Hi everyone,
We cordially invite you to the next doc:wip, taking place next Monday
from 13:30 to 15:00
Andrew Tedder (Institute Vienna Circle) will be presenting on:
Pluriplenitudinous Platonism
Abstract: I discuss a view in philosophy of mathematics which combines
realism with a robust pluralism, admitting a range of structures,
following Mark Balaguer's Plenitudinous Pluralism, but going more
broadly in admitting inconsistent and other odd structures. In this work
in progress, I sketch the view, as well as my reasons for wanting to
adopt it.
all welcome,
best,
Sophie Veigl (in name of the organizers)

Dear all,
The Knowledge in Crisis<https://philosophy.ceu.edu/knowledge-crisis-project> Cluster of Excellence is hosting its first public event on AI and the Problems of Knowledge this November 16th.
Event Description:
Artificial Intelligence is in the process of transforming our society. But it also has profound implications for our methods of knowledge production and consumption. The products of recent AI machines like ChatGPT are linguistically impressive and convincing - but they are also full of factual errors which their creators euphemistically (and misleadingly) call 'hallucinations'. Given the extent to which we are starting to rely on AI, the question arises: how can we trust any of its outputs? How do we know what to believe? Is this is technical problem or a social and epistemological one? Technology is also beginning to change our conception of knowledge itself. If someone asks you whether you know a friend's phone number, you may say yes and reach for your phone. Do you really know it in this situation? And if so, what does this say about the concept of knowledge?
These and other questions will be introduced in a public discussion, the first public event of the Knowledge in Crisis Cluster of Excellence.
The discussion will be moderated by Professor Tim Crane, Director of Research for the Knowledge in Crisis Project, and the author of the leading textbook on the philosophy of mind and AI, The Mechanical Mind (first edition 1995, third edition 2014).
This event is open to all. Please register here: https://events.ceu.edu/2023-11-16/ai-and-problems-knowledge
Looking forward to seeing many of you there!
Warmly,
Jason Means

-------- Original Message --------
Subject: CEU Summer School on Contemporary Issues in Ontology and Social
Ontology
Date: 27.01.2023 09:07
From: "International Social Ontology Society" <ISOS(a)wildapricot.org>
Reply-To: "Asya Passinsky" <asyapass(a)gmail.com>
Central European University is offering a summer course on
“Contemporary Issues in Ontology and Social Ontology [1]”. The
course will be held July 17th to July 28th, 2023 in Budapest, Hungary.
The faculty includes Mark Balaguer (Cal State LA), Talia Bettcher (Cal
State LA), Åsa Burman (Stockholm), Esa Díaz-León (Barcelona), Alex
Grzankowski (Birkbeck), Ferenc Huoranszki (CEU), Michaela McSweeney
(Boston), and Asya Passinsky (CEU).
Course description: Philosophers are becoming increasingly interested in
real-world problems and in how their discipline is relevant to these
problems. The recent explosion of interest in social ontology is part of
a movement in philosophy to come down out of the ivory tower and engage
with issues that actually matter—issues concerning, e.g., race,
gender, and social justice. This course will introduce students to
ontology, and to social ontology in particular, by delving deeply into
numerous important issues in the field. Specific topics to be covered
in the course include the following: social justice, social
construction, groups, social structures, ideal vs. non-ideal social
ontology, social power, essentialism as it relates to social groups and
genders, metaphysical grounding in the social realm, issues pertaining
to mental health and moral responsibility, social theories of art,
rationality, and mental content, and issues in meta social ontology.
We invite applications from graduate students, postdocs, and faculty in
philosophy. A few places for advanced undergraduate students will also
be available. The application deadline is February 14th, 2023.
For more information and details on how to apply, please visit the
course website [1].

<https://mailchi.mp/647e2e3db6f1/new-fellowship-opportunities-at-remarque-in…>
Remarque Institute at NYU
/announces our fellowship opportunities for the upcoming academic year./
We are delighted to announce a new initiative at Remarque: *Technology,
the Environment, and the Future of Europe (TEFE)*. It involves new,
funded fellowships; new programming; a podcast; and conferences.
TEFE, funded by Open Society Foundations, will host four fellows per
term: one fellowship is forgraduate students
<https://gmail.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=071cfc6bc18365bf2aa8d00cf&…>,
three forfaculty or non-academics.
<https://gmail.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=071cfc6bc18365bf2aa8d00cf&…>
/*Please also read on for exciting updates to our already established
Visiting Fellows Program.*/
*Technology, the Environment, and the Future of Europe*
Doctoral Fellows
<https://gmail.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=071cfc6bc18365bf2aa8d00cf&…> will
receive a fellowship stipend of $4750 per month, an office at the
Remarque Institute, visiting scholar status to use NYU’s libraries,
databases, facilities, and relevant university privileges. Doctoral
students must be currently enrolled in a degree-granting program.
Visiting Fellows
<https://gmail.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=071cfc6bc18365bf2aa8d00cf&…> will
receive a fellowship stipend of $4500 per month, a studio apartment at
no cost (or a housing stipend), an office at the Remarque Institute,
visiting scholar status to use NYU’s libraries, databases, facilities,
and relevant university privileges.
Applications from non-academics for the Visiting Fellowships are encouraged.
The Remarque Institute is a vibrant intellectual space and the TEFE
initiative aims to allow each semester’s cohort of scholars to
work both alone and together, building on their distinctive disciplines
and shared interests.
Fellows are expected to be in residence throughout the semester; to
participate in all relevant Remarque events; and to take part in and
contribute to the community the Institute seeks to foster.
We seek scholars of the highest caliber who embody the diversity of the
United States as well as the global society in which we live. We
strongly encourage applications from women, racial and ethnic
minorities, and other individuals who are under-represented in the
profession, across color, creed, race, ethnic and national origin,
physical ability, gender, and sexual identity, or any other legally
protected basis. NYU affirms the value of differing perspectives on the
world as we strive to build the strongest possible university with the
widest reach. To learn more about our commitment to diversity, equity,
and inclusion, please read here:

