International Course of Lectures: "Social Movements and Adult Education" (MA: EAE Modul 2a) - Einzelansicht

The lectures will give attention to examples of different social movements, e.g. worker's movement, women's movements and human rights movement. We ask, which aims social movements have, how and why they came into life, how learning in social movements take place and to what extend social movements and Adult Education have an impact on each other. In the accompanying seminar we compare the different social movements and deepen the discussions from the lectures.
