However interesting the 2016 U.S. presidential election was, this year’s match between Donald Trump and Joe Biden has already, to coin a phrase, trumped it.

I would like to introduce my readers to art projects that involve the audience in one way or another. Such participatory projects have been gaining more and more ground; we live in times of great social, humanitarian, political, and environmental challenges, and artists have an important role to play in bringing these challenges to the […]

In the article, The COVID-19 pandemic has changed education forever. This is how, the World Economic Forum argues that, “Globally, over 1.2 billion children are out of the classroom” due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Po téměř dvouletém výzkumu, důkladném plánování a intenzivní spolupráci s významnými partnery UNYP společně s University of Bolton oficiálně spouští nový magisterský program specializovaný na „Strategickou komunikaci“.  Pokud Vaše plány pro tento akademický rok kvůli omezeným možnostem cestovat nebo náhlým změnám v zaměstnání nevyšly a Vy přemýšlíte co s časem od konce října, velmi rádi Vás uvítáme na UNYPu v našem zbrusu […]

In the minds of most people, the news coming from almost all […]

Většina velkých filozofických teorií vznikla v obdobích krize. Velci světoví filozofové často přicházeli s převratnými myšlenkami v nelehkých časech, v časech velkých změn. Myslitelé jako byli Platón, Machiavelli, Hobbes, Locke nebo Rousseau – to je jen hrstka autorů, kterým se věnujeme v rámci kurzu „Klasičtí autoři politické teorie“.  I když je politická filozofie jeden z mých nejoblíbenějších předmětů vůbec, musím přiznat, […]
