Einladung zur Buchpräsentation
Demokratisierung des Wissens: Von der Wiener Methode der Bildstatistik zu
Isotype
Buchpräsentation und Diskussion mit Günther Sandner
7. Jänner 2025, 18.30 Uhr
FAKTory | Literatur, Wissen und Beratung für Studierende
Universitätsstraße 9, 1010 Wien
Mitte der 1920er Jahre entwickelte ein Team rund um den Ökonomen und
Wissenschaftsphilosophen Otto Neu rath die Wiener Methode der Bildstatistik.
Vor allem für Arbeiter*innen und an Schulen sollten soziale und ökonomische
Zusammenhänge bildhaft vermittelt werden. Austrofaschismus und
Nationalsozialismus zwangen die Gruppe zur Flucht, ihre Bildsprache aber
wurde international. Ab Mitte der 1930er Jahre hieß sie ISOTYPE
International System Of TYpographic Picture Education.
Das Buch History and Legacy of Isotype zeichnet diese Geschichte nach und
verweist auf ihre ungebrochene Aktualität wissenschaftliches Wissen in der
Gesellschaft und im politischen Diskurs zu stärken.

Invitation
Policy bias in economic research and the epistemological problems of
econometrics: Lessons for designing economic policy processes
SUERF BAFFI Bocconi webinar
Tuesday, January 14, 2025
Online, Webex, 3-4.30 pm
A recent paper finds considerable policy bias in economic research. Jelveh,
Kogut and Naidu (2024) show that partisanship is detectable across fields
and within fields, even across those estimating the same theoretical
parameter. This poses serious challenges to economic policy development.
Models and their econometric estimation play an increasingly important role
in modern economic and political life. From macroeconomic policy and
financial regulation to public health and climate policy, models contribute
to shaping policies. The generation of ever more data is likely to support
the proliferation of models and econometrics. Yet, research resources in
academia focus on the theoretical foundations of the underlying model and on
the statistical methods of econometrics; much less attention is devoted to
the epistemological challenges of the underlying concepts, the normative
challenges of the everyday work with models and econometrics as well as the
inevitable role of expert judgement. Yet, understanding these challenges
would be crucial to design policy processes that effectively address
potential policy biases on economic policy development and ensure the
integrity of that process. This SUERF panel discussion discusses how serious
the policy bias in economic research is and how it affects policy
development. Furthermore, panellists will explain how that policy bias is
possible even when rigorous mathematical /statistical methods are employed.
Finally, the panel suggests design features of economic policy development
processes that improve its integrity in the face of the policy bias in
economic research.

December 11, 2024 04:00 PM-05:00 PM
The Playboy Bunny and the Astronaut Wife: Constructing Femininities and the United States Space Program.
You can register for the talk here<https://futurespace-project.eu/futurespace-talk-registration/>
Abstract
Inspired by Ahmed (2010), we follow the figures of the 'playboy bunny' and the 'astronaut wife' through the cultural legacies of (north american) space flight. Following from our work on what feminist interventions can offer to social studies of outer space (2023), in this talk we work through how femininities of the Other of the hegemonic masculinities of outer space are constructed. Our work asks how these figures reverberate in popular cultures to shape present and futures conceptions of femininity in outer space, and offer pathways that intervene in normative gendered futurities. In following these figures, we think about what illuminating them might do also for directing pathways of feminist scholarship on outer space in the future.
We consider the Playboy Bunny: a construct of the pornotopic 1950s, and the discursive counterpoint to the womanizing young man. Appearing off-handedly in archival interviews about life at Johnson Space Center during the early space programmes of the 1950s and 60s, making her way secretly into lunar checklists worn by astronauts on the Moon, and continuing to draw media attention into the 2000s, we draw on Preciado's biopolitical theorising (2019) to think through the sexual relations and gender politics of the space programme. Contrastingly on the mother-whore axis, stands the media construct of the "astronaut wife." Using perspectives from Feminist Communication Studies, we explore how the assigned duties of the astronaut wife upheld the figure of the hypermasculine astronaut. We argue that the caretaking duties assigned to the figure of the "astronaut wife" extended beyond the confines of her homeboundness and homemaking into outer space: she was rendered part of the communication technologies available to take care of the hypermasculine astronaut's mental health. We conclude by considering how these examples help us pluralise and (re)make future femininities in relation to outer space.

Critical Circularity - (re)configuring repair and reuse
Abstract
Inasmuch as the circular economy has become a prominent topic within political and corporate discussions worldwide - imagining a wholescale transformation of linear modes of production and the creative recovery and repurposing of materials formerly classified as waste - a range of recent critical assessments have identified key faultlines in this discourse. These critiques have characterised the circular economy as a "refurbished version of market-oriented capitalism"(Genovese and Pansera 2021), and identified tendencies toward technocratic policy interventions such as "consumer nudging, quality assurance standards, and enhanced waste policies" (Niskanen and Mclaren 2023). Responding to these critiques in this paper we develop a notion of critical circularity, drawing on two overlapping projects focused on the configuration of projects of repair and reuse. Our first case is drawn from the fields of wastewater and sewage treatment. Emerging in the nineteenth century, through the consolidation of public health, sanitation and environmental science - together with what Schneider (2011) characterises as the technologies of industrial ecosystems in recent years sewage infrastructures have years emerged as sites of renewed political concern. In this context, visions of the circular reuse and anticipated monetisation of sewage have been troubled by a recognition of the ways in which wastewater is commonly contaminated by a range of toxic substances (including PFAS, microplastics and heavy metals). Basing our analysis in current research exploring the potential reuse of the solid waste produced through sewage treatment - commonly referred to as sludge or biosolids - we explore the ways in which anticipated transitions in sewage treatment entail situated negotiations of the mass and volume of solid waste, together with the ways in which biosolids are entangled with more-than-human and chemosocial relations, in the context of changing climatic dynamics. Our second case draws on an ongoing engagement with projects of repair and activism around the global 'right to repair' movement. In this case we explore how the objectives of a movement for a right to repair configure repair practices in ways that simultaneously preserve and subvert existing socio-material orders.
We conclude by pointing to the prospects for critical and engaged conceptions of the circular economy. My coauthors for this work at Patrik Bonney (Deakin University) and Kevin Witzenberger (Queensland Universiyt of Technology).