*Remarque Visiting Fellowship Program*
We also welcome applicants to our *Remarque Visiting Fellowship Program.*
Remarque Visiting Fellowships
<https://gmail.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=071cfc6bc18365bf2aa8d00cf&…>,
as always, come with apartments and travel and for the first time also
come with a stipend for those who demonstrate need.
These Fellowships are intended for scholars on sabbatical leave at their
home institutions or with extramural funding or other outside support,
though for the 2024-25 academic year, the Institute is able to provide a
monthly stipend of $2,000 for junior scholars visiting without
sabbatical or extramural funding of their own.
All Fellows receive cost-free housing in an NYU studio apartment and
round-trip travel to and from New York, and are provided with a private
office and modest administrative support during their residency at the
Institute. At NYU, Remarque visiting fellows have access to NYU library
and other university resources and privileges.
We are particularly interested in applications from individuals whose
work will be significantly enabled by a period of residency at the
Institute. Normally, fellowship applicants must have a PhD in hand at
the time of the start date of their fellowship at the Remarque Institute.
While our housing is intended for visiting scholars, we do offer a
limited number of fellowships per semester to those currently residing
in New York, which include office space, NYU affiliation, and some
administrative support.

The possibility of dual use and misuse of research results ("dual use
research of concern (DURC)") posesseveralethical and legal challenges
for researchers, research institutions and research funding
institutions. On the one hand, it raises an ethical dilemma between

and international policy processes target the ethical as well as legal
structure of handling security relevant research.This special issue aims

Dear all,
I want to share with you the freshly published call for papers for the
Midlands Conference of Critical Thought 2024, which will take place at
Nottingham Trent University on April 5th and 6th, 2024. The MCCT is an
offshoot of the London Conference in Critical Thought, more info to be
found here: https://www.londoncritical.co.uk/.
Together with Sonja Riegler, who is, like me, a prae-doc at our
institute, I am hosting a stream as part of the Critical Political
Epistemology Network (Find us here:
https://cpenetwork.editorx.io/home/). Maybe not so surprisingly, our
stream focuses on Critical Political Epistemology. We are excited for
your proposals!
Apart from that, there is an array of different streams that might be
interesting to many of you!
Please also share the call with those you think could be interested.
All the best & looking forward to your ideas,
Flora

Alexis Shotwell (Carleton University Ottawa): "Working or playing at
freedom"
Friday, October 20th 2023, 6-8pm, Hörsaal 2G (NIG), Department of
Philosophy (and online)
Lecture and Discussion
Abstract: Ursula Le Guin thinks of freedom as an ongoing process, a
practice rather than an achievement, something to be worked on rather
than won. While our freedom can be stolen from us, in her work, it
cannot be given to us: we each must manifest it through our unique,
specific lives. Such freedom, she argues, is only really available in
societies organized around justice and mutual aid. It does not fully
exist yet. Perhaps along the way to social relations not organized to
benefit some and oppress many, practicing freedom can open more
possibilities for us individually and for our collective worlds. Because
the work of creating such freedom is ongoing, Le Guin and others
conceive of freedom as something we build in an ongoing way - we never
stop working on it. The worry about such a accounts: They may reinforce
ableist and productivist normative commitments that bolster capitalist
value structures. In this paper, I elaborate those worries, and think
with Le Guin and others about the connections among freedom, the idea
that we each have worth in virtue of our uniqueness, and the promise of
idle play as a form of creating beauty.

*IWM Lectures in Human Sciences with Seyla Benhabib*
The intense interest in cosmopolitanism in the social and political
sciences, cultural and legal studies dates back to the last two decades
of the twentieth century. With the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, the
reunification of Germany, and the extension of the European Union to
east and central European countries formerly under Communist rule, the
Kantian cosmopolitan ideal of uniting diverse countries under the rule
of law, respect for human rights and the free exchange of goods and
services seemed to come alive. By the beginning of the new century,
cosmopolitanism had fallen on hard times. This series will defend
cosmopolitanism from below by engaging with the postcolonial critiques
of Kantian thought, voiced by James Tully, Inez Valdez, Sylvia Wynter,
and Walter Mignolo. The three lectures bearing the overarching title
"The Changing Fortunes of Cosmopolitanism: Demos, Cosmos and Globus"
will be held on 5, 11, and 19 October 2023 at the University of Vienna*.
For more information and to register, please see here
<https://www.iwm.at/event/part-i-the-changing-fortunes-of-cosmopolitanism-de…>.
*
*Seyla Benhabib*has held appointments at Yale, Columbia, and Harvard, in
addition to numerous visiting professorships around the world. Among her
many publications are Exile, Statelessness, and Migration. Playing Chess
with History from Hannah Arendt to Isaiah Berlin (2018), Another
Cosmopolitanism (2006), The Claims of Culture (2003), and The Rights of
Others (2004). Her work has been translated into twelve languages.
Benhabib is currently Albert Hirschman Fellow at the Institute for Human
Sciences.
The lecture series is organized in cooperation with the Departments of
Philosophy, Sociology, Political Science, and Anthropology at the
University of Vienna.
Sehr geehrte Kolleg:innen,
ich möchte Sie auf folgende Public Philosophy Veranstaltung aufmerksam machen.

