Jack McConell o Dubrovniku:
“First of all, it’s a beautiful place with an incredible history so it’s not at all difficult to come back. But in terms of the work it’s the diversity in the classes. At Libertas I have an opportunity to teach and exchange opinions with students from all parts of the world and that makes it exciting.”
Teme koje će pokriti na svojim predavanjima studentima Libertasa:
“This semester we’re talking a lot about what I call the “rise of the outsiders”. Most people talk about populists (of which Donald Trump is now the most famous), but I like to call them outsiders rather than populists, because what they are doing is challenging the insiders, the elite, and its happening in many states in the developed world.”
