Hike & Think: Good and evil

  • Hike with lecture elements & discussion
  • Max von Sponeck & Carsten Dolbert
  • In dialogue, Social Activity

The DAI Library’s Philosophy Walks combine important philosophical topics with an extended walk in nature.

That at least some human actions differ not only in their “objectively” describable, but also in their so-called moral characteristics, is an intuition that can be found in every culture and at every time: One action is “good”, another action is “evil”. Is this assessment a culturally bound subjective feeling or does it impose itself on all observers from different cultures in the same way?

Dr. Max von Sponeck is a lecturer at the Department of Philosophy at the University of Heidelberg and at the Heidelberg University of Education. He specializes in the contemporary philosophy of mind.

Carsten Dolbert is a geoscientist by training. He works as a project coordinator, has trained as a systemic counselor and therapist and has been a volunteer in international disaster relief for many years.