Islands of Resilience – Public Philosophy für die Zukunft
Wir leben derzeit in einer Situation, die man als Polykrise bezeichnen kann: Von den Auswirkungen der Klimakrise, über instabile Finanz- und Wirtschaftsentwicklungen, Krieg und Pandemien bis hin zu technologischen Umwälzungen der Arbeitswelt und unserer Bildungsinstitutionen. Der Technik kommt hier eine ambivalente Rolle zu. Einerseits trägt ihr Einsatz zu den Krisen bei, bringt sie zum Teil sogar hervor, andererseits steht Technik auch im Mittelpunkt von Visionen einer besseren, egalitären Zukunft.
Überzeugt von der Relevanz einer transdiziplinären und vielschichtigen Betrachtung dieser komplexen Phänomene, fördert “Islands of Resilience” die Zusammenarbeit zwischen Wissenschaftler:innen, Künstler:innen, Aktivist:innen und anderen gesellschaftlichen Akteuren. Ziel des Projekts ist es, über die Kritik bestehender Verhältnisse hinaus zu gehen und Visionen für eine wünschenswerte Zukunft zu entwerfen sowie Wege aufzuzeigen, diese explizit zu machen.
Wir wollen zum Prozess der Suche nach Antworten beitragen auf die Fragen: Wie navigieren wir gemeinsam in Richtung zukunftsfähiger Gemeinschaften? Welche Technologien können nach der Absage der Internet-Revolution heute Träger emanzipatorischer politischer Visionen sein und uns dabei helfen, Krisen zu bewältigen und wie wirken wir in Richtung besserer soziotechnischer Systeme? Welche Rolle kann und soll Wissenschaft und Kunst in Hinblick auf die politischen Aspekte technologischer Umwälzungen spielen? Dabei fragen wir an den zwei Veranstaltungstagen performativ nach den Potenzialen einer Public Philosophy und erforschen die Bedeutung kollektiver Imaginationsprozesse und Räume, um damit Impulse für das Aufbrechen und Erweitern herkömmlicher Strukturen des Nachdenkens über Zukunft zu setzen.
Islands of Resilience – Public Philosophy for the Future
We are currently living in a situation that can be described as a polycrisis: From the effects of the climate crisis, to unstable financial and economic developments, war and pandemics, to technological upheavals in the world of work and our educational institutions. Technology has an ambivalent role to play here. On the one hand, its use contributes to the crises, in some cases even creates them; on the other hand, technology is also at the heart of visions of a better, more egalitarian future.
Convinced of the relevance of a transdisciplinary and multi-layered approach to these complex phenomena, "Islands of Resilience" promotes collaboration between scientists, artists, activists and other social actors. The aim of the project is to go beyond the critique of existing conditions and to create visions for a desirable future as well as to develop ways to make them explicit.
We want to contribute to the process of finding answers to the questions: How do we navigate together towards sustainable communities? After the rejection of the internet revolution, which technologies can be carriers of emancipatory political visions today and help us to overcome crises, and how do we work towards better socio-technical systems? What role can, and should science and art play with regard to the political aspects of technological upheavals? During the two days of the event, we will performatively inquire into the potentials of a public philosophy and explore the significance of collective imaginative processes and spaces in order to set impulses for breaking up and extending conventional structures in thinking about the future.

Guten Tag!
Das Center for Teaching and Learning veranstaltet am Do., 28.09.2023,
10:00-13:00h folgenden Kurs:
Geschlechtervielfalt in der Lehre
Wie kann ich ihr den ihr gebührenden Raum geben?
Trans, inter*, nichtbinär, divers, cis, Pronomenrunde, all gender toilet
... Nicht nur der Staat erkennt Geschlecht mittlerweile als vielfältig
an, auch an Universitäten kommt das Thema immer öfter auf. Aber was ist
Geschlecht bzw. Geschlechtervielfalt eigentlich? Was bedeuten Begriffe
wie trans, cis, nichtbinär etc.? In welchen Geschlechternormen bewege
ich mich selber? Wie kann ich trans_inter*nichtbinären Personen in
meiner Lehre respektvoll begegnen? Wie kann ich einen möglichst offenen,
geschlechtervielfältigen Raum gestalten?
In diesem Workshop haben wir 3 Stunden Zeit, uns mit dem Thema
Geschlechtervielfalt in der Lehre aus verschiedenen Perspektiven zu
beschäftigen: Neben einer Einführung in zentrale Begriffe und Konzepte
stehen die Selbstreflexion der eigenen Geschlechterbilder und vor allem
konkrete Fragen aus Ihrem Arbeitsalltag im Mittelpunkt. Bringen Sie Ihre
Fragen und Anliegen mit, damit wir sie gemeinsam diskutieren können!
Alle Lehrende sind herzlich dazu eingeladen!

Prof. Friedrich Stadler (University of Vienna):
“Georg Henrik von Wright and Austrian Philosophy – Personal and
Intellectual Encounters with Family Resemblances”
Kirkkokatu 6, 00170 Helsinki,
October 20th 2023, 15.15-17.00 (3.15-5 pm).
Live stream: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLqQQsCi68E
Georg Henrik von Wright acknowledged Eino Kaila and Ludwig Wittgenstein
as pivotal to his philosophical growth, reflecting his deep engagement
with Austrian philosophy from Mach to the Vienna Circle. His connection
with Wittgenstein, both as successor and literary heir, strongly shaped
his intellectual path. However, this should not overshadow his
individual accomplishments in fields like induction, deontic logic, and
ethics. His interactions with Austrian thinkers fit within the framework
of “Austrian Philosophy,” which potentially would have led him to study
under Viktor Kraft in Vienna instead of Cambridge if not for WWII.
In this lecture von Wright’s intellectual journey from pre-war Vienna to
the end of the 20th century will be illustrated, involving encounters
with the Vienna Circle and the Wittgenstein community in Austria. At the
end the question is raised whether Georg Henrik von Wright was a typical
analytic philosopher.
Professor Friedrich Stadler
Friedrich Stadler is retired Professor of History and Philosophy of
Science at the University of Vienna and is currently Permanent Fellow at
the Institute Vienna Circle, which he founded and headed until 2018. He
also acts as director of the Vienna Circle Society and as member of the
Commission for History and Philosophy of Science at the Austrian Academy
of Sciences.
He is the author of books on Ernst Mach and the Vienna Circle, editor
and co-editor of a book series covering Logical Empiricism, history and
philosophy of science, analytic philosophy, modern intellectual history
and more. He has served as President of the European Philosophy of
Science Association and of the Austrian Ludwig Wittgenstein Society.

