New student association for Muslim students and interested parties

After a long break of several years, the time has come again. Since February 2024, there is once again an officially recognized Muslim Student Association in Erlangen, which is supported by the student representation (StuVe). We, as MHG Erlangen, see ourselves as a contact point for Muslim students and interested parties at FAU Erlangen-Nuremberg. Anyone looking for a family atmosphere and social contacts will find what they are looking for here. Cultural activities, science-oriented events and (inter-)religious dialogues characterize the MHG Erlangen.
Take a look at our website  and our social networks, we look forward to seeing you!

Platypus reading group: What is „left“? What is „marxism“?

The historical roots of the Left and Marxism in the bourgeois revolution of the 17th-18th centuries and its 19th century crisis in capitalism are addressed through readings from Karl Marx and the background in radical bourgeois philosophy of Rousseau, Kant, and Hegel. 20th century attempts to recover Marx and Marxism’s political consciousness by the Frankfurt School and in the 1960s-70s “New Left” frame the problem of consciousness of the Left in the mid-late 20th century leading to the present, through writings by Karl Marx, Theodor Adorno, Max Horkheimer, Georg Lukacs, Karl Korsch, and Leszek Kolakowski.
