IVC Talk: Georg Schiemer "On two types of instrumental devices", November 14, 4.45pm

by Zarah Weiss

Dear all, our next speaker in the Philosophy of Science Colloquium organized by the Institute Vienna Circle is Georg Schiemer, who will give a talk on November 14, 4.45-6.15 pm. All are welcome! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Philosophy of Science Colloquium TALK: Georg Schiemer On two types of instrumental devices Philosophy of Science Colloquium The Institute Vienna Circle holds a Philosophy of Science Colloquium with talks by our present fellows. Date: 14/11/2024 Time: 16h45 Venue: New Institute Building (NIG), Universitätsstraße 7, 1010 Wien, HS 2G Abstract: Instrumental devices are linguistic expressions that are formal or non-representational but nevertheless indispensable or at least instrumentally useful for certain theoretical purposes. We give a systematic study of such expressions and their roles in theorizing, thus offering a unified treatment of instrumental devices across different philosophical areas. Specifically, we present an explication of two general types of such devices, namely merely expressive devices and merely inferential devices and discuss their respective theoretical roles based on a number of philosophical examples. Joint work with Hannes Leitgeb (LMU Munich).

Call for Applications - Summer School on History and Epistemology of Econometrics - Vienna July 2025

by Zarah Weiss

Summer School Call for Applications (Deadline: February 15, 2025) 23rd univie: summer school Scientific World Conceptions (USS-SWC) The History and Epistemology of Econometrics Vienna, July 7-11, 2025 https://summerschool-ivc.univie.ac.at/ Course Description 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. 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 econometrics, and the application of its results in policy decisions and evaluation. The objective of this program is to increase attention amongst philosophers of science, academic economists, and empirical economists in policy institutions (eg, central banks) to these issues. The course is also structured around a particular point of view namely, that economics is a science of models and that most of the main features of econometrics relate generally to the role of models in science. Topics will be selected reflecting participants interests and may include: * History of econometrics to frame the philosophical issues to be discussed in the course * The Vienna Circle and econometrics * Values and Ethical Pitfalls in econometric research * Key philosophical issues of how models relate to the world and how they relate to each other * Data: observation, classification, and measurement of economic variables from a modeling point of view * Conceptual issues related to modeling randomness * The identification problem: how possibly, if at all possible, to map descriptive relations onto theoretical variables? * Issues related to optional stopping, search methodologies, and the proper interpretation of results obtained through search * Different approaches to the nature of causation and different strategies of causal inference * The conceptual basis of graphical causal modeling and controlled, natural, and field experiments * The conceptual issues surrounding the problem of model uncertainty, as well as some of the strategies economists use to address it Main Lecturers: Kevin D. Hoover (Duke University) Kevin D. Hoover is Professor of Economics and Philosophy and Senior Fellow of the Center for the History of Political Economy at Duke University. He is the editor of the journal History of Political Economy and a past editor of the Journal of Economic Methodology. His current research addresses causality, causal inference in economics, the history of macroeconomics, philosophical issues related to the microfoundations of macroeconomics, and the engagement with economics of the American pragmatist philosopher Charles. S. Peirce. He is the author of The New Classical Macroeconomics, the Methodology of Empirical Macroeconomics, Causality in Macroeconomics, Applied Intermediate Macroeconomics, as well as many articles in monetary and macroeconomics, the history of economics, the philosophy of economics, and applied econometrics. Jennifer Jhun (Duke University) Jennifer Jhun is an Assistant Professor in the Philosophy Department at Duke University, as well as a Senior Fellow of the Center for the History of Political Economy. She holds a PhD in Philosophy from the University of Pittsburgh. Her main research interests are in the philosophy of science, especially philosophy of economics, but also in issues in other areas, such as psychology and physics. She is currently engaged on a project that investigates antitrust from a historical and philosophy-of-science perspective: Whats the Point of ceteris Paribus? or, How to Understand Supply and Demand Curves. Philosophy of Science 85, no. 2 (2018): 271-292; Economics, Equilibrium Methods, and Multi-scale Modeling. Erkenntnis 86, no. 2 (2021): 457-472; Multi-Model Reasoning in Economics: The Case of COMPASS. Philosophy of Science 90, no. 4 (2023): 836-854; Implied Market Shares and Antitrust Markets as Fuzzy Sets. Forthcoming at The Antitrust Bulletin. (Joint with Matthew Panhans, Federal Trade Commission) Guest Lecturer: Marcel Boumans (University of Utrecht) Marcel Boumans is historian and philosopher of science at Utrecht University. His main research focus is on understanding empirical research practices in science outside the lab from a philosophy of science-in-practice perspective. He is particularly interested in the practices of measurement and modelling and the role of mathematics in social science. The first step in these practices is to make sense of the available data. Visualisations play an important role in this. His current research project Vision and Visualisation is nearing completion with a book manuscript Shaping the Phenomena. The program is primarily directed at graduate students and junior researchers in philosophy of science and economics as well as empirical economists at policy institutions (eg, central banks) but the organizers also encourage applications from people in all stages of their career and from fields other than economics that apply advanced econometrics. Application form and further information: <https://summerschool-ivc.univie.ac.at/application/> https://summerschool-ivc.univie.ac.at/application/ USS-SWC operates under the academic supervision of an International Program Committee of distinguished philosophers, historians, and scientists. Its members represent the scientific fields in the scope of USS-SWC, make contact to their home universities and will also support acknowledgement of courses taken by the students.

