Stanislav Komárek

Stanislav Komárek (1958) is a biologist, philosopher and writer, professor of philosophy and history of natural sciences at the Faculty of Natural Sciences of the Charles University in Prague.

Komárek is a critic of our contemporary society. “The pandemic and hysterical measures have accelerated the historical turning point we are currently experiencing”.
