Hungary : Summer Course-FREEDOM AND EXPERIENCES OF SUBJUGATION

The 2-week summer course in Budapest aims to conduct a careful, critical analysis of debates about the nature of freedom (or liberty), its relation to concepts such as autonomy, rights, and democracy, and attend to the social implications of various dominant understandings of freedom in the contemporary global context. At the same time, we will examine accounts of experiences of what has been labeled "subjugated" and "oppressed" existences, both from the first- and third-person point of view. We will attend to the question of interpretation, looking closely at issues of cross-cultural communication and the dangers of cultural imperialism.

Applications are encouraged  from graduate students, junior faculty and researchers. M.A. level course work in philosophy, political science, sociology, gender studies or race studies is required.
