Stefan M. Seydel is regarded as a lateral thinker and critic and works in particular on the negative consequences of the Enlightenment . He sees social work as a “child of the Enlightenment” and understands profession and profession as an invitation to “work on the social”. He called for a “State 2.0” and organized events at irregular intervals under the title: “Remind - commemorate - renew”. In his texts, he mostly develops his criticism based on observation of language and everyday life. He uses the change from language, to writing, to letterpress, to the computer to describe the social change that goes with it, to mark forms of decay and to develop possible instructions for the present.

In April 2020, longtime Wikipedia author Seydel published an article in the NZZ about the opportunities and risks of the knowledge platform Wikipedia.
