Night of Ideas (Institut français des Pays-Bas)

The theme for 2021 “Proches” (Close) refers to the reduction of gaps, proximity, solidarity, sociability, a sense of community. These values seem to be increasingly subject to constraints, induced by the Covid-19 crisis or the recent terrorist attacks. But the existing tension between universalism and the notions of cultural identity and cultural relativism could be a deeper cause. This Night of Ideas, organized in partnership with OBA Amsterdam, questions French and Dutch thinkers, artists and writers on the role of education in the emergence of a citizenship based on common values and freedoms.
