Podcast-Episode: Transformation, Responsibility, and Philosophy

What are the possibilities of Philosophy to respond to the challenges of our times – and where do its responsibilities lie?

 

 

From November to December, our team-member Sandra Radinger completed a research stay at the University of South Eastern Norway. Together with her hosts, Michael Noah Weiss and Guro Hansen Helskog, she contributed to an Episode of the Podcast ResponsAbility - Dialogues on Practical Knowledge and Bildung in Professional Studies. Our guest: Lydia Amir. 

 

 

She shares her understanding of responsibility and possibilities of philosophy to answer to challenges of our times – and she explores some of her own experiences of transformation and motivation to take that responsibility by means of humour.
