Main content

Disagreement among citizens in the political sphere is a persistent feature of democratic societies. This disagreement has both moral, political, and epistemic dimensions. The master class will serve as an introduction to some of these issues.

The master class will be followed by a two-day workshop. More information about the workshop is available here (internal link).
