Course content
Both individual experiences and the wider society can be understood as consisting of a number of interconnected social processes. Based on a detailed understanding of social interaction, we analyze the evolution of various phenomena, such as cafes, communities and public spaces, festivals and other cultural events, volunteerism, activism and rioting, and social media. The course emphasizes active and creative participation of students and can also address other current phenomena.
