When anti-democratic aspirations and contempt for humanity become popular in the public and political sphere, the boundaries of what can be said and done shift. They normalize intolerance, extremism and ideas and enemy stereotypes based on exclusion. Academic freedom and social cohesion can then be threatened. Do we want to accept such developments without objection? All members of the faculty and their cooperation partners, including those at the learning location Praxis, are called upon to stimulate discourse on this and to stand up for our principles of democratic (co)existence.
There is still no democracy worthy of its name.
Democracy is still in the making: it still has to be created or renewed, regenerated.
Jacques Derrida (1991)
The Faculty of Social Sciences is committed to a democratic way of living, working and studying together. This applies to cooperation in teaching, research and transfer activities and all related contexts, including at the place of learning practice, as well as to everyday interaction.
