Dear all,
UPsalon and the Vienna Doctoral School of Philosophy cordially invite
you to a jointly organized pragmatic-academic event: "Combatting
Gendered Marginalization and Exclusion - Good Practices for
Philosophers". The workshop will be facilitated by Stephanie Deig
(University of Lucerne).
When: May 23rd, 4-6pm
Where: VinziRast-Lokal mittendrin
This workshop is open to persons of all genders working and studying at
all levels of the department. We especially invite people with extensive
teaching experience to share their perspectives and experiences on
gendered exclusions and bystanding in academic settings.
Please sign up to the workshop via the following link:
https://forms.gle/6Dw4oDWibNCWCRTX7
Note that we only have 20 open spots; we will allocate them via a “first
come, first serve” system.
Brief workshop description:
“The field of academic philosophy has a serious problem with the
under-representation of women as well as persons who do not identify
with the gender assigned to them at birth. This is due to structural
forms of gendered marginalization and exclusion that create unsafe and
harmful environments. In the first part of this workshop, participants
will be introduced to how specific mechanisms, such as implicit bias,
stereotype threat, as well as sexual and moral harassment manifest
within philosophical settings: working, teaching, and learning, and how
transforming certain conditions and practices could help combat them. In
the second half of the workshop, participants will be given a
theoretical introduction to bystander interventions and be encouraged
(but not required) and given space to share their own experiences
relevant to these questions to create awareness and discuss potential
strategies that could be enacted locally. We will conclude by using
these experiences as a basis for discussion about how bystanders can
safely and productively intervene in instances of gendered wrongdoings.
Even though the workshop focuses on gender-based exclusions, the
convener seeks to create a space for discussing marginalization from an
intersectional perspective."
If you have a topic that you’d particularly like to discuss or are
interested in contributing to the workshop, please contact Stephanie

Liebe Kolleg*innen, liebe Freund*innen,

Klimakrise" einladen.

Dear colleagues, dear friends,
we would like to cordially invite you to our conference "International
Planning for Freedom. Otto Neurath's democratic planning theory in the
context of the climate crisis".
Elisabeth Nemeth & Günther Sandner (organisers)
International Conference:
International Planning for Freedom. Otto Neurath's democratic planning
theory in the context of the climate crisis
A cooperation between Institute Vienna Circle (University of Vienna),
Vienna Circle Society (Vienna), Chamber of Labor (Vienna), FWF Project
Isotype. Origin, development, legacy (P 31500), Wien Museum.
Only a few years ago it was hardly imaginable that demands for planned
economy measures would be raised and publicly discussed again. Now the
time has come. Ulrike Herrmann's book "Das Ende des Kapitalismus. Warum
Wachstum und Klimaschutz nicht vereinbar sind – und wie wir in Zukunft
leben werden" (2022) is a bestseller. Her central thesis is discussed in
numerous public media: The transition from growth-dependent capitalism
to a social and ecological circular economy will only be possible
through a "private planned economy".
What she understands by this has striking similarities with the ideas of
economic planning that Otto Neurath conceived even before the First
World War and continued to develop until the end of his life in 1945. An
important point of reference for Neurath was Josef Popper-Lynkeus. The
latter justified the demand for overall social planning with a radically
individualistic ethic. Seen from today, this combination is surprising
and inspiring - not least because Popper-Lynkeus and Neurath were among
the first to introduce ecological viewpoints into economics.
A highlight of the conference will be the screening of the film "Land of
Promise" (UK 1946). The film was conceived by Neurath as a "film
argument" and directed by Paul Rotha. It argues for combating the
housing shortage in post-war England with extensively planned housing
programme. The arguments put forward in the film bear a remarkable
resemblance to the arguments Ulrike Herrmann puts forward today for a
"private planned economy" as a transition to a circular economy.

Dear all
Jorge Secada will give a talk at CEU on 9th May:
The Problem of Evil
Abstract
The paper first suggests a problem threatening any version of the problem of evil (that is, or arguments purporting to show that either God cannot exist or that it is improbable that God exists, given the existence of evil or of some particular instance of evil). The ultimate aim of the paper is to recast replies to the problem of evil away from theodicies or justifications.
