The course on WRITING IN THE HUMANITIES AFTER THE FALL OF COMMUNISM aims to reflect critically upon the preconditions of writing in the humanities, particularly in the context of communism as an intellectual burden, still relevant after twenty years. It considers a basic dilemma of the humanities in Central-Eastern Europe: numerous areas of study are condemned to the task of implementing the intellectual and methodological overthrow of the regime, as well as reevaluating the categories it had imposed on their discourses. Crucial parts of the analysis concern the status of the visual arts in the face of the post-communist experience (globalism, neoliberalism, democratization). The condition of literature and philosophy (such as post-Marxism) will also be discussed

For several centuries now mathematics has been a primary tool of modern science and technology, twin pillars of the modern world. It is therefore startling to note the marginal place of higher mathematics within current mainstream thought and culture, and the widespread alienation from the field by both intellectuals and the broader public. Unlike humanistic fields that have narrative at their core, higher mathematics has become practically irrelevant to mainstream cultural discourse. The summer school on MATHEMATICS AND NARRATIVE: BRINGING MATHEMATICS BACK TO THE CULTURAL MAINSTREAM confronts this fundamental anomaly by noting that it is based on the apparent opposition between mathematics and narrative fields.

The course on SUSTAINABLE HUMAN DEVELOPMENT: FROM INTERNATIONAL FRAMEWORKS TO REGIONAL POLICIES is conducted jointly by the Central European University and the United Nations Development Programme. The course will have an explicit policy focus and will bring together practitioners, mid- and high-level policy makers, academia, and civil society activists from countries in the region as well as experts on issues of HD and MDGs, both from UNDP, CEU and other European institutions.
The overall aim of this summer school is to address the deficits in understanding and applying the concept of sustainable human development to development challenges in the region. It will consist of several mutually reinforcing topics and will be conducted involving a wide range of actors - experts from Bratislava Regional Centre, universities in the region, UNDP country offices. Experience so far suggests that a combination of theoretical exposure and practical experience makes the course unique and interesting for participants not just from Europe and CIS but also beyond the region.

The course on ASPECTS OF RESPONSIBILITIES focuses on moral responsibility as a central problem of philosophical ethics and metaphysics. It also explores the relationship between responsibility and other important philosophical concepts such as agency, freedom, blame, moral luck, emotions, punishment, character and institutional action. By considering different aspects of responsibility, this course seeks to show why responsibility matters and how much really turns on our perception of ourselves as responsible beings.

Beliefs and Decisions: of Minds and Machines
|
The aim of the course on "Beliefs and Decisions: of Minds and Machines" is to demonstrate that some basic principles of decision making can provide a unifying framework for constructing intelligently behaving artefacts on one hand, and for explaining human and animal cognition both in simple as well as in the most complex domains of behaviour on the other hand. To achieve this, lectures will progress via domains of gradually increasing abstraction that machine learning algorithms and humans deal with starting from representing uncertainty, beliefs about unobserved quantities, through learning internal models of the environment, to making adaptive and successful decisions.
