VII JORNADAS DE FILOSOFÍA POLÍTICA del SFP-UB: FIGURAS DE LA EMANCIPACIÓN

Universitat de Barcelona, 15-18 November 2010

CFP:

“Figures of Emancipation” will be the topic for critical discussion of the 7th Political Philosophy Conference, convened by the Political Philosophy Seminar at the University of Barcelona. We believe that the current crisis and backward steps regarding past social achievements, along with the impoverishment of the political discourse, turn the present moment into a good one to discuss a topic such as emancipation.

Enjoy the serie "Tesis el musical" in this link and try like them to see it with a little bit of humor sense!