A travel lover stops flying to distant places in the face of climate change. A politician begins to seek power instead of justice. Sometimes changing preferences seems to be a good thing; at other times, it appears regrettable. How we evaluate such changes is an important question. At the same time, we must understand how preference change comes about in the first place. Why do one person's preferences change in response to a given situation when the preferences of another person - in a similar situation - do not? When is it rational to change one's preferences? Despite its strengths, standard decision theory cannot answer these questions. That is, it cannot describe fundamental preference changes. This calls for a paradigm shift in the relevant academic disciplines. However, it is only recently that decision theorists have started to develop new approaches to examining the question of preference change. Furthermore, crucial normative issues have been neglected. For example, once we better understand preference change, some might suggest that we should try to change people's preferences, building on recent influential research concerning changing the behavior and choices of individuals via "nudges" or by modifying the "choice-architecture." This project will adopt a conceptual, model-building, rational and normative approach to motivational change and develop and empirically test an original model of preference change. Its main objectives are: (1) To understand motivational change better, both descriptively and conceptually (What is motivational change? How should motivational change be modeled?) (2) To develop an original model of motivational change - the "commitment-based theory" - and test whether it is normatively and descriptively adequate (Does the theory stand up to normative testing? Does the theory make correct predictions?) (3) To explore and evaluate the normative dimensions of preference change (When is a preference change rational? Are there other normative constraints on motivational change? Are adaptive preferences rational? Why are adaptive preferences so relevant in the context of current feminist philosophy? Should we change people's preferences?) _PhD Project_ In tackling some of these problems, the applicant can work within the following areas: - Nudging - Adaptive Preferences - Ethics - Rationality - Value Theory - Decision Theory - Other topic related to the project on Motivational Change _Scientific Requirements_ The candidate should: - Have a Master's degree in philosophy at the moment of starting the PhD position - Have a strong analytical background - Be an independent thinker, enthusiastic and physically present - Be socially competent and motivated to work with people in the Department _Salary _ The PhD position is fully funded for 4 years. _How to Apply_ Applications must be sent by e-mail to Michael Messerli (mich_messerli(a)yahoo.de) by 20 January 2025.

This new perspective, going back to Ludwig Wittgenstein's late work, takes its moves from the key assumption that our belief systems are ultimately supported by sets of unquestioned pre-theoretical presuppositions, which function as the hinges of our systems of thought. Hinge Epistemology, as the area of research sprouting from this basic model has come to be known, has taken a more applied and interdisciplinary turn in recent years. Drawing on cognitive scientific theories, hinges have been compared to procedural knowledge, drawing on feminist theory and social science, they have been compared with prejudices. Additionally, hinge epistemologists have engaged with the Moorean concept of common knowledge. _Appropriate Topics for Submission include, among others: _ * How do hinges relate to non-standard, non-JTB, kinds of knowledge? * What role do hinges play for political disagreement? * How can hinges be applied in cognitive scientific models? * What role do hinges play in pedagogical contexts? * What is the ethics of hinge epistemology? For further information, please contact the guest editor(s): j.ohlhorst2(a)vu.nl; The deadline for submissions is 01.04.2025.

