjectivity is

basically formed. So it's really

a perspective that wants to

understand the human subject in its time,

in its specific social setting. So

that's where philosophy probably

intersects with a lot of other

disciplines like social science, cultural

studies and anthropology and so on. And

of course, it is an interesting, I hope,

perspective on the way certain sciences,

fields in the cognitive sciences, are

relevant to how the mind actually works

and .. I think, Aljoša, you

are interested in similar topics because

you're also a philosopher, so maybe we can

kind of agree quite early on

that we are in a specific relation to

cognitive science and the mind sciences.

Probably not a relation of

wholehearted endorsement, more of a

skeptical critical position, probably a

certain distance to these fields, while

we are still in a way interested in them

fascinated by them ... Maybe that's

the first question to you also,

after you introduce yourself, how your

specific relationship is to cognitive

science and the neuroscience, maybe the

brain and the brain science. I

can also tell you a little bit about my

specific take here. But I don't want

to speak too long at the beginning, so

I'm eager to learn what your

perspective is. Aljoša: My name is Aljoša Kravanja

and I'm currently

a researcher in fields of criminology and

philosophy and I also

work as a translator, mostly from

French. The projects that I've been

currently working for is of course my

thesis that I just finished, just a few

months ago, on the philosophy of Immanuel Kant

and, yeah, that's basically it.

I think that Kantian philosophy and

philosophy of German idealism do have a special

relationship to neuroscience, because at the

first glance, they're dealing with a

common topic. You know, subjectivity. But

from two completely opposite or

different viewpoints, so I'm kind of

professionaly inclined to be critical

towards neuroscience and cognitive science,

absolutely. And I think I'll try to

overcome it somehow by

thinking about it,

not only in critical terms.

Jan: On Kant: that's a whole universe. Aljoša: Yes.

Jan: Was it on the Critique of Pure Reason,

was it on the theoretical philosophy, or

something else?

Aljoša: I've written my thesis on Critique of

Judgment, and the main reason is

that I actually tried to sidestep

main theoretical issues of Kantian philosophy.

Because Critique of Pure Reason is,

I think, justifiably read

as the main critique of the three works.

But yeah, so that's the main reason

I wrote my thesis on the Critique of Judgement.

There are actually two paragraphs or

short segments in Critique of Judgement

that have been

read very widely by people such as Schelling

or Hegel, those are paragraphs 76 and 77 and

basically what I've done in my

thesis is, I analyzed those two

paragraphs kind of very deeply

and that's that. Jan: Well that's

far removed from much of what you get in

neuroscience for sure.

It always strikes me on what

high a conceptual level Kant was actually

working. And as philosophers we kind of, we

can grapple all our lives with just 50

pages of his work, I would say. Or with

just the concept of understanding, or the

concept of judgment. I mean, Kant's

theory of judgment is amazing from

today's perspective and also so little

understood in many quarters of

philosophy. And then going from there to,

you know, to all the big claims about the

brain and about how neuroscience can now

understand how decision-making, for

instance, works or how well also certain

perceptual judgments are arrived at. That can

be quite hard and that was

part of my way into a critical

perspective on neuroscience. Some of this

discrepancy in terms of the level of

understanding that is actually reached

on the one side and then the

exaggerated appearance of

neuroscientists in today's climate where

science has a certain high standing in

society, regardless of whether people

understand what the science is actually

about, or how it actually works to have

a study in neuroscience that actually has

any results and that actually tells us

anything about, well, mental phenomena. And,

well, all these difficult processes are

really hardly understood but still

there's some sort of default credibility

lent to all of the, well, narratives or

results or whatever comes out of

neuroscience and that can make it

quite difficult to, well, to

position yourself as a philosopher

outside of the narrow circles of the

Kant insiders or Hegelians or so

on so. Has it been an issue for you

during your studies or during

interaction in university or was it not

a problem that you live in a time, where

neurocognitive sciences seem so prominent

culturally? Aljoša: Yeah, I think that, yeah, I

think it's a broader problem, I guess not

only limited to, of course, to my

situation, that the scientific

and mostly philosophical projects that get

funding, that get the state funding,

usually have to be

concerned with neuroscience. Or they have

to be termed in the framework of neuroscience.