The 'Rousseau' Annual Lecture and Conference are organised with the
support of the European Consortium for Political Research and the
Keele-Oxford-St Andrews Kantian (KOSAK) Research Centre.
The 'Jean-Jacques Rousseau' Annual Lecture and Conference usually take
place at the end of November (occasionally moved on the following year
in March). The previous Rousseau Annual Lectures were given by David
Owen (2021 - took place in November 2022), Jens Timmermann (2020 - took
place in April 2022), Adrian W. Moore (2019 - took place in July 2021),
Susan Shell (2018), Pauline Kleingeld (2017 - took place in March 2018),
Julian Savulescu (2016), Mark Timmons (2015 - took place in March 2016),
Howard Williams (2014), Adrian Piper (2013), Alan Montefiore (2012),
John Horton (2011 - took place in March 2012), Stephen Engstrom (2010),
Miranda Fricker (2009) and Giuseppina D'Oro (2008).
*Why the _Jean-Jacques Rousseau _lecture? We hereby celebrate the true
but very little known fact that Jean-Jacques Rousseau lived for a time
in Staffordshire. From 22 March 1766 to 1 May 1767 Rousseau lived in the
little Staffordshire village of Wootton. Rousseau had been invited to
England by David Hume with whom he soon afterwards quarrelled. He then
spent the next year in seclusion in Staffordshire writing the first
drafts of his Confessions. When he was not writing it is said that he
roamed the Staffordshire countryside in his Armenian costume studying
wild flowers. Many years after his departure the locals remembered 'Owd
Ross Hall', not just for his eccentricities but also for his gifts to
local charities. They believed he was a king in exile! (Stephen Leach -
Senior Honorary Fellow, Keele Humanities and Social Sciences)

