Forum Religionsphilosophie

by Institut für Philosophie

We cordially invite you to the next lecture in the series "Forum Religionsphilosophie" (see also attachment for this and the following lecture). Esther Heinrich-Ramharter, Michael Staudigl* * * * *------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * * * *György Geréby* (Central European University PU, Vienna) Thursday, March 9, 2023, 15:00-16:30, Lecture Room 2H, 1090 Universitätsstraße 7 (NIG), 2nd floor /*Theistic fallacies. What are the epistemic problems with irenic approaches in the philosophy of religion?*/ Theism argues for the existence of a single transcendent personal god who is a creator and governor of the world. Theism does not identify itself with any religion in particular since it maintains that it can establish the essential core of religious beliefs, or at least of the ‘monotheistic’ beliefs. R. Swinburne, or differently, J. Hick suppose that ‘central’ religious tenets are rational, that is, logically justifiable, and that the tenets are consistent. Consequently, theism supports the widespread opinion that the ‘monotheistic’ religions worship the same god and that religious differences are the result of diverse historical developments. In my talk, I will challenge this program by showing that the ‘core identity’ assumption founders on epistemic logic, in particular, because of the Hooded Man (cognosco venientem) paradox. Establishing the ‘rational core doctrine’ is shown to be an illusion because of the non-substitutivity of identicals in epistemic (or intensional) contexts. Medieval theologians (e.g. Walter Burleigh or Albert of Saxony) were aware of this problem and offered criteria for correct inferences. In the end, I plead that religious tolerance can only be based on developments internal to the different religions.

She accompanies PHD-students and researchers in challenging writing projects and has been leading courses on academic writing at universities in Austria and abroad for almost 10 years. During the workshop on Writing Productivity and Writing Flow, Claudia Macho offers techniques and strategies for productive academic writing that can benefit PhD researchers as well as master students. This workshop not only promotes productivity; individual concentration and focus issues that you may encounter can also be addressed during the workshop. The event is designed to help doctoral students reflect on and optimize their writing flow. These insights gained during the workshop can then be applied to your own text projects.

Call for Participation: Critical Political Epistemology - Inaugural Workshop

by Institut für Philosophie

Dear all, we are looking forward to your participation in the inaugural workshop of the newly founded Critical Political Epistemology Network! Please feel free to forward it to all those who could be interested. Here is the call: Call for Participation – Critical Political Epistemology Network Inaugural Workshop on the 25th and 26th of May 2023 The goal of this workshop is to establish an international research network to foster alliances in the field of critical political epistemology (CPE). CPE analyzes how questions around knowledge, power, governance, politics, oppression, and ignorance intersect, such as: How do forms of political resistance generate collective knowledge? Who is understood to be a political, epistemic agent? How do relations and structures of power impact which and whose political interests become knowable, and to whom? How do counter-knowledges create resistance to oppression? Potential topics of interest include but are not limited to: • Social movements and activism • The epistemic role, power, and authority of political parties • Social categories and their impact on knowledge, ignorance, and power • Marginalization and its effect on epistemic practices • (Re-)Distribution of material and epistemic capital These topics will be analyzed from different disciplinary perspectives. As an inter- and transdisciplinary research network, CPE expands and links questions, lines of inquiry, and methods in social and political epistemology. We aim to bring together people from different epistemic communities and focus on critical, non-ideal theorizing that is situated in material and praxis-oriented analysis of prevailing epistemic and political structures. The workshop has two main goals. The first is to create an international network for collaborative forms of knowledge production. Our hope is to serve as a space to engage in epistemic practices that are not exclusively centered around the individual nor confined to the university. The second is to produce a statement of purpose that delineates core questions and future aims of the CPE Network. On the first day of the workshop, the coordinating committee – Melanie Altanian (she/her, University College Dublin), Solmu Anttila (they/them, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam), Stephanie Deig (she/they, Universität Luzern), Flora Löffelmann (they/them, Universität Wien) and Sonja Riegler (she/they, Universität Wien) – will present and invite feedback on a preliminary statement of purpose for the CPE Network. We will then form collaborative working groups that explore the relation of different themes, questions, and challenges. On the second day of the workshop, the results of these groups will be collectively discussed and incorporated into the statement of purpose. The resulting collaboratively written text will provide a foundation for further work in this field. We encourage applications from relevant subfields in philosophy that include but are not limited to epistemology, political theory and philosophy, critical theory, philosophy of language, phenomenology, queer philosophy, and feminist philosophy. We also welcome applications from the humanities and social sciences, e.g., sociology and social theory, science and technology studies, critical race studies, gender studies, discourse studies, history, decolonial and postcolonial studies, genocide studies, legal studies, political economy, social psychology, media and communication science, political science and art history. We also strongly encourage activists, science communicators, policy analysts, artists, educators, and others who are interested in CPE to apply. Please submit a CV and a short letter of motivation (approximately one page) to cpenetwork(a)proton.me indicating how your research, political or artistic work and/or everyday experience address pertinent questions in CPE. We invite interested persons to apply by the 19th of March, 2023. Accepted participants will be notified by the 4th of April, 2023. Travel and accommodation funding up to € 200 is available for those who do not have institutional support. Please indicate in your application if you need financial assistance, and if it might exceed the funds available. The organizers are committed to making this workshop an accessible space and share the goal of dismantling the exclusionary mechanisms at work in the field of academic philosophy. We especially encourage persons from marginalized and underrepresented groups to apply, e.g. BIPoC, LGBTQAI+ people, economically marginalized people and disabled persons. The workshop will take place in person on the 25th and 26th of May, 2023 at the Universität Wien. The venue is wheelchair accessible. We thank the Vienna Doctoral School of Philosophy, the APSE Group, the Institute of Philosophy (Universität Wien) and the Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities at the Universität Luzern for their financial support. -- Flora Löffelmann, BA Bakk.
