Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
The major aim of the course is to provide students with perceptions of what objective or academic knowledge is or is believed to be. With regard to content a particular focus will be placed on the historical trajectories, starting from systems of faith and truth to objective knowledge and from there to contemporary discussions on the mutual interdependency between power and knowledge. In terms of method the seminar works on the basis on intense group discussions that in turn ask excellent preparation of the students beforehand.
Assessment and permitted materials
The well prepared and active participation is a part of the assessment. In the end of the seminar a written examination on selected questions will take place.