The theme of the Winter School is Climate Change and the Long-Term Future. It will consist of 6 lecture tutorials where topics related to the theme will be discussed from different disciplinary viewpoints: Philosophy, Politics, and Economics (PPE). To facilitate attendance by people from outside the Netherlands and Europe, the winter school will be held online. _Theme_ Climate change is among the biggest challenges humanity faces today. How should individuals, societies, and humanity at large respond to climate change and other long-term challenges? Far from being a question for the natural sciences alone, a good answer also requires a 'PPE perspective', that is, a perspective that combines philosophy, politics, and economics. In this winter school, different researchers will take a PPE perspective in exploring climate change and our ethical and political obligations towards future people. The winter school starts with fundamental normative questions, such as: What are our moral obligations to future people? Do they extend to all future people and, if so, does this imply that our longtermist moral duties trump any short-term concerns? Climate change mitigation is typically seen as a collective action problem and calls for an institutional solution that facilitates widespread cooperation among individuals and countries. But what exactly makes for successful and sustainable institutions? And a social-psychological perspective will ask: what explains people's attitudes and actions towards the environment and future generations and how can those be improved? How can democracies respond to wide disagreement around climate impacts and appropriate mitigation measures? And, finally, what are effective solutions to securing a sustainable energy supply? For example, should such a mix include nuclear energy? And are European carbon pricing initiatives on the right track? _Programme _ Prof Lisa Herzog [6], 'Climate Science and Democracy - Considerations from Political Epistemology' Prof Frank Hindriks [7], 'Sustainable institutions' Prof Marijke Leliveld [8], 'Sustainability and other moral behavior: a psychological perspective' Prof Edwin Woerdman [9], 'Carbon pricing policies in the EU: a law and economics perspective' Prof Simon Friederich [10], 'Climate change as a collective action problem and the importance of very cheap energy' Prof Andreas T. Schmidt [11], 'Longtermism and our duty towards far-future people' The winter school is aimed at advanced undergraduate students and early-stage graduate students. It also offers students interested in studying the PPE Master [12] in Groningen an insight into the kinds of teaching and research done at the PPE Centre. _Registration_ To register, send us an email, letting us know your name, affiliation, and what you study (which subject and whether you are an undergraduate or graduate student) toa.t.schmidt(a)rug.nl with 'Registration for winter school' as subject, no later than _December 29, 2024_.

IVC Talk: Lorenzo Sartori on "Scientific Pictures, Models, and their Justification", November 7, 4.45pm

by Zarah Weiss

Dear all, our next speaker in the Philosophy of Science Colloquium organized by the Institute Vienna Circle is Lorenzo Sartori (IVC Fellow), who will give a talk on November 7, 4.45-6.15 pm. All are welcome! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Philosophy of Science Colloquium TALK: Lorenzo Sartori SCIENTIFIC PICTURES, MODELS, AND THEIR JUSTIFICATION Philosophy of Science Colloquium The Institute Vienna Circle holds a Philosophy of Science Colloquium with talks by our present fellows. Date: 07/11/2024 Time: 16h45 Venue: New Institute Building (NIG), Universitätsstraße 7, 1010 Wien, HS 2G ABSTRACT: In this paper, I first show that similarity accounts of scientific pictures fail with more realistic cases of scientific pictures. My primary case study is the picture of a black hole, from which I develop an interpretation-based account of picture representation analogous to how models represent: a picture represents a designated target system iff, once interpreted, it exemplifies properties that are then imputed to the target via a de-idealising function. Then, I show that justification of the inferences from pictures crucially depends on their causal mechanisms of production, in contrast with the standard justificatory strategies we employ for model inferences.