So, for instance, it's more likely to

get state funding if you frame

a project in criminology

in neuroscientific terms

than in, you know, conventional terms of

criminology. So, of course as you know most

likely, the same is with philosophy. It's

harder to get a state funded project that

deals only with Kant or with German

idealism. You have to add that, you know,

neuroscientific part. And the problem is

of course that this is usually just,

you know, just an artificial add-on for

something. It really doesn't

concern the actual theory that you're dealing with.

So yeah, I think that neuroscience,

not as a science, but rather the

standings

it has in society, is problematic in this view.

Jan: Yeah, well, that was part of what a

few collaborators and I thought a few

years ago, that we can take neuroscience

actually as an angle or as a

a topic to investigate the current

situation of,

well ... What it means to be human today or

what it means to do research on the

human. So you could kind of turn the

tables on your signs a little bit and

take it as a test case of how certain

types of knowledge are produced in this

specific setting. Like how, for instance,

some studies are just done because they

will generate public impact. Like work on

the adolescent brain or work on the

criminal brain. You could

be sure that, well, there will be

some sort of uptake and you will get

funding for it and so on and also

work on, well, the alleged

non-existence of freedom of the will,

that we are all determined and so on, or that

there's some programming in

the brain that is from the stone age. So

there are all these kind of shared nice

narratives there that, I don't know,

the public can understand. But when

you, when you try to investigate

neuroscience and such, you kind of see

how knowledge production in neoliberal

times actually works. And I don't mean

this in the sort of shady blame game

type of thing, but rather ... You can really

see also how professional scientists are

forced to channel their topics and also

the whole outlook of their research

groups through these discourses. And

there are various examples, like work on

empathy

it's a big industry. Social

cognition and empathy, where you

see that. And that's really

interesting work to be done here, also

in social psychology. But it always has

to be kind of framed to a certain

template to make it, I don't know, timely,

to make it understandable. And

that's kind of interesting because you

see that there are... I think there are a lot

of, kind of well-meaning people, of

course, in neuroscience but they have

to play by these

rules of framing the topics in

specific ways. And at the same time you

see these discourses. How all these

specific discourses about subjectivity,

how our time actually understands people,

how people should be governed, how, well...

What image of education do you have,

what image of child-rearing

do you have, what image of

dangerous subjects do you have and what

sorts of policies are put forth. And you

can kind of always see, it is almost a

Hegelian sense, you see how neuroscience

encapsulates some sort of

essence of our time in these

entanglements with different practices.

And I think that that was our attempt to

kind of turn the tables and take

critical neuroscience as a way to

do philosophy of our time. So it kind

of mixes philosophy of science and

critique of science with a kind of a

more sociologically diagnostic approach

to the present. And I think that's

one way to, as a philosopher, to kind of

keep your sanity in and of

these developments. Aljoša: So you think that

neuroscience is like naturally

compatible with

neoliberalism? Jan: Well, in some respects I

think it's kind of a poster child of

neoliberalism on various levels.

For one, the way it has taken up certain

discourses. Well, you could talk about

networks, brain networks and network

subjectivities. You could speak about

human capital theory. How there's this

certain background discourse in

neuroscience where, which is about,

well, the resources, the potentials that

an individual has and that you can

cultivate in order to have it marketable

and ready for you. And I think this

is the discourse that kind of one-to-one was

adopted by neuroscience. Also in the

in the whole discussion of

neuroplasticity.

The message is: "Well, your brain is

not hardwired, but you can make it better

if you can cultivate it. And it's

flexible, it makes you kind of have to be

a network individual in the workplace

and so on." And I wouldn't say that it's

kind of a

straightforward adoption, but it's a

sort of tested osmosis of

discursive elements.

