1) Update of the planning of your research program
I have now divided my thesis into four overall parts:
Part I: What are human beings?
Part II: Are human beings equals?
Part III: Are human beings meaningful equals?
Part IV: What are the implications hereof?
At present, I have a rough draft of Part I and am in the midst of writing a rough draft of Part II. I am aiming to speed up my progress in Year 2 of the PhD, and I am confident that I am on track to meeting my deadlines.