Philosophers across various traditions and areas of research have long debated the epistemic roles of imagination. While imagination is often associated with creative thinking and the discovery of possible or fantastical worlds, the question remains: does imagination enhance our understanding of the actual world and help us acquire knowledge? This workshop brings together experts across various fields--phenomenology, philosophy of language, and philosophy of mind--to examine the diverse epistemic roles of imagination. By exploring how imagination can be a source of learning, deepen understanding, and contribute to knowledge formation, we aim to foster interdisciplinary dialogue and uncover new insights into this essential cognitive process. Confirmed speakers: * Kristina Liefke (Ruhr University Bochum) * Joshua Myers (University of Barcelona) * Sofia Pedrini (Ruhr University Bochum) * Zuzanna Rucińska (University of Antwerp) * Alfredo Vernazzani (Ruhr University Bochum) * Markus Werning (Ruhr University Bochum) Organizers: Sofia Pedrini, Alfredo Vernazzani, Markus Werning (Ruhr University of Bochum). For the full program and the Zoom link, visit: https://www.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/phil-lang/imagination For further questions send an email to sofia.pedrini(a)rub.de ****************************************** (3) VERANSTALTUNGSANKÜNDIGUNG (Online, 15.11.2024) Call for Interferences - Act up/Building up: EcoTechGender Action Group Center for the History of Women Philosophers and Scientists, Paderborn University The era of strictly demarcated sciences is over, at least since the COVID-19 pandemic. Over the years, changing social values, modern technologies, but also scientific misconduct and demands for emancipation based on diversity have led to the fact that science has become a multidisciplinary but also increasingly interwoven institution since at least the second half of the 20th century. The present bias is particularly evident in the institutionalization of knowledge and content from the humanities and the natural sciences and technology, which are in part still strictly separated and not automatically related to each other. This lack of contextualization and intertwining of nature, culture, technology, society, and gender theory can be illustrated by a number of problematic examples: Crash test dummies that only represent men and make cars all the more unsafe for women; toxic cultures of masculinity in engineering courses that make it almost impossible for women to build careers and reveal a serious lack of female role models; racist or sexist algorithms that overwhelm the increasingly important AI and fuel resentment; or supposedly glorious inventions by men for women, such as the Pinky Gloves released in 2021, that reveal a sometimes disastrous picture of gender stereotyping. All these examples clearly show that there is an urgent need to link the cultural sciences and humanities, which have been strictly separated, with the natural, technical, information and engineering sciences. However, these experiences also show how strong the influences of social, political, economic and societal factors are, which also have an unconscious effect on the natural and technical sciences and their results. This modern change therefore confirms all the more the establishment of an interlocking perspective and instructions for action for the scientific enterprise. An appropriate culture/expansion of discourse makes it possible to show how research in the natural, technical, information, and engineering sciences can be seen and evaluated in a multiple and constantly changing world in the context of society, politics, the environment, technology, and gender. Science is no longer a homogeneous and awe-inspiring entity that can sustain itself. It is increasingly criticized and confronted with demands to open up and to represent all aspects of social life in an interconnected way. There is therefore a need for other interfaces and interconnections that drive this world of research, transform it, make it usable, and build it in a future-oriented way. This particular entanglement has always been explored in the EcoTechGender research project [1] (est. 2007 by Prof. Dr. Ruth E. Hagengruber [2]). In the context of a workshop, we would like to emphasize this importance once again, work it out together, and offer space for a philosophical-interdisciplinary workshop and discourse in which young scientists can present their visions and contributions to the entanglement field of EcoTechGender. In addition to invited speakers, lecture slots will be advertised in order to provide a platform for exchange for interested young scientists. The aim of the workshop is to present different perspectives on EcoTechGender from young scholars from different academic disciplines to show the interferences of humanities, social sciences, science and technology studies, medicine and computer science. The workshop will be introduced by our Keynoter _Kateryna Karpenko [3]_, Director of the Center for Gender Studies at Kharkiv National Medical University, Ukraine. Afterwards, we will have the opportunity to follow and listen to several different PhD students from STEM fields, STS-Studies, medicine, gender studies and philosophy, who will present their views and ideas on EcoTechGender. For more inspiration have a look at our preliminary program [4]. The Workshop will take place on November 15, 2024 at the _Center for the History of Women Philosophers and Scientists_ as _online event._ For participation please register via our registration platform [5]. _The workshop is organized by __Ruth E. Hagengruber [2]__ & __Felix Grewe [6]__._ For further questions please contact: ecotechgender(a)historyofwomenphilosophers.org ****************************************** (4) VERANSTALTUNGSANKÜNDIGUNG (Online, 21.11.2024) Online-Workshop: Wissenschaftsgeleitetes Publizieren und Open Access in der Philosophie Die Veranstaltung umfasst folgende Themenschwerpunkte: - allgemeine Informationen zu Open Access - die (vermeintliche) Wirkung von Metriken auf das Renommee von Forschenden: Warum entscheiden sich Forschende, bei einem bestimmten Verlag zu publizieren? - Publikationsvorhaben im Diamond Open Access: Welche technischen Lösungen und editorischen Workflows, Herausforderungen bzw.

