We are happy to announce a 5-day course on contemporary political philosophy, which will take place on January 12, 19, February 2, 16, and March 2, 2018 at varying locations (Utrecht, Leiden, Nijmegen).

The general idea of the course is to have a discussion in seminar style. All invited speakers deliver two texts. Speaker and students together discuss the text; no lectures are given. All speakers are invited for the whole day, and engage in general discussion at the end of the day. This seminar in political philosophy aims to give PhD candidates a sense of the ‘state of the art’ in the discipline. For each session, a scholar working on that topic at a Flemish or Dutch university will select the texts and join the discussion. We aim to create an atmosphere where junior and senior researchers explore philosophical questions together in an open and constructive manner.

Further information and a registration form can be found on the event’s webpage.
