Add a talkDetails
Since the foundation principles of thinking and acting are crucial to both world-traditions, the scheduled conference takes the different approaches within Chinese and German philosophy as a starting point for the opening of a common horizon. Thus we do not only ask for the genesis of the respective traditions, but furthermore we will try to evaluate its validity and function for a shared future.