Innovations like synthetic cells, living materials, soft robotics, brain organoids, artificial intelligence in healthcare, and germline editing promise breakthroughs in science and medicine. They also raise profound ethical and anthropological questions about the nature of life, human identity, and the social impacts of altering biological processes. _The workshop _seeks to foster an interdisciplinary dialogue between life sciences researchers and scholars engaged in ethical, philosophical, and social reflection on these advancements. It _is a joint venture between the Institute for Molecular Systems Engineering and Advanced Materials (IMSEAM), the Max Planck Institute for Medical Research (MPImR), and the Marsilius-Kolleg. _ _The event will open with a public panel discussion at the Neue Aula of Heidelberg University on Thursday (November 28th) on the topic of brain organoids,_ followed by two days of talks and in-depth discussions. The majority of speakers will be drawn from Heidelberg University and its renowned local research institutions, including the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ), the National Center for Tumor Diseases (NCT), and Heidelberg University Hospital as well as the IMSEAM and the MPImR themselves. _The workshop will also feature S. Matthew Liao, Arthur Zitrin Professor of Bioethics at the School of Global Public Health at New York University (NYU), as the keynote speaker_, adding an internationally recognized voice to the ethical debates surrounding emerging biotechnologies.

However, within the metanormative literature, scholars have come forward raising doubts about the conceivability of that distinction, and several attemps have been made to rebuttal these reasons supporting scepticism. In the course of this workshop, we aim to bring different voices and perspectives on the authoritative-formal divide and its application together. _Speakers:_ * Derek Baker (_Frankfurt_) * James Brown (_Sheffield_) * Eline Gerritsen (_Hamburg_) * Susanne Mantel (_Heidelberg_) * Elizabeth Ventham (_Salzburg_) * Michael Vollmer (_Heidelberg_) * Jonathan Way (_Southampton_) * Jack Woods (_Leeds_) _Location:_ Universitätsplatz 1, 69117 Heidelberg To register and for more information: _michael.vollmer(a)uni-heidelberg.de_ _Organizers:_ Susanne Mantel & Michael Vollmer Links: ------ [1] https://historyofwomenphilosophers.org/ecotechgender/ [2] https://historyofwomenphilosophers.org/ruth_e_hagengruber/ [3] https://historyofwomenphilosophers.org/kateryna-karpenko/ [4] https://historyofwomenphilosophers.org/journals/journal/call-for-interefere… [5] https://indico.uni-paderborn.de/event/86/registrations/107/ [6] https://historyofwomenphilosophers.org/felix-grewe/

Fwd: [Hermes] Workshop on the Ethics of Climate Emergency, November 15 Vienna

by Raphael Gustavo Aybar Valdivia

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Hermes] Workshop on the Ethics of Climate Emergency, November 15 Vienna Date: 25.10.2024 12:39 From: Ali Emre Benli via Hermes <hermes(a)lists.philo.at> To: Hermes <hermes(a)lists.philo.at>, Iris <iris(a)lists.philo.at>, khoraplattform(a)lists.philo.at Reply-To: Ali Emre Benli <ali.emre.benli(a)univie.ac.at> Dear all, Please find below a Call for Registration for our workshop on the Ethics of Climate Emergency that will take place here at the University of Vienna on November 15. Workshop on the Ethics of Climate Emergency Co-hosted by Department of Philosophy University of Vienna and Knowledge in Crisis FWF Cluster of Excellence. November 15, 2024 Room 3A, Universitätsstraße 7 (NIG) Department of Philosophy, University of Vienna A declaration of climate emergency calls for a radical break from business-as-usual in climate policy. Yet it raises crucial moral, political and institutional questions: Should the demands of urgency and the extent of potential harm alter procedures of decision-making or frameworks of justification? Which courses of action/institutions are permissible to avoid the harms of global warming? How should we understand responsibilities for remedying loss and damage as well as future generations in the context of climate emergency? This one-day workshop will bring together researchers working on the above and related issues surrounding climate emergency. Speakers: Kathrin von Allmen (Harvard University) Ali Emre Benli (University of Vienna) Angela Kallhoff (University of Vienna) Ross Mittiga (SOAS University of London) Tracey Skillington (University College Cork) The workshop is free, but places are limited. Online participation is possible. Please register via workshop registration [1]. Program is available at The Ethics of Climate Emergency -- University of Vienna [2] For further information, see https://www.knowledgeincrisis.com/news-and-events Please send your enquiries to ali.emre.benli(a)univie.ac.at -- Ali Emre Benli Universitätsassistent (PostDoc) Chair of Ethics and Applied Ethics University of Vienna | Department of Philosophy Links: ------ [1] https://forms.gle/Pg5NcuvJAS1E3czf9 [2] https://ucrisportal.univie.ac.at/en/activities/the-ethics-of-climate-emerge… _______________________________________________ Hermes mailing list -- hermes(a)lists.philo.at To unsubscribe send an email to hermes-leave(a)lists.philo.at -- MSc.

