Centrul de cercetare “Fundamentele modernităţii europene”
Scopul Centrului de cercetare este crearea unei ambiante intelectuale pentru studiul culturii, ideilor, stiintei, societatii si spiritualitatii secolului al XVII-lea european precum si a perioadelor care pot fi puse în relatie cu acesta. Aceasta ambianta va fi realizata prin activitati de cercetare intra- si interdisciplinara, încurajînd munca în echipa si diseminarea rezultatelor în module curriculare existente în Facultatile din Universitatea din Bucuresti sau care vor fi create la initiativa Centrului.
