Prof. Christian Thies has been a teaching professor of philosophy at the University of Passau since 2009. In his teaching he covers the entire breadth of his subject. In the books he has brought out so far, the questions with which he has occupied himself include the following: how is the situation of the individual changing in modern society? What is Man? What is the meaning of life? What in fact is culture? There is also some emphasis on moral problems caused by the economisation and digitalisation of the world in which we live.

"In philosophy, research is above all a matter of thinking intensively about questions that are central to our life, and that is a process that can take years. Conversations with colleagues, but also with the students in the teaching events, are an important part of it. I base my thought processes on the classical works from the history of philosophy and insights gained in the empirical sciences, but also on ideas from the religions and arts. In most cases, no additional funds are necessary at all; it is more important for my philosophic research for me to be alone and free."