Aljoša: I think that coincidences played much role in

my interest in Immanuel Kant.

The fact is that in Ljubljana we have

quite a strong school of

Kantian and also Hegellian

interpretation. We have scholars such as

Žižek, Mladen Dolar and Alenka Zupančič,

Rado Riha, Zdravko Kobe,

who are well-known not only in Slovenia, but

also abroad. So I think that in Slovenia,

or at my Faculty of Arts, it's

kind of natural that if you want to do philosophy

seriously, then you study Kant or Hegel.

It's a kind of a convention.

And the reason why I chose Critique

of Judgment as my topic of

the dissertation is the one I

mentioned earlier, because I wanted to

sidestep the main theoretical issues

and deal with those more marginal problems of

Kantian philosophy. But like on the

more general level, the reason why I

write my articles

is because I just want to

figure things out. You know, because I like

to see how concepts interact and then perhaps

present that conceptual interactions in a way

that is enjoyable to other people.

And I think that is my main motivation

of production.

Jan: These are great answers to the very

difficult question for a philosopher,

"What is the motivation?" I mean there's

always a sort of general thing that you

want to figure things out for humanity

or what it means to be human and

i think that this is a general level of

a very deep motivation that

probably makes you a philosopher. But

then of course you were a child of your

times and we already spoke about

neuroscience and

the kind of urge to respond to

developments that we find problematic. So

there's a sort of critical impulse

and so for me part of the motivation has

always been this squaring these two

things. Like there's a legacy of

philosophy where you have authors from

2,500 years ago that kind of speak to us

still and tell something about human

nature or about what it means to be human,

but at the same time we know that we

live in a time where things are

radically different than anytime

before in history. And it is

probably a very dangerous time also

politically and so and philosophy has,

I think, this urge to kind of respond to

what's going on out there in the

world of politics and in history. So, and

of course it's very difficult to bring

these aspects together. But on

the other hand it's obvious that when

you read Kant, for instance, or Aristotle,

that they speak directly not only to a

perennial dimension of what it means to

be a rational being,

but they kind of directly address our

political nature and address an ethos

in each of us, and a sort of

rationality. And sometimes, although we

tend to be kind of pragmatic about our

decisions and we have to navigate

complex institutional landscape, there's

still sort of fascination in

philosophy to square human nature on the

one hand, or the nature of being

a rational being, with addressing the

concrete historical time in which we are

living.

Jan: And I think that's one of the

questions I think you wanted us to

address. The way that our research is

responding to the current situation,

politically, historically or whether we

are just imersed in academic affairs. And

I think all off our answers point in this

direction that

these things go together. But it's

always uneasy. It's always an uneasy

interaction between the vagaries of the

day and what philosophy is about

conceptually. So I wonder how you, how

you respond to this challenge of being

up to your time and at the same

time standing in this perennial

conversation of philosophy? Aljoša: Yeah, I think that fundamentally

there are two ways that philosophy can

address the problems of

its time. One is to see in what is

actual, in what exists today, a particular

case of already known general

philosophical notions. And the other way which is,

I think, fundamentally different is that

philosophy can understand its own

actuality or contemporary existence and

society as case of something new, that

has to be thought in a radically new way.

I think that philosophers

are naturally

inclined to see, to actually think in the

first way. You know, to see what is

actual merely as a particular case for

general philosophical notions. And you know,

you see Trump and you see Trump's victory

or Brexit and you say: "A-ha, look.

There's a return of the

notion of sovereignty," or something like that.

Or you can

sidestep that inclination and

try to think of things

as something radically new. The

second way perhaps is harder, but

philosophers such as Michelle Foucault or Hannah Arendt

tried to, explicity tried to go that way.

And I think that, yeah, we should follow

their example. Jan: Maybe there's a

middle way when you when you see how the

philosophical ethos probably is affected

by the current climate. So it's not really...