Unser Seminar bildet eine politisch-theologische Diskussion zu Rousseaus
Staatstheorie und ihrem historischen Kontext. In seinen beiden
Preisschriften – "Abhandlung über die Wissenschaften und Künste /
Discours sur les sciences et les arts" (1750) und "Abhandlung über den
Ursprung und die Grundlagen der Ungleichheit unter den Menschen /
Discours sur l’origine et les fondements de l’inégalité parmi les
hommes" (1755) – und in seiner Erziehungsschrift "Emil, oder Über die
Erziehung / Émile, ou De l’éducation" (1762) will Rousseau das Leid der
Menschheit erklären: Dieses resultiere nicht aus der Natur des Menschen,
sondern ‚hausgemacht‘ aus dessen gesellschaftlichen Konstrukten.
Rousseaus Anthropologie und Geschichtsphilosophie sind bei dieser
Problemschilderung tiefgehend theologisch geprägt, und so verhält es
sich auch mit der Schrift, in welcher er die Problemlösung erarbeiten
will: "Vom Gesellschaftsvertrag / Du contrat social" (1762). Wie er sich
in seinem Argumentieren bereits vorher wiederholt kulturpolitisch auf
den Calvinismus seiner Heimatstadt berufen hat, publiziert er auch diese
Schrift dezidiert als „Bürger von Genf / Citoyen de Genève“. Seine
zentrale Frage dabei ist, von welcher Religion ein Staat beschaffen sein
muss, damit er als Gemeinschaft bestehen kann; so lautet das letzte
Kapitel „Von der bürgerlichen Religion / De la religion civile“.
Rousseaus bürgerliche Religion weist eine immense Wirkungsgeschichte
auf: Sie ist maßgebliches Movens des "Kultes der Vernunft / Culte de la
Raison" in der Französischen Revolution und prägt entscheidend die
deutschsprachige Philosophie um 1800. Als Rousseau nach seinem
literarisch so produktiven Jahr 1762 von der katholischen als auch von
der reformierten Kirche verfolgt wird, legt er demonstrativ seine Genfer
Staatsbürgerschaft nieder.
Wir werden den Inhalt von Rousseaus politischen Schriften und deren
praktische und theoretische Wirkung unter dem Stichwort ‚Theokratie‘
diskutieren, wobei wir sowohl auf den Calvinismus wie auch auf den Kult
der Vernunft der Französischen Revolution eingehen. Begleitet werden wir
von Rousseau-Interpretationen, die sich über Staël, Cassirer, Barth,
Starobinski, Fetscher bis hin zur aktuellen Forschung erstrecken. Auch
thematisieren wir Rousseaus Wirkung auf die Anfänge des Deutschen
Idealismus anhand einschlägiger Texte.
Liebe Kolleg:innen,
anbei darf ich Sie auf einen CfP zur Ethik und Politik der Imagination aufmerksam machen.
Mit besten Grüßen
Sergej Seitz
Call for Papers
Ethics and Politics of Imagination
Two workshops related to the projects The Limits of Imagination: Animals, Empathy, Anthropomorphism (P35137-G; funded by the FWF) and Prefiguring Democratic Futures: Cultural and Theoretical Responses to the Crisis of Political Imagination (PREDEF 101055015; funded by the ERC)
* First workshop session: Oct 13th and 14th 2023, Innsbruck, Austria
* Second workshop session: April 12th and 13th 2024, Vienna, Austria
Organized by Martin Huth (Department of Philosophy, University of Innsbruck) & Sergej Seitz (Department of Political Science, University of Vienna)
The concept of imagination plays a significant, yet sometimes underestimated or concealed role in the history of as well as in current debates in practical philosophy.
Ethics problematizes whether or to what extent imagination forms a basis or at least an irreducible part of moral judgments and behavior. For instance, our treatment of people with non-normative embodiment (Garland-Thomson 2017) may depend on our capacity to empathize with them and to imagine their specific way of being in the world. While it is often claimed that this is easily possible, imaginative empathy is a complex phenomenon. An illustrative example is the case of epistemic injustice as analyzed by Fricker (2009). The tacit inability to imagine that, for example, people with cognitive disabilities can be capable knowers forms the basis of systematic exclusion and disrespect. Generally, hegemonic socio-cultural frames of the “deviant” tend to picture their way of being in the world through the lens of privation; hence, comprehension and perceptions are in some respect rooted in politically saturated schemes. This may well lead to paternalism, infantilization, or even dehumanization. With regard to non-human beings, current debates scrutinize whether and to what extent we are capable of imagining what it is like to be a pig, a lizard or a bat. Traditionally, we face widespread skepticism concerning this capability (Nagel 1974), which involves an inability to determine if and to what extent animals suffer in factory farms or during experiments, thus paving the way for the reification of animals.
In politics, imagination is considered in its relevance for forming political judgments as well as in regard to how imaginary dispositives stabilize or destabilize the status quo of a given political order. The neoliberal-capitalist hegemony forecloses the very possibility to imagine institutions and political relations substantially different from the status quo. As Margaret Thatcher’s notorious TINA dictum ‘There is No Alternative’ suggests, ‘radical imagination’ (Castoriadis 1975) and a lively political sense of possibility are repressed. Following this line of thought, it seems urgent to rethink the political’s imaginary dimensions both in its stabilizing (ideological) as well as in its possibility-disclosing and subversive capacities. While the latter is classically explicated in terms of utopia, more recent work questions the blueprint character of classical utopias and focuses instead on how political movements enact and experiment with different forms of life and new relationalities. Much-discussed notions in this respect are prefiguration (van de Sande 2023, Sörensen 2023) and pre-enactment (Marchart 2019), pointing to how political imagination is not only a mental-pictorial, but essentially a practical and collective matter.
This double workshop proceeds from the conviction that to thoroughly rethink imagination requires bridging and interweaving ethical and political perspectives. From the perspective of ethics, it is indispensable to tackle the problem of politically saturated schemes since they predetermine the possibilities and limits of perceiving, imagining, and comprehending others. In this view, ethics is not restricted to ethical criteria and deliberation, but is mindful of the bodily and pre-reflective prerequisites of ethical responsiveness. Political imaginaries constitute alternative frames of perception and comprehension as well as new versions of inclusion and (multi-species) cohabitation. In turn, from the perspective of politics, it seems indispensable to acknowledge different versions of living in the world as prerequisites for imaginaries that are considerable as meaningful alternatives to the status quo.
Against this background, exploring the possibilities and limits of imagination is crucial both for comprehending the ethical aporias as well as the political antagonisms of our times. To this end, the double workshop convenes researchers from all fields of practical philosophy, political theory, sociology, pedagogics, and related disciplines, which tackle the following or further related questions:
* How shall we describe the phenomenon of imagination and its ethical and/or political relevance?
* What role does imagination play in moral decision making? What role should it play?
* To what extent and in what way is imagination pre-determined by hegemonic socio-cultural frames? In other words, how is the relation between imagination and the imaginary to be conceived?
* How can we determine the limits of imagination? Can we extend these limits, and if so, how is that possible?
* How is imagination related to democracy? Is there such a thing as a specifically democratic imagination?
Format
The idea behind the double-workshop model is to provide a platform for more long-term exchange between researchers working on ethico-political questions of imagination. Therefore, we expect all participants to attend both events. We strive towards creating a true workshop atmosphere that allows for serious, productive, and collaborative engagement with each other’s work. Talks should be 30 minutes, followed by at least 30 minutes of discussion. The talk at the second workshop can be on the same or a closely related topic but should however reflect the feedback and criticism gathered at the first workshop. Therefore, this double event is particularly fitting for scholars who wish to present current work-in-progress.
Venue and Accommodation
The workshops will take place in-person at the Universities of Innsbruck (October) and Vienna (April). Online participation is not possible. There is no participation fee. The organizers are happy to give recommendations regarding travel arrangements. In individual cases, assistance with travel expenses may be provided.
Publication
We plan to publish the workshop’s proceedings as a special issue in a peer-reviewed journal and/or in an edited volume.

Reminder for this exciting upcoming event!!
Dear Institute of Philosophy!
UPsalon would like to cordially invite you to our Stammtisch or
"regular's table"!
This time, we will use the Stammtisch for a first meeting of the
critical Anti-Racism Working Group at the Institute of Philosophy. We
discuss concerns, ideas and best practices at other departments, such as
the Racism-Critical working group at the department of African Studies,
and set up goals and aims for our own working group. You can find more
information of the group here:
https://afrika.univie.ac.at/en/about-us/wg-against-racism/
In line with this, we invite you to join us for a first meeting and
discussion organised with UPSalon. The working group highly encourages
participation from all levels. This will be a yet informal group of
people who care about and are interested in taking up the topic of
racism in the university ecosystem. This working group is concerned with
the kinds of work, ideas and activities that improves awareness, enhance
visibility, initiate discussions and interventions among all levels and
practices of the institution.
UPsalon are a group of doctoral and post-doctoral researchers; the
initiative aims at creating a space and community in Vienna where
underrepresented philosophers – such as women, gender minorities,
racialised minorities, socioeconomically disadvantaged people and people
disadvantaged by society – can connect on a regular basis. For more