Philosophy of Science Colloquium TALK: Zofia Hałęza (University of Łódź)
How Women Contributed to the Emergence of Polish Analytic Philosophy.
Outstanding Female Philosophers from the Lvov-Warsaw School
Philosophy of Science Colloquium
The Institute Vienna Circle holds a Philosophy of Science Colloquium with
talks by our present fellows.
Date: 12/12/2024
Time: 16h45
Venue: New Institute Building (NIG), Universitätsstraße 7, 1010 Wien, HS 2G
Abstract:
From today's perspective, one of the most significant 20th-century
discoveries in Polish philosophy's history was the Lvov-Warsaw School's
rediscovery. The turbulent history of Poland and the political events after
the Second World War led this group's members, who were still living, to the
conviction that science would forget them. However, thanks to the woman
philosopher Izydora Dąmbska and her influence on her pupils, the memory of
the Lvov-Warsaw School has survived. I would even say - that the Lvov-Warsaw
School has been rediscovered. Although the Lvov-Warsaw School was founded at
the end of the 19th century by Kazimierz Twardowski, to a large extent his
female students have contributed to the survival of the memory of his
legacy, not only in the immaterial sphere, but also in the form of
artefacts, archives and documents. In addition to their merits in the
struggle for the survival of memory, women at the Lvov-Warsaw School
practised philosophy equally with men. At the turn of the 20th century, this
was a phenomenon unprecedented in any school of philosophy.
A critical analysis of the history of philosophy is a vital phenomenon.
After all, people write histories, and several different factors influence
them. Thus, it is the history of Polish philosophy which I have been
studying for several years. In the case of the Lvov-Warsaw School, we are
dealing with a phenomenon that has yet to be sufficiently described-namely,
the number of active women in this formation.
In this seminar, I am eager to present the potential impact of my research,
conducted as part of my PhD at the University of Lodz in the Doctoral School
of Humanities. I will also share the inspiration that led me to this topic.
How has the issue of women in the Lvov-Warsaw School been addressed in the
past, and what promising avenues are there for further exploration?
My research is primarily a critical analysis of the history of philosophy
and a comparative analysis of the state of Polish philosophy at that time.
In telling the story of women associated with the Lvov-Warsaw School, I will
also present my research methodology and the unique historical and social
conditions that enabled women in Poland to climb the scientific Olympus. I
will emphasize the need for philosophical reflection in women's history, as
it is not just a reenactment and reminder of forgotten figures and their
achievements, but a crucial aspect that adds depth and significance to our
understanding of the past. In the current situation, in addition to
multiplying research on women's history, we should also ask ourselves - how
do we do it? To what end do we conduct such research, and what does it
result in?

Wissenschaftliche Philosophie ist der Versuch, Philosophie ausgehend von
den Kriterien der Einzelwissenschaften als eigenständige Wissenschaft zu
etablieren. Die Frage nach ihrer Entwicklungsgeschichte wirft folglich
das Problem des komplexen und historisch kontingenten Verhältnisses von
Philosophie und Wissenschaft auf.
Die Kommission für Geschichte und Philosophie der Wissenschaften der ÖAW
lädt zum Workshop "Wissenschaftliche Philosophie" ein, um die
Transformationsgeschichte vom 18. ins 19. Jahrhundert genauer zu
beleuchten. Dabei sollen sowohl die logische Analyse und ihre empirische
Basis thematisiert werden: Erstere liegt in einer Problematisierung der
Natur der Mathematik, der Frage nach dem Gegenstand der Logik bzw. nach
dem Status von regulativen Prinzipien und ihrer Apriorizität; zweitere
im Empfindungsbegriff, dem Konzept raumzeitlicher Gegenstände und dem
Elementbegriff.

Das Buch „Franz Roh 1890-1965“ setzt sich zum Ziel, den Vordenker und
Vorkämpfer der Kulturmoderne auf wissenschaftlicher Grundlage nach
intensivem Quellenstudium und Archivrecherchen vorzustellen.
Keine Ausstellung, die sich mit der mitteleuropäischen Moderne der 1920

Vordenker vorbei. Bisher existiert aber keine zusammenhängende
wissenschaftliche Erforschung seines Lebens und Werkes. Diese Lücke will
dieser Band schließen. Die Beiträge sind von ausgewiesenen
SpezialistInnen der zahlreichen Facetten seines Werks verfasst und
ergeben , zusammen genommen, eine Kollektivbiographie Rohs, die von
seinen Jugendjahren und seinem Fachwechsel von der Germanistik und
Philosophie zur Kunstgeschichte noch vor dem ersten Weltkrieg bis hin zu
den letzten Treffen mit lebenslangen Freunden in der Mitte der 1965er
Jahre reicht.