It must not be on the

level of contents, concepts, questions you

ask, but probably on the way that you

position yourself or the way that you ...

what issues you find suddenly

urgent. I mean, there was a time in the

nineties when I was trained and

analytical philosophy, people were kind

of happy to to talk about very tiny

conceptual issues that were of no

relevance whatsoever, you could say, to

general human affairs. And you could

say, well, at least in the West it was the

kind of time when people were well-off

and the big problems seemed to be settled,

you know, and it was sort of boring time

where people had time to you know

consume or do intricate little things

for their passions. And now that has

changed a little bit, I think. Now there's,

I see it in my students, they are very eager

to address topics of political relevance.

Be it in terms of race or the rise of

populism. I work a lot on emotion and

affect and it was also a long time in

philosophy where emotion theory was kind

of boring. It was about, well, media

amplified political affect, it's about

hatred, it's about climate of fear, the

way we find things relevant. And also

how, on what level you formulate your

philosophical question, so maybe that's a

that's another factor.

Well speaking of the topic of,

speaking of affect, have you ever thought

about affect or emotion in your

philosophy or is that something that you

have never thought about? Aljoša: Well, a few years ago I

actually wrote an article about Dostoievsky

and the notion of

suffering, which was

dealing mostly with affectivity.

And I found the philosophy

of Michel Henry extremely interesting

especially in this view. But yeah,

what I noticed this year while dealing

with Critique of Judgement is how Kantian

take to the notion of affectivity in

Critique of Judgement is actually now always

secondary. Like, you have this first layer,

which is the layer of judgment, and then only

secondary perhaps Kant's analyses

get to the analysis of affectivity. Yeah,

I found that quite interesting and this is

perhaps the general problem with

Kantian thing. Jan: Yeah, we should not go there, otherwise we

would use all our time speaking about

Kant's theory of judgment.

I think one point that we are expected to

address is creativity and thought, and I

think we also, I would say we have talked

about that already, that the way I

think creativity happens, at least for me,

is often about responding to

things that kind of concern my wider

circle of influence. So it's about what

happens in conversations, what happens

with people that are, well, show up in

seminars or at workshops. So that's an input

but of course it's always a difficult

question for philosophers to ask about

what the sources of your creativity are.

And I kind of, I'm almost a little

embarrassed by this question apart from,

you know, all these sort of trivialities

about, "Oh well, yeah, it's

conversing with people and, well,

sometimes we are kind of reading a big

philosopher and we get inspired." But I think

I don't really know what makes

me, the little creativity I have, I

don't know where it comes from actually,

so maybe you have a better answer?

Aljoša: Yeah, I noticed a general pattern,

at least in my writing, that

like my most general creative

process is, starts, begins usually with

discovering an interesting idea. An idea that

at least at first sight seems interesting to me.

Then when I start

writing about it, then I usually find

out that that idea is actually crappy

or, you know, false or a new stereotype.

And then what I

actually write about is precisely the

reason why that first idea is crappy,

you know. And I think that that is the most general

work process, at least for my work,

that perhaps all the others might recognise with

them as well. Jan: That sounds

plausible. We kind of litter our way with

mistakes and errors and wrong turns,

and, yeah. Maybe that's really different

in philosophy than in

other fields but I am not sure.

Jan: Well, the public. That's a, that's our

topic, and I mean. I guess, it's again

an answer that we have to give here

that is kind of mixed and balanced and

and says, well, on the one hand

we are funded by the public,

most of us if we are happy enough for the job,

and the public has some sort of right

to see what we're up to and of course

our interventions, particularly

when they are critical and political,

they should have an impact. And so I can

easily tell people why I critique

neuroscience because I think the real

waste of money happens here, when you

have a research program that is funded

by billions and billions. Think of the

Human Brain project of the EU. It's

1 billion euros or so for the next 10

years. And I think it's very important to

make people understand that there is a

lot of problematic stuff going on in

science. And also to explain people that

it's normal that science takes risks, but

also takes wrong turns and that there's

an institutional dimension to it, that there's

a political dimension to it, and you need

to have an assessment of that, and then

at some point say, well, "Probably the

funding is misdirected here," or "We

would be very cautious about the results,"

