Research areas
Our Centre is researching the encounter between human beings and the cultural traditions they are part of, but also contributes to.
In times when cultural diversity in the wide sense is in focus of public debate and when schools are given a central role in politics of social cohesion, the role of humanitites is of great significance.
The research in this field includes scolarly discussions about education in terms of social, cultural and individual dimensions as well as theoretical and empirical studies of teaching and learning in history, social sciences, religion philosophy. Also institutions outside of formal schooling are focused, like museums and civil society at large.
The researhc is internationally orientated and Stockholm University cooperates with research groups nationally.
