What can serve as a support in a changing world? The answer to this question lies in the realm of traditional values, which are so widely discussed today. The lecture will invite listeners to view the topic of traditional values through the lens of social philosophy. It will address how value orientations are formed and changed, how they influence politics, society, and individual decisions. The lecturer will explain what a value renaissance is and how it differs from a return to the past. Participants will discuss what socio-economic processes push different countries to engage in conversations about traditions, how these discussions relate to concepts of freedom, justice, family, and the role of the state, and whether ideas of modernization and postmodernity can rely on stable norms of tradition. The lecture will interest anyone who follows public discussions, works in the humanities, or simply wants to understand themselves.
