KTH:s kollegiala forum:
Forskarens samhällsroll i konfliktfyllda tider Samverkan är inskrivet som en av universitetets tre uppgifter och diskussionen om forskningens relevans är livaktig. Men vi talar mer sällan om när och om det är ett tvingande krav. När en fråga som forskningen intresserat sig för blir politisk och kontroversiell, bör forskare då bringa reda i diskussionen? Eller finns det tvärtom gränser för en forskares samhälleliga engagemang? 17 februari inleder Folke Tersman, professor i praktisk filosofi vid Uppsala universitet och ställföreträdande VD på Institutet för framtidsstudier, KTH:s kollegiala forum med en presentation av olika perspektiv och överväganden i relation till vår samhällsroll.