and so on. So I think that's a

straightforward case where I think the

public can follow what we do, even people

that are not trained. In other parts of

philosophy that is more difficult. I mean,

talking about people while we inquire

into the nature of agency or

subjectivity in this sort of very

detached theoretical terms, it... i think

it's very, that there are lots of

mediated steps in between before these

issues that Kant probably grapples with

or that contemporary Kantians grapple

with, until they arrive at a point where

you can make arguments that the public

needs to respond to that. Maybe as

a Kantian, when you look at The

Contest of the Faculties or something

like that. When Kant defends the

importance of freedom for the unfolding

of rationality in a public sphere. Maybe

that's the point where you can say, well,

"Every member of the public

should be interested in that because

without it there wasn't

any sort of public anymore." So maybe you have

your take on that?

Kant is a versatile weapon.

Aljoša: Yeah, I think I really feel in the sense of...

I also think that as a philosopher that

is or at least that was funded by the

public, I do have some obligation to

present my findings in a, you know,

accessible way. In a way that is not

accessible only to professionals. Because,

like, the main output or perhaps the

only output of philosophy is of couse words.

The output of natural sciences or technical

sciences are results. You know, results

in form of concrete objects. But philosophy

in the last instance produces

words. And it is, I think, very hard if not

impossible to justify publicly funded with

philosophy that is only, you know, that's

accessible to professionals only.

And that is the case that is,

yeah, greatest and can be seen in

studying Kant, absolutely yeah.

So I agree with you. But on the other hand,

Kant himself

in The Contest of Faculties stated that the

Faculty of Arts and philosophy

in particular has an inherent relation

to the public as such, and so is

in a sense necessary for you. But if a

philosopher said or proposed such a

claim, you know, in a public space

that the public itself is in a way

dependent on him, it's, you know, an

outrageous claim in the last instance.

And philosopher,

he or she should not expect that the public

will receive that claim well, I think.

Jan: Yeah that's right. Well, we could talk all

night about Kant, I guess. I mean the

thing is you have Kant's deduction of

the categories,

I mean, the transcendental deduction and

that's probably one of the most

complicated pieces of philosophy ever to

be written down. So the thing is, you

could say, well, we need people to be

experts on this, you know, but you

cannot expect from them to kind of

really relate what's in there to

something that, you know,

a shopkeeper around the corner needs to know.

But on the other hand it's, I mean ... That's,

that's the thing. The wager is that

it's about human understanding, the human

subjectivity, so the very core of what we

are. And it's kind of not surprising that

it's a riddle and that it's

very difficult. And so I think we have to

find a way just to convey to people what

is that game that Kant is playing, while we

shouldn't probably play it in a way that

everybody can follow, because that

is probably impossible. We could kind of

present to people what the stakes are of

this sort of philosophy. And then there's

some, that it matters how we think about

ourselves as, well, self-determined,

potentially irrational, free individuals,

and what that means. Or what

would it mean to not think of ourselves

in these terms, but kind of to deny

freedom, to deny autonomy, to deny the

possibility of self-determination,

what would that mean?

So, uhm, but I don't know. Maybe Kant

is a good topic to settle on

here. Because it kind of carries this

understanding of,

well yeah, what it means, why is it a

good idea to be a rational being, even

though it's hard. Aljoša: Absolutely. Kant is

interesting here also

because he himself was not only a

professional philosopher but also an author of, you know,

popular essays written about

everything from human races to yet

politics and reading habits. So I

think Kant himself is in a way an example

of how a philosopher even today, I think, you know,

may present his philosophical

findings also in

an accessible way. Jan: Right

yeah and that's why I would

understand my own project also as a

Kantian project in a certain sense of

critique. And the concept of,

Kant's concept of critique is

very complex, of course, but there's also

the sort of straightforward sense of

critique, namely that there's so much

bullshit around. And you can, if you have,

if you have a personal

understanding at some point, you

have probably an obligation to tell

people what is bullshit out there. And

well, that's some of what I, we have

tried to do with certain concepts like

empathy, like resilience, like, I don't

know, neuroplasticity, that there are

certain things that are kind of exported

from science into the public, that are

really, well, either incoherent or

problematic or politically one-sided or...

