Recognition, Authenticity and Resonance

The course comprises lectures and seminars focused on three themes: recognition, authenticity, and resonance. Part of the course content focuses on how themes in sociological theory can be used to develop a critical understanding of contemporary and current phenomena, and seminars are spent investigating how the themes covered in the course are relevant for contemporary societal phenomena. In a mandatory final seminar, students share and discuss their own plans for the individual hand-in assignment.
