About

The Liberal Herald is an interdisciplinary academic platform founded in late 2012 by a group of undergraduate students at the Bratislava International School of Liberal Arts (BISLA). It was born of the necessity to establish a stable intellectual forum for aspiring scholars from Central Europe and beyond. Since its inauguration, The Liberal Herald has emerged to provide both students and accomplished academics a chance to discuss pressing issues in politics, philosophy, sociology, and the arts.

The Herald’s activities have thus far consisted in a) organising an annual conference / symposium where students and scholars present essays on matters of topical interest and engage in intergenerational discourse, b) publishing the presented works in the annual volume of The Liberal Herald and c) promoting international academic events and competitions.
