Going public: social sciences and humanities in the 21st century in Europe

This blended mobility CIVIS course will introduce participating students to problematics and applications in the field of Public Social Sciences and Humanities, with an emphasis on Anthropology, Ethnography, Literary and Folklore Studies (AELF). The ‘Public’ here means a shift in the dissemination of the knowledge that these disciplines produce, especially of that concerning issues of wider public interest, from inequalities and inequities regarding access to resources, participation and recognition, to discrimination, racism, or oppression. The ‘Public’ also means to not just work with and speak about communities, but also to actively engage with them, identify problems and work jointly on solutions.
