2015 EDITION

Summer School in Global Studies and Critical Theory
 

CRITICAL THEORIES

Bologna • June 22 – July 3, 2015

 

The rise of globalization processes requires a radical redefinition of categories and analytical tools, in the direction of a growing hybridization among different traditions and points of view. The second edition of the Bologna-Duke Summer School is intended as a dialogue among these different traditions of the heterogeneous discipline known as critical theory. The 2015 edition on Critical Theories took place from June 22 to July 3, 2015 at the Department of History and Cultures at University of Bologna.