Dear All
Drawing from best practices at Racism - Critical working group at the
department of African Studies, we are planning to found our own working
group on the topic of racism, especially in the university context. You
can find more information of the group here:
https://afrika.univie.ac.at/en/about-us/wg-against-racism/
In line with this, we invite you to join us for a first meeting and
discussion organised with UPSalon. The working group highly encourages
participation from all levels. This will be a yet informal group of
people who care about and are interested in taking up the topic of
racism in the university ecosystem. This working group is concerned with
the kinds of work, ideas and activities that improves awareness,
enhances visibility, initiates discussions and interventions among all
levels and practices of the institution. You can look at the website
attached for a brief orientation.
It is important to re-iterate, that our goal in doing this is to create
a working group that shares a relationship of care with the issue of
racism and it is not a career-building exercise. This also implies that
racism needs to be recognised as an issue that affects us all and yet,
those experiencing racism might also be people to keep in mind as
central to expertise seeking, intervention making and delegation of
authority. The hope is to have something that can be made continuous at
the Philosophy department regardless of the presence of specific
members.
Please write to UPsalon <upsalon.philosophy(a)univie.ac.at> by 23rd of
June if you would like to be a member of this group. We are planning our
first meeting at the end of June/ beginning of July at the UPSalon
Stammtisch with the goal of discussing aims, plans and ideas.
We look forward to seeing you at the discussion.
Best
Manu

PHILOSOPHIEN DER KOMPLEXITÄT
Die Sommerakademie „Philosophien der Komplexität“ besteht in einem
explorativen Reflexionsraum, dessen Ziel es ist, auf die wesentlichen
Merkmale der Komplexität tiefgründig einzugehen. Erscheinungen der
Komplexität in den sozialen Systemen werden explorativ beobachtet und
analysiert zwecks Erlangung eines Verständnisses von angesprochenen
Herausforderungen, die zu einer handlungsmächtigen Ethik und einer neuen
Organisation des Denkens führen.
Komplexität steht heute für die Bezeichnung einer schwer begreifbaren
Situation. Sie hat damit zu tun, dass die globalen Ereignisse und
Probleme, die sich in einem großen Rahmen (Pandemie, Krieg, ökologische
Krise) abspielen, eine unmittelbare Wirkung auf die lokale Ebene
ausüben. Sie scheinen unvorhersehbar und unbestimmbar. Große
Unvorhersehbarkeiten machen die Entscheidungen schwierig. Vor der
Überwältigung durch komplexe Probleme wird eine KI-Maschinerie erstellt,
um Lösungen für komplexe Systeme zu finden. Allerdings bleibt die
Unkenntnis immer noch eine Frage, die der Komplexität innewohnt und
nicht von einem technischen Mittel gelöst werden kann. Insofern hat die
Sommerakademie das Ziel, Komplexität nicht nur begreifbar zu machen,
sondern die Handlungsfähigkeit aller sozialen Akteur*innen bewusst zu
machen und ein agiles Denken zu fördern.
Die Komplexität stellt heute die Frage, wie Ordnungen bzw. neue
Ordnungen aus der Verflechtung von miteinander interagierenden Elementen
hervorgehen. Diese Frage wollen wir in der Sommerakademie behandeln, mit
besonderer Aufmerksamkeit auf: Wer trägt die Verantwortung für neue
komplexe Ordnungen? Welche Erkenntniswege sind vorhanden und möglich,
mit denen soziale Agenten die miteinander verflochtenen Phänomene, die
die heutige soziale, ökonomische und ökologische globale Lage bestimmen,
bewältigen können? Das Ziel dieses Projekts ist es, über die
Epistemologie aktueller, sehr herausfordernder sozialer und
wissenschaftlicher Paradigmen der Komplexität zu reflektieren.

*PHILOSOPHIES OF COMPLEXITY*
The Summer Academy "Philosophies of Complexity" consists of an
explorative space of reflection that aims to delve deeply into the
essential features of complexity. Phenomena of complexity in social
systems will be exploratively observed and analysed in order to gain an
understanding of the challenges raised, leading to an actionable ethics
and a new organisation of thinking.
Complexity is now used to describe a situation that is difficult to
understand. It has to do with the fact that global events and
large-scale problems (pandemics, wars, ecological crises) have an
immediate impact at the local level. They appear unpredictable and
unknowable. Unpredictability makes it difficult to make decisions.
Before being overwhelmed by complex problems, AI machines are being
created to find solutions to complex systems. However, uncertainty
remains an inherent problem of complexity and cannot be solved by
technical means. In this respect, the Summer Academy aims not only to
make complexity comprehensible, but also to make all social actors*
aware of their capacity to act and to promote agile thinking.
Complexity today raises the question of how orders or new orders emerge
from the entanglement of interacting elements. We want to address this
question in the Summer Academy, with a particular focus on: Who is
responsible for new complex orders? What ways of knowing are available
and possible for social actors to manage the entangled phenomena that
define today's social, economic and ecological global situation? The aim
of this project is to reflect on the epistemology of current, highly
challenging social and scientific paradigms of complexity.

Vortrag auf Englisch
Abstract: In recent decades, marked by neoliberalism and increasingly authoritarian transformations in societies and government, global violence against women has also increased dramatically. A “global war on women” marks a political shift in patriarchal understanding of power. Women’s killings cannot be considered in private and sexual, but in political categories, with the aim of perpetuating the claims to power of male alliances.
Rita Laura Segato is an Argentinian-Brazilian academic who has been called ‘one of Latin America's most celebrated feminist anthropologists’ and ‘one of the most lucid feminist thinkers of this era’. She is known especially for her research on gender in Indigenous villages and Latin American communities, violence against women and the relationships between gender, racism and colonialism. One of her specialist areas is the study of gender violence. Recent publications include: La crítica de la colonialidad en ocho ensayos. Prometeo Libros. 2016; La guerra contra las mujeres. Tinta Limón - Traficantes de sueños. 2017; Mujeres intelectuales: feminismos y liberación en América Latina y el Caribe. Consejo Latinoamericano de Ciencias Sociales – CLACSO. 2017 (co-authored); Más allá del decenio de los pueblos afrodescendientes. Consejo Latinoamericano de Ciencias Sociales – CLACSO. 2017 (co-authored); Contrapedagogías de la crueldad. Prometeo Libros. 2018.