This event will explore the relationship between formal methods and philosophical inquiry, focusing on the challenges, debates, and implications of formalising philosophical concepts. The conference will feature four keynote talks and eight contributed presentations mainly across three main topics: _1. The Feasibility and Challenges of Formalising Philosophy:_ This theme examines the adequacy of formal methods in capturing the nuances of philosophical ideas, identifying common challenges such as potential oversimplification and loss of depth, and exploring the relationships between terms and concepts within formal systems. _2. Pros and Cons of Using Formalisations in Philosophy:_ This topic addresses the ongoing discussion regarding the value of formal methods in philosophy, highlighting their benefits, including enhanced precision and clarity, alongside the limitations imposed by formal systems, such as the risk of diminishing the richness of philosophical discourse. _3. Conceptual Pluralism and Choosing the Right Formalisation:_ This theme recognises the diversity of formal methods and evaluates the criteria for selecting the most appropriate approaches for philosophical inquiry, considering the intended applications and goals of formalisation. We welcome contributions that provide original insights into these and related topics. Historical approaches or comparative studies across different philosophical schools are also encouraged. _Keynote Speakers_ - Catarina Dutilh Novaes (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam) - Georg Brun (University of Bern) - Sven Ove Hansson (Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm) - Anna Brożek (University of Warsaw) _Submission Guidelines_ We invite abstracts of up to 500 words, excluding references, which should clearly present the main argument and its relevance to the conference topics.

Bartolo Alegre Doctoral Students at LMU Munich, Munich Center for Mathematical Philosophy (MCMP) ****************************************** (4) CALL FOR PAPERS (Dortmund, Deadline: 10.01.2025) Dortmund Disputes on Economic Justice Date: June 12 and 13, 2025. Place: Dortmund, Germany Keynotes: Miranda Fleischer (San Diego), Nicholas Vrousalis (Rotterdam) Organizers: Peter Königs, Christian Neuhäuser, Lea Prix, Dick Timmer (TU Dortmund University) Most fundamental questions of economic justice remain unresolved. There is little agreement on the place of markets, the nature of property, the justifiability of taxes, the importance of workplace democracy, the injustice of economic inequality, and, generally, the merits of capitalism and socialism. While debates on economic justice often take place within specific political camps, where many assumptions are shared, the Dortmund Disputes take a different approach. The idea of the Dortmund Disputes is to foster debate across political boundaries. It seeks to bring together open-minded scholars with diverse political outlooks--whether liberal egalitarian, libertarian, socialist, conservative, or otherwise--who are committed to our shared goal of advancing our understanding of economic justice. The keynote speakers for the first installment of the Dortmund Disputes are Miranda Fleischer and Nicholas Vrousalis. Miranda Fleischer is Richard and Kaye Woltman Professor in Finance at University of San Diego's School of Law. Her work focuses on ethical and legal issues surrounding taxation, wealth and wealth transfer, and charitable giving. She's the co-author of a recent book on Universal Basic Income. Nicholas Vrousalis is Associate Professor in Practical Philosophy at Erasmus University Rotterdam [2]. His work revolves around distributive ethics, democratic theory, and the history of political philosophy, with emphasis on Kant, Hegel, and Marx. He is the author of a recent book on capitalism and exploitation. We invite scholars to apply with an abstract of around 500 words. Abstracts will be selected based on their quality, fit with the spirit of the conference, and broad alignment with the research interests of the keynote speakers. They should be sent as PDF attachments to Swaantje Siebke [swaantje.siebke(a)tu-dortmund.de], prepared for blind review. The deadline for submission is January 10, 2025. Limited funding is available to cover travel and accommodation expenses for speakers who cannot otherwise finance these costs. ****************************************** (5) CALL FOR PAPERS (Jena, Deadline: 14.02.2025) SSHAP 2025 _July 23-26, University of Jena._ The thirteenth annual conference of the Society for the Study of the History of Analytical Philosophy (SSHAP) will be held at the University of Jena, July 23-26, 2025. The annual meeting is locally organized by Tabea Rohr. The main conference venue will be _Rosensäle_, Fürstengraben 27, in the center of Jena. July 26, 2025 is the exact centenary of Frege's death, and one principal aim of this annual conference is to commemorate that event. _Invited Speakers:_ * Gottfried Gabriel (Jena) * Richard Kimberly Heck (Brown) * Maria van der Schaar (Leiden) * James Tappenden (Michigan) _Submission Deadline:_ The submission deadline is February 14, 2025.

