Overview

Through conferences, workshops, podium discussions and lectures, it gives audiences insight into the work of significant contemporary thinkers, who are encouraged to cross traditional academic boundaries. It describes its thematic development and programming as an intellectual undertaking that should serve not only academic purposes but also artistic-aesthetic standards and social questions, linking the humanities, natural sciences, social sciences and cultural studies as well as the arts and religious cultures, with the aim of developing social reflection and orientation knowledge. It presents itself as an open laboratory of the spirit and seeks to help renew Potsdam's traditional role as a centre of Enlightenment in the broadest sense.