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.

Call for Papers
Creative Bodies—Creative Minds
The third international, interdisciplinary conference in gender research
25-26 March 2024, University of Graz, Austria
Organized by:
Sociology of Gender section, Department of Sociology, University of
Graz, Austria; FH JOANNEUM– University of Applied Sciences Graz; Centre
for Southeast European Studies, University of Graz.
Theoretical discussions on creativity in the last two decades have
addressed existing dichotomies in its conceptualization, such as
professional/everyday and public/private. Cultural studies have then
been critical of creativity being approached in terms of the individual
talent and elite (“creative class”), in economic terms (“creative
industries”) or in terms of exclusive locations (“creative
city”)[1]. Gender scholars, in the meantime, have levelled criticism
at the gendered definition of creativity, too often conceived as a
property of a lone male genius, and at the gender bias of research on
creativity that had tended to overlook activities in which women
typically engaged [2].
Currently, in the European cultural/political space we witness a rise in
the use of diverse artistic, creative, and playful tactics and practices
in protests and everyday activism which challenge structural
inequalities intersecting gender, class, race, ethnicity, sexuality, age
and (dis)ability. Such examples of creative expression, including arts,
crafts, participatory practices, and/or aesthetic interventions in
public space [3], and in feminist and queer politics, in particular
(e.g. “craftivism” [4], “artivism”[5]) challenge the common
understanding of what constitutes political, as well as creative
activities. Likewise, studies on socially engaged art in Southeastern
Europe that have conceptualized “creative work […] as a labor of
care and compassion” [6] make us think beyond the ideas of creativity
in terms of individual self-expression.
The third Creative Bodies—Creative Minds Conference 2024 will explore
the gendered and political aspects of current, historical or everyday
creative practices. DIY-making, as a form of everyday creativity,
carries a different meaning in different political regimes (such as in
the former Eastern Bloc, liberal market democracies, or post-colonial
context). Covid-19 pandemic and lockdowns exemplify how everyday
creative practice is/was an adaptive response to external circumstances.
We witnessed how digital media enabled sharing of creative responses to
the constraints, including the use of humor (“from zines to memes”)
to cope with the situation, express care and solidarity, and maintain
relationships. We are interested in exploring creative adaptations to
external circumstances across different political, economic and gender
regimes.
Keynote speakers:
Věra Sokolová, Department of History, Charles University, Prague
Milica Tomić, Institute for Contemporary Art, Graz University of
Technology
The areas of interest for the CBCM 2024 conference include, but are not
limited to:
* creativity and intersectional activism;
* arts, crafts, play as activist and political tools;
* reparative cultural and political practices;
* creative living as an adaptation to different biopolitical
regulations;
* (everyday) creativity across different political, economic and gender
regimes;
* creative labor (precarity, rethinking work/productivity, collective
organizing);
* creative, playful, fun and politicized use of space and time (e.g.
festivals, parks and clubs);
* intersectional activism and digital media;
* humor, playfulness and fun in feminist and LGBTQ+ activism;
* creativity as care for others, collective and solidary creativity;
* DIY, maker movement: from knitting, through home-making to open
source;
* material, processual and relational aspects of creative practices;
* the place of creative methodologies and creative research in teaching
and scholarly research in social
sciences and humanities.
We are inviting proposals for presentations from scholars, practitioners
and postgraduate students from a wide range of disciplines including,
but not limited to: sociology, cultural studies, anthropology, human
geography, political science, gender studies, art, performance, history,
literary studies, social studies of science and technology and

Title: The Institute of Ascertaining Scientific Consensus, or, How to
Measure Scientific Community Opinion and Influence People
When/Where: Thursday, June 1^st , 3-5pm, HS 2H, NIG
Abstract:
A solid, international scientific consensus is the best signal humanity
ever gets that a specific scientific statement articulates an
“established scientific fact”. It is thus surprising that there
currently exists no good way to measure the strength of scientific
consensus regarding a specific statement of interest. Indeed, scientists
themselves don’t know when a claim can be called a ‘fact’ (as Ernst Mayr
used to complain, and as one IPCC author recently complained). A good
method for quickly, efficiently assessing mass scientific opinion is
urgently needed, especially given the rise in ‘fake news’ and misleading
information in the public sphere. Perhaps most significantly of all,
recent studies have demonstrated the power of expert-community consensus
information to correct misconceptions of laypersons, and, crucially,
impact upon relevant choices and actions of those laypersons (such as
getting vaccinated against COVID-19). The Institute for Ascertaining
Scientific Consensus (IASC) seeks to become humanity’s premier means for
measuring scientific community opinion on a given statement of interest.
In June 2023 it conducts its first mass survey, targeting 20,000
scientists across 30 different academic institutions.

Dear all,
we cordially invite you to the upcoming talk of the APSE - lecture
series, delivered by Ariane Hanemaayer (Brandon University)
Title: Where it hurts: Making Pain Medicine
When/Where: 25.5., 15-17pm, HS 2H
If you are interested in joining us for dinner/drinks afterwards, write
me an email (sophie.juliane.veigl(a)univie.ac.at)! everyone welcome!
Abstract:
What makes pain problematic? The nature of pain is contested, and over
the 20th century, researchers from biomedical fields as diverse as
surgery, anesthesiology, physiology, and neurology have sought to
develop a unified theory to represent its causes and effects. In the
clinic, the status of pain is subjective. Over the last century, many
efforts have been made to raise awareness of the under-examined aspects
of pain and to objectify it through the standardization of its
measurement. There remains, however, a gap between the knowledge of and
intervention on pain that has troubled the evidence-based medicine
paradigm. In this presentation I explain the nature of this gap as a
result of particular discursive and institutional relations. In
particular, I focus on the rise of clinical pain measurement scales
alongside the professionalization of the subspecialty of pain medicine.
Drawing on material from a broader genealogical project on the
biomedical sciences of pain, I argue that the techniques of pain
management were developed in relation to a particular shift in the
notion of clinical judgment within the medical discourse. I will situate
this knowledge development within the broader societal and institutional
events that rendered pain problematic, focusing on the establishment of
the first pain clinic in the USA and the International Society for the
Study of Pain.
Kind regards,