In terms of the concept of

resilience, which is, that embodies a

whole worldview of, about subjects that

struggle for self-preservation and try

to get ready for catastrophe. And there's

a whole outlook in which the world seems

to be on the verge of catastrophe and so

on. But on the other hand, the term is

promoted by certain agencies that kind

of want a specific type of subject. So,

and I think that's actually kind of a

straightforward sense of critique of

enlightening people about what's

actually in this concept and why it is

probably not such a good idea to

promote it in that in that way. And I

think that's still in a broader

sense a Kantian endeavor.

Aljoša: Additional problem is that, you

know, that public will, especially today I

think, always ask you back: "Who are

you to tell us what is bullshit?"

I think that there is a general

resentment towards, exactly towards

professionals that try, you know, to

determine what is bulshit and what is not

bullshit.

For instance, let's take the

term "fake news" that has recently, you

know came to the front.

I think that this term is in

itself a bit patronising, you know, to the

public, and the public of course

quickly recognized that. And I

think that especially today

the task of public critique performed by

philosophers or

intellectuals in general is, you know, how should I

put it, at risk, you know? Or perhaps less

effective than it was in nineties, I think,

or in eighties. And I think that

that has something to do with

the internet. You know, with communication being

accessible to everyone and professionals

not having privileged

voice in discussion. So I think that

today the task of critique is hard.

Jan: Yeah, it's hard. But I mean, I wonder what do

you think is a right response to

that situation? Would you say that

philosophers just have to go on doing

what they do because they know that they

are doing the right thing? Or would you say

that because the parameters, the whole

outlook of the public sphere has changed

because of the internet, that we have to

change our ways, our practices, the

way we address the public, the modes of

communication, habits of publication and

so on?

What would you think? I'm very interested

in that.

Aljoša: Yeah, that's a hard question.

But I think that the most general

strategy should be that

public intellectuals should not present

themselves as professionals, but rather

as someone actually from

the public or from the people. Because

the main reason, I think, that

professional speech today produces

so much resentment is that people,

that because intelectuals present

themselves as

professionals. And that, I think, naturally

produces resentment reaction. So

yeah, I think the general strategy is that

intellectuals should avoid

presenting themselves as intelectuals.

Jan: Okay, well, I see where you're

driving it, but it's a slippery

slope, of course. I mean you cannot,

you cannot completely hide your education,

your status, your standing and so on.

Although I see what you're driving it.

I think what part of the point might be

to use all sorts of venues for

communication. Not only the official

interview or the newspaper article and

all these, you know, big stages where

professors usually speak from, but rather

engage in all sorts of informal

communication channels, but then make

sure that you are kind of doing what you

always did. Namely, be a critical voice.

Be a voice of reason and be consistent in

that and not kind of, you know, faking it

a little bit in order to be

better perceived.

Jan: For me the best way to work

collectively was usually a partnership

with one individual. Like, two people

writing a paper. Or two people, maybe

three, but mostly two people that

kind of have some overlap in their

intuitions or in their

intentions, and then find a common ground.

But you cannot do it all the time,

because then you have to move on to do

something on your own or find someone

else for a different interest. So I have

a rather big network of co-authors. And

sometimes I see them only, like, for

one week a year. We do a little thing and

then, you know, do something together, and

I don't see the person for another year

and so on. But that's great because at

some point you have a certain... There are

certain ideas that resonate with certain

people, although you don't have much in

common with these people. And so I always

look for these sort of alliances. It's

not the same as a scientific research

group where people are hired in the same

lab and interact every day, and that's

more difficult probably. I don't know.

