The Department of Sociology, Faculty of Social and Political Sciences, Gadjah Mada University (UGM) Holds an Open Guest Lecture on Schutz’s Phenomenology

Yogyakarta, March 4, 2026 — The Department of Sociology, Faculty of Social and Political Sciences, Universitas Gadjah Mada (FISIPOL UGM), held an online open guest lecture entitled “The World of Phenomenology from Schutz’s Outlook” on Wednesday (March 4). This academic event featured Argentine phenomenologist Prof. Carlos Belvedere, a lecturer at the University of Buenos Aires, who examined phenomenology through the perspective of Alfred Schutz.In his presentation, Prof. Belvedere emphasized that his approach was not a study of the history of thought, but rather a reflection of the practice of phenomenology itself. “My perspective is not that of a historian, but that of a phenomenology practitioner,” he said. He then explored the concept of epoché and its significance in the development of science, inviting participants to reflect on the relationship between science and philosophy, and questioning whether the phenomenological perspective in scientific research is merely an application of philosophical ideas or a reflective foundation for the process of knowledge production.

The discussion, moderated by Delta Fera Apriani, an alumna of the Department of Sociology, Faculty of Social and Political Sciences, Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM), was designed to enrich understanding of the theoretical foundations of modern sociology from a phenomenological perspective. The enthusiasm of the participants, consisting of students and academics, was evident in the interactive question-and-answer session, which deepened the dialogue between the speaker and the audience.

This guest lecture also reflects the institution’s commitment to supporting the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly point 4 on Quality Education, by expanding access to global academic discourse through open and collaborative forums. Furthermore, the cross-border collaboration between Indonesian and Argentinian academics aligns with point 17 on Partnerships to Achieve the Goals, which emphasizes the importance of international networking and cooperation in strengthening higher education capacity and developing inclusive and sustainable science. read more
