Learning objectives
In order to adopt phenomenological analysis as a basic theoretical-methodological characteristic of phenomenological sociology as effectively as possible, in the course we analyze biopolitics and identity as the most significant phenomena of contemporary society.
Learning outcomes
At the end of the course, students will be able to critically understand the latent function of social phenomena, processes, and events and to independently expose social constructions of meaning that are immanently accepted as a natural state of affairs as binding regimes of truth within the existing structure of consciousness of an epoch.
Content
The course will be structured into 4 modules. • The first module. Introduction to phenomenological sociology. Why else sociology? Phenomenological sociology is a radical revocation of sociology itself. • Second module. Biopolitics. Conservation of the territory and care for the population. Disciplinary and biopolitical power. Disciplinary society and society of control. Communication and integration. Disposition, bare life, camp. • The third module. Medicalization of social life. Medicine as a normative system of power. Clinical, social, and structural iatrogenesis. The ideology of health. The Covid-19 pandemic is a form of non-explosive warfare. • Fourth module. Identity. Theological, political-theological, phenomenological, philosophical, geopolitical, and sociological approaches to identity.
Teaching Methods
Teaching will be conducted in the form of lectures and exercises. Lectures will be structured through thematic theoretical presentations of teaching units and discussion or conversation. The exercises will be organized through practical training. During the semester, the material covered through lectures and exercises will be partially checked through two mandatory colloquiums. After completing the pre-examination requirements (colloquium and seminar papers), students acquire the right to take the entire course material in the form of a final exam (academic talk)
