The Nils Klim Symposium is organized annually as a collaboration between the Nils Klim Laureate and the Holberg Prize.
Having doubt is human. Everyone knows that feeling. But why do we doubt? What is the origin and the purpose of doubt? How does doubt affect us as individuals, in our private and professional lives? How do expressions of doubt affect social interactions and policy preferences? And if we were to study human doubt, how would we do that? DOUBT: Interdisciplinary perspectives is an international event that brings together scholars of anthropology, linguistics, management, psychology, public policy, theology, and philosophy to shed light on the phenomenon of doubt.