Aljoša: Yeah, I also think that writing

philosophy in co-authorship is actually quite

hard, because, like, the main

thing that philosopher,

the main principle that philosopher has to follow

is consistency. And you don't,

you can't be consistent with someone

else. You can only be consistent with

yourself. And I think that

philosophy in that view is... Writing philosophy

in co-authorship is, in that view, quite hard because, like,

philosophy doesn't have this external

object that various authors can, you

know, agree upon,

but rather, it produces text and that

text has to have its own internal

consistency and I actually don't

imagine how I would write philosophy

with someone else.

Jan: Interesting, yeah. I know, I mean,

two things about that. It's always easier

when you do it in terms of the text that is

more sociological or legal. And in

neuroscience we had a lot of texts that were,

probably you could say they're science and

technology studies in the broader sense.

That was a little easier because you

could kind of divide the text up

into sections and if the sections were a

little different nobody really cared.

In philosophy you really have to look

for a person who shares an intuition

about a topic. So, and often there are people

that I I know quite well, where I think,

okay, we disagree on a lot of things but

here there's a point in Aristotle where

we agree on a certain concept and we

just write a paper on that concept and

it's still difficult. But then I think we

meet on a certain common ground -- and you

need a lot of conversation to find the

common ground -- but then it can be great

fun. And also I'm a lazy person. I like

it when someone else writes my papers and

I can send them half of the paper and

they, yeah. Philosophy can have a

characteristic motivation problem when

you're on your own all the time. It can

be really tiring. And because writing

is also, it's a hard process, I guess,

for most people, and if there's someone

else who can kind of pick up the slack

from time to time

it's great. Thanks.

Kim Jong-un plans to complete nuclear weapons development by 2017: Fmr. N. Korean diplomat - Duration: 2:22.

Thae Young-ho one of the highest ranking North Korean diplomats to defect to the South, provided

some disturbing insights to the regime's nuclear ambition, including its leader's unshakable

devotion to the program.

Connie Kim shares with us his remarks from his very first press conference in Seoul.

Appearing in front of South Korean reporters on Tuesday, the former North Korean first

minister to London said Kim Jong-un will never give up its nuclear ambitions not even if

he were given ten trillion U.S. dollars adding its leader Kim Jong-un has plans to complete

his nuclear weapons development by 2017.

"North Korea views the period between 2016 and the end of 2017 to be the optimal period

to complete its nuclear weapons development.

This is when South Korea's presidential election will be taking place and the new U.S. administration

will be going through a power transition.

There is underlying premise that both Seoul and Washington cannot enforce any physical

or military measure to halt its nuclear weapons development."

By obtaining a nuclear state status, Thae said Pyongyang is likely to seek dialogue

with Seoul and Washington and seek to lift sanctions against the regime and halt the

annual South Korea-U.S. military drills.

But, the former North Korean official was skeptical a North Korea-U.S. summit would

happen.

With the incoming U.S. administration being a Republican one, chances of a meeting are

slim as the conservative party has always had a hardline stance against the regime.

"Whether there is any possibility for the summit for the U.S. and North Korea, I don't

think I'm in a position to give you any comment on it.

It should be decided by the next U.S. President and Kim Jong-un.

But I do not think it is likely to happen."

Having entered South Korea in August, Thae said his disillusionment with Kim's reign

of terror had prompted his defection and pledged to devote his life to the reunification of

the Korean peninsula.

To fullfill this aim in South Korea, most North Korean experts believe Thae will actively

carry out public activities.

Safety versus development? Korea's nuclear energy development today - Duration: 3:16.

Tuesday was Nuclear Energy Day in Korea... a day to be reminded of the benefits and convenience

of nuclear power... when used with caution.

