Phenomenology, Existentialism, and Continental Philosophy

Phenomenology and Existentialism belong to the dominant philosophical movements of the 20th century and are influential today in various philosophical as well as interdisciplinary contexts. Our research group has an expertise in the classic authors such as Husserl, Heidegger, Scheler, Stein, Merleau-Ponty, Sartre, Levinas, Arendt, as well as in contemporary debates on critical and political phenomenology, intentionality and consciousness, mind and world, perception and embodiment, self and other, experience and normativity, and intersubjectivity and sociality.
