GOVT 3686
What Makes Us Human? An Existential Journey amidst Crisis

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2019-2020.

What sets us apart, and brings us together, as humans – and what are the socio-political implications? Seeking understanding, this course is an odyssey onto the human condition and its politics, honing together a new theoretical-empirical lens: political existentialism. Utilizing edX HOPE online course, we shall examine, one by one, a dozen themes, on both the individual/universal level and the socio-political plane: Human/nature, identity & authenticity, freedom, reflection, happiness, death & dread, meaning, morality, truth & trust, God & religion, alienation & love, and finally – hope.

When Offered Summer.