It welcomes scholars interested in the many ways in which this development was influenced by thinkers such as Bolzano, Brentano and his school, Husserl, Frege, Russell, the Vienna Circle, Wittgenstein, Tarski, Quine, and the Polish school, for instance, but also seeks to promote work engaging with lesser-known figures and trends, and its reception in countries right across the world. Submissions to the SSHAP annual conference in all areas of the history of analytic philosophy are welcome. _Conference Homepage: https://sshap2025.uni-jena.de/_ ****************************************** (6) VERANSTALTUNGSANKÜNDIGUNG (Innsbruck, 30-31.10.2024) Book Symposium on Thomas Grundmann's forthcoming book "Expert Authority and the Limits of Critical Thinking" (OUP) Department of Christian Philosophy University of Innsbruck Dekanatssitzungssaal Karl-Rahner-Platz 1 _Abstract of the book_: Public confidence in scientific experts is high, particularly in times of crisis. But experts are not beyond doubt. In his forthcoming book, Thomas Grundmann argues that a different attitude towards experts is needed. Laypeople should stop thinking for themselves and typically defer to experts. In short, laypeople should treat experts as epistemic authorities. Grundmann presents a novel argument for this bold view and engages with its main challenges. For example, doesn't the view make experts too powerful and completely immune to criticism? The book replies to these and many more concerns about the authority of experts. On its way issues such as the history of epistemic authority, expert identification, the role of expert authority in resisting conspiracy theories, epistemic autonomy, and the role of experts in politics are addressed. _Speakers_ Sofia Bokros [3], _Uppsala University_ Katherine Dormandy [4], _University of Innsbruck_ Thomas Grundmann [5], _University of Cologne_ Rico Hauswald [6], _Technische Universität Dresden_ Christoph Jäger [7], _University of Innsbruck_ Hatice Kaya [8], _University of Cologne_ Federica Isabella Malfatti [9], _University of Innsbruck_ Pedro Schmechtig [10], _Technische Universität Dresden_ Johanna Stüger [11], _Cambridge University_ _Sponsors_ DK Philosophy of Religion [12] TWF - Tiroler Wissenschaftsförderung [13] Erika Cremer Habilitationsprogramm [14] _To register, contact:_ federica.malfatti(a)uibk.ac.at ****************************************** (7) VERANSTALTUNGSANKÜNDIGUNG (Frankfurt, 04-06.11.2024) Christine M. Korsgaard: Value and Freedom in Kant's Moral Philosophy Christine M. Korsgaard, die an der Harvard University lehrt, ist eine der wichtigsten Philosophinnen unserer Zeit. Ihr Werk widmet sich unter anderem einer Rechtfertigung menschlicher Würde, einer Grundlegung unseres richtigen Handelns und der Begründung des moralischen Status von Tieren. In den Dagmar-Westberg-Vorlesungen geht sie in drei Vorträgen zentralen Fragen der Praktischen Philosophie Kants nach, die sie auf innovative Weise deutet. Der erste Vortrag beschäftigt sich mit dem unvergleichlichen Wert des Individuums und ergründet, was es eigentlich heißt, „Zweck an sich selbst" zu sein. Der zweite Vortrag ist dem Zusammenhang von richtigem und gutem Handeln gewidmet und weist als wesentliches Kennzeichen deren Autonomie aus. Im dritten Vortrag wird schließlich Moralität als Bedingung unserer Freiheit thematisch. _4. November_ The Incomparable Value of the Individual _5.