Dear all,
together with several people all over the university and Manu Sharma
from our own institute, I am organizing an InterGender – International
Consortium for Interdisciplinary Feminist Research Training course for
PhD and late stage MA students, which will happen in October and is
entitled "Learning to Read Differently".
You can even get 7,5 or 10 ECTS credits for it!
Here's a short description:
Much academic work relies on existing texts and their interpretation. As
scholars, we necessarily build on these knowledges transmitted to us by
others in order to try to better understand power relations and their
modes of action, to form our own arguments based on the texts, to make
sense of certain social phenomena and to contribute to thinking_feeling
about the world. All too often, this process of reading becomes so
normalized that we hardly think about the consequences and premises of
these practices of reading themselves. Therefore, we want to dedicate
this PhD and MA course to the goal of “Learning to Read Differently”.
Throughout the course, we will engage not only with how we read “texts”
as they are commonly understood, but also with how we interpret the
fabric of reality and the situations and phenomena we encounter in our
research and beyond. Together, we want to explore what we choose to read
or not to read, as well as the political implications that arise from
these practices. Thus, the course aims to support participants in
exercising reading practices and research methods that enable them to
critically reflect upon the “standard” practices usually governed by
white euro-anglo-centric academia, to challenge them, and to try out
different approaches.
Deadline for application is June 18, 2023.
We invite all those who are interested to apply, and are happy if you
also widely share this call with others!
All the best,
Flora

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
Deig at: stephanie.deig(a)unilu.ch
Stephanie Deig, MA, is a PhD Candidate at the University of Lucerne. She
is a co-founder of two organizations that have worked to combat gendered
inequalities in the academic field of philosophy in Switzerland and is
active as a board member with The Society for Women* in Philosophy
Switzerland."

Liebe Kolleg*innen, liebe Freund*innen,
wir möchten Euch herzlich zu unserer Konferenz "International Planning
for Freedom. Otto Neuraths demokratische Planungstheorie im Kontext der
Klimakrise" einladen.
ELisabeth Nemeth & Günther Sandner (Organisator*innen)
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.

Hermann Cohen (1842-1918) war ein leidenschaftlicher Philosoph. Seine
Leitfiguren waren Platon und Kant, Bachja Ibn Pakuda und Maimonides. Er
war transzendentaler Idealist, Sozialist und als Jude ein am Gebetbuch
orientierter Reformdenker. Seine intellektuelle und rhetorische
Brillianz, seine Liebe zur Sache und der tiefe Ernst waren
unangefochten, auch seitens derer, die ihm widersprachen.
Cohen lehrte ab 1873 an der Universität Marburg, zuletzt an der
jüdischen "Lehranstalt" in Berlin. Er hinterließ ein umfangreiches Werk,
darunter ein mehrteiliges System der Philosophie und epochemachende
Entwürfe jüdischer Theologie. Der Vortrag wagt eine Skizze dieser
eindrucksvollen Persönlichkeit.
Dr. phil. habil. Hartwig Wiedebach habilitierte sich an der Universität
Kassel. Er lehrte bis 2019 Philosophie an der ETH Zürich, leitete das
Hermann Cohen Archiv und ist Mitherausgeber der Werke Cohens. Vorher 12
Jahre Tätigkeit in der Sozialpsychiatrie.
Bücher u.a.: The National Element in Hermann Cohen's Philosophy and
Religion (2012); Pathische Urteilskraft (2014); Cohen im Kontext (mit H.
Assel 2021).

Abstract:
Australia presents a complex example of a locale where there is
increasing awareness about the moral and legal requirements associated
with benefit sharing and acknowledgment of traditional knowledge,
particularly Indigenous knowledge sources. After a brief overview on the
history and current status of Indigenous communities in Australia, we
present a series of vignettes associated with marine research in South
Australia where different types of engagement or collaborations have
occurred between academic and governmental researchers and local
Indigenous communities. We use these vignettes to problematise typical
Western scientific methods of giving credit and including local and
traditional knowledges as part of knowledge production methods in
scientific research, and explore a broader range of options such as
diverse forms of benefit sharing that in turn can support a more robust
vision of what is epistemically and morally relevant in these domains.
Everyone welcome!

Dear all,
The Vienna Doctoral School of Philosophy and the Vienna Forum for
Analytic Philosophy are organizing a workshop on the topic of Graduate
Applications and Funding Opportunities for Early Career Philosophers
*this Thursday, **April 20*.
The workshop will be structured in two sessions:
*§1 FUNDING A PHD*
The DLE Research Services and Career Development will present national
and international funding opportunities for early career researchers
(PhD students, postdocs and transition phase). Among others, programs of
funding agencies such as FWF and the European Commission will be
presented and you will have the opportunity to ask questions to the
Research Services team.
*When?* April 20, 2023 – 15.00 – 16.30
*Where?* Room 3C, NIG, Universitätsstraße 7, 1010 Vienna
*break with snacks*: 16.30 – 17.00
*§2 PLANNING YOUR APPLICATION*
Our panel of Forum Alumni will provide participants with suggestions on
how to create an ideal timeline for applying to PhD programs and related
funding. The goal is to have a concrete to-do list with timestamps by
the end of the workshop. The session will cover topics such as US and UK
funding opportunities, application documentation, making contacts, and
suggestions for tailoring applications.
*When? *April 20, 2023 – 17:00 – 18:30
*Where?* Room 3B, NIG, Universitätsstraße 7, 1010 Vienna
