The Freiburg School refers to a group of philosophers and social theorists associated with the University of Freiburg in Germany. Founded in the early 20th century, it is known for its emphasis on phenomenology and existentialism, particularly through the works of thinkers like Edmund Husserl and Martin Heidegger. The school focuses on the study of consciousness and the structures of experience. In addition to philosophy, the Freiburg School has influenced various fields, including sociology and psychology. Its members often explore the relationship between individual experience and social reality, contributing to discussions on ethics and politics. The school's legacy continues to impact contemporary thought and interdisciplinary studies.
