Event Details

This talk will be about whether we, as academics, have a role on influencing students’ neoliberal beliefs, values, and attitudes.

Every ideology has its human model. Since classic liberalism, we have been talking about homo economicus who are capable of taking rational decisions in order to get the best possible result for themselves. Even though many research claim that this is a flawed model, or neoliberalism’s human model is way more different than homo economicus; the fact that ideologies influence the way we think, how we interpret, live, and understand the world around us, is undeniable. This talk will be about whether we, as academics, have a role on influencing students’ neoliberal beliefs, values, and attitudes.

Refreshments available. There will be a chance to ask questions at the end of the presentation.

The seminar will be live-streamed and questions can be asked by email.
