Critics of Modernity

4 Credits

The modern world has seen tremendous transformations over the last few centuries. From industrial to political revolutions, the emergence of the modern state and global finance, trade and capitalism, and of course the proliferation of information technologies, have radically transformed the way we live. In this course we will examine and explore various examples of events, writers, political actors, artists, etc., that engage in critiques of these developments from religious, moral, political and humanistic points of view.
