Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

The aim of this seminar is to reflect on privileges and structures of power that have arisen from colonialism. How do we deal with these in a democratic society? Which systems and mechanisms 'hide' these privileges and what does this mean for a heterogeneous society?
In doing so, we will deal with the concepts of coloniality and decolonial thinking.