Recently though, safety concerns are overshadowing the positive aspects the cost efficient energy

source.

Kwon Soa weighs the option: should Korea continue to rely on nuclear plants.

The recent box-office hit "Pandora" has opened the eyes of many… to the possible consequences

of a nuclear accident.

The timing of the movie's debut a few weeks ago may have been a coincidence, but it came

just a few months after South Korea was hit by the strongest earthquake ever recorded

in the country.

"Because the reactors are far away from Seoul, I'm not seriously concerned,... but since

the earthquake in Gyeongju, I've become quite anxious at the idea of building more."

"I think the situation is very serious, especially because people live very close to the reactors.

I'm worried that if an earthquake struck the residents would be badly affected."

South Korea is home to 25 nuclear reactors, with five now under construction, and four

more to come.

In fact, Korea has the most of any country in proportion to its land area.

"If an accident like the one in Fukushima occured near Korea's Gori reactors, the damage

would be much greater because there are around 22 times more people living near them."

The expert claims nuclear power is a dying business,... and that many developed countries

are getting out of it all together.

"It's not appropriate to compare South Korea to countries like Germany and Italy.

They're exceptions in terms of energy policy.

South Korea's major export items used to be semiconductors, ships and cars.

But the latter two have been on a downward trend.

I believe nuclear will be a future growth engine and will bring many jobs for young

people."

With experts divided, it's hard for the layman to get a clear picture.

"After watching Pandora, I felt like such an accident could actually happen in our country.

I've gotten a little bit interested in the issue now, but I wish people could get more

details from the experts."

The Korea Nuclear Energy Agency, for one, hopes to give the public the information they

need.

"There is, for instance, the term 'ground acceleration,' which has been used a lot since

the recent quake.

A nuclear plant is safe at 0-point-3 g.

The 'g' stands for gravity.

For the average person it's hard to understand.

That's why we're trying to visualize this information through infographics, internet

banners and videos."

South Korea lacks natural resources and it has put a lot of effort into developing nuclear

power.

But, it could be a good time to review the issue,... with the unpredictabilty of natural

disasters and the general public more concerned about safety.

Kim Jong-un plans to complete nuclear weapons development by 2017: Fmr. N. Korean diplomat - Duration: 2:22.

Thae Young-ho one of the highest ranking North Korean diplomats to defect to the South, provided

some disturbing insights to the regime's nuclear ambition, including its leader's unshakable

devotion to the program.

Connie Kim shares with us his remarks from his very first press conference in Seoul.

Appearing in front of South Korean reporters on Tuesday, the former North Korean first

minister to London said Kim Jong-un will never give up its nuclear ambitions not even if

he were given ten trillion U.S. dollars adding its leader Kim Jong-un has plans to complete

his nuclear weapons development by 2017.

"North Korea views the period between 2016 and the end of 2017 to be the optimal period

to complete its nuclear weapons development.

This is when South Korea's presidential election will be taking place and the new U.S. administration

will be going through a power transition.

There is underlying premise that both Seoul and Washington cannot enforce any physical

or military measure to halt its nuclear weapons development."

By obtaining a nuclear state status, Thae said Pyongyang is likely to seek dialogue

with Seoul and Washington and seek to lift sanctions against the regime and halt the

annual South Korea-U.S. military drills.

But, the former North Korean official was skeptical a North Korea-U.S. summit would

happen.

With the incoming U.S. administration being a Republican one, chances of a meeting are

slim as the conservative party has always had a hardline stance against the regime.

"Whether there is any possibility for the summit for the U.S. and North Korea, I don't

think I'm in a position to give you any comment on it.

It should be decided by the next U.S. President and Kim Jong-un.

But I do not think it is likely to happen."

Having entered South Korea in August, Thae said his disillusionment with Kim's reign

of terror had prompted his defection and pledged to devote his life to the reunification of

the Korean peninsula.

To fullfill this aim in South Korea, most North Korean experts believe Thae will actively

carry out public activities.
