    It’s a very interesting theme since starting from Protagoras we know about the cultural relativity of values used to prove one point of view. I am eager to listen to the participants and probably will want to add my thoughts to the discussion.

    We are organizing this seminar here at the MPIL. It takes place from 8-10 June 2022, not 18-20 nor 18 – 30 June. Could you please correct the date? Thanks.

    I’m so excited for this seminar. The theme is so actual and thought-provoking. In Brazil, my country of origin, the populism that has manipulated culture, politics and education, and everyone loses with this nefarious practice. I will certainly apply for this seminar, I believe I have a lot to contribute and debate.
