CfA: Rethinking Wild Europe, Vienna, 7-8 Feb. 2025

by Raphael Gustavo Aybar Valdivia

Dear all, We are inviting abstracts for our Winter Workshop on "Rethinking Wild Europe: European Perspectives on Wilderness, Rewilding and Biodiversity Conservation", organized by The International Society for Environmental Ethics (ISEE) and the Center for Environmental and Technology Ethics - Prague (CETE-P) 7-8 February 2025, University of Vienna Call for Abstracts (Deadline: 31. October 2024) The convergent climate change and biodiversity crises increasingly remind humans about the importance and precarity of their socio-ecological surroundings, thus shifting perspectives on nature, wild(er)ness and nonhuman others. This shift includes a renewed appreciation for ‘the wild’. New responses to climate change and biodiversity loss such as rewilding, spearheaded by organisations like Rewilding Europe and Rewilding Britain, are rapidly gaining popularity in Europe. Simultaneously, conservationists applaud the recent return of large predators in many European regions. Other novel approaches to ecological restoration and biodiversity conservation reflect a similar desire to respect and restore wildlife, and to facilitate different human-animal or human-nature relations. Long associated with other parts of the world, wildness and wilderness appear to have made a come-back in the European landscape and imagination. But what is the meaning of these concepts in a European context? How do they influence the European approach to biodiversity conservation? Do Western and Eastern European approaches differentiate, or are they relatively similar? This workshop will address the ethics and narratives surrounding wilderness, wildness, rewilding, and ecological restoration in Europe. We aim to assess the impact of these concepts and approaches on the European landscape, which has historically been a hybrid mixture of wildlife and human culture. The tension between, on the one hand, the desire to welcome wild animals and wilderness (back) to Europe and, on the other, preserving and rekindling cultural value and identity animates the debate on rewilding, biodiversity conservation, and land management. Wilderness, and more recently rewilding, have been criticised as colonial, patriarchal, and anthropocentric concepts. While much of this debate takes place in a North American context, Europe has its own challenges to face: among them, human-wildlife conflict; ongoing debates on land use, land access, and land sovereignty; divergent views on wild(er)ness between conservationists and local stakeholders; and concerns about animal welfare in rewilding projects. The event will address these (and other) issues arising within European conservation and rewilding. Keynote speakers: Dr. Martin Drenthen, Associate professor in Philosophy at Radboud University (NL); second keynote speaker TBA We invite abstracts (300 words) for 15-minute presentations addressing wild(erness) narratives and/or the ethics of rewilding, biodiversity, wilderness and wild animal conservation, and ecological restoration, with a primary focus on Europe. Possible topics may include (but are not limited to): o The distinct European approach to rewilding and conservation, o Novel and critical approaches to conservation and rewilding (e.g. place-based or community-led, decolonial, feminist, or compassionate conservation approaches), o Central and Eastern European perspectives, o Conflicts of interests between local stakeholders and conservationists, o Coexistence with large carnivores, o (Overcoming) colonialism and patriarchy in conservation, o Indigenous perspectives on conservation and land use, o Socio-ecological justice in a rewilding or conservation context, o Wild animal ethics, o The role of technology and AI in conservation and rewilding, o Changing human-animal or human-nature relations, o The concept of wilderness in European history and philosophy, o Contemporary European representations and meanings of wild(er)ness, o Comparative perspectives on European approaches and conservation in other parts of the world. 300-word abstracts, prepared for double-blind review, should be sent to rethinkingwildeurope(a)gmail.com by October 31, 2024. Please remove all identifying information from your abstract. In a separate document, send us a cover letter including your name, title, institutional affiliation, and a very short bio (max. 100 words). Notifications of acceptance will be sent out by November 30, 2024, at the latest. There will be a registration fee of approximately between 50€ and 100€ for the event. A special issue in a leading international journal is planned as a follow-up to the conference. Organising team: Leonie Bossert (ISEE), Linde De Vroey (ISEE), Iwona Janicka (CETE-P), Petr Urban (CETE-P).

Conference 26-28 Sept. "At the Limits of Imagination: Otherness in Humans & Nonhuman Animals"

by Vienna Doctoral School of Philosophy

Dear all, You are cordially invited to the conference "At the Limits of Imagination: Otherness in Humans & Nonhuman Animals" 26-28 September 2024 Neues Institutsgebäude, Universitätsstraße 7, Lecture Hall 3D (3rd floor) Keynote speaker: Alice Crary (The New School for Social Research) This three-day conference will focus on the possibilities and limits of imagination and empathy with regards to humans and non-human animals, and on the tensions inherent in comparing or comparatively analyzing both groups. Imagined similarities and dissimilarities play a pivotal role in ethical theories with regards to treatment of both human and non-human groups.It has been argued, for example, that racialized and disabled people, and nonhuman animals, have been discriminated against according to the same logic that grounds inclusion and exclusion upon the possession of certain distinctively human ‘abilities’: rationality, language, autonomy, agency, etc. (e.g., Crary 2016; Taylor 2018; Crary and Gruen 2022).The presumed absence of these ‘abilities’ is equated with a negative and inferior form of embodiment, against which the human norm has in turn been defined. However, conflating their respective ethical status also risks reinforcing the dehumanization of those human groups by instrumentalizing their oppression in the service of animals (Boisseron2019; Crary 2016; Kittay 2019). This conference, organized by Martin Huth, Carlo Salzani, and Ruadhán J. Flynn, will take place at the Department of Philosophy at the University of Vienna as part of the project “The Limits of Imagination: Animals, Empathy, Anthropomorphism” (P 35137-G; funded by the FWF, Austria). Attendance is free, in person and online. Live closed captioning will be available. For the conference program, full accessibility information, and further details, see https://ruadhanjflynn.com/?p=628 To register for online attendance, email ruadhan(dot)flynn(at)vetmeduni.ac.at

Wenn man die engagierten und freudigen Reaktionen bewertet, die diesen Plänen der *Gründung einer Jungen DGPhil* in den letzten Monaten entgegengebracht wurden, gewinnt man den Eindruck, dass viele nur darauf gewartet haben. Deswegen freuen wir uns, heute ein Update zum Status quo der Planungen zu geben: Das Panel der Jungen DGPhil beim XXVI. Deutschen Kongress für Philosophie am 23. September 2024 bildet den Auftakt. Es wird sich mit der Kraft der (digitalen) Vernetzungs- und Kommunikationsfähigkeit der jungen Generation auseinandersetzen und die Frage stellen, was es braucht, um die Ambitionen junger Philosoph:innen zu erhalten, zu fördern und in Taten umzusetzen. Am 24. September 2024 steht dann die Gründungsversammlung auf dem Programm. Derzeit basteln 20 Köpfe am Konzept dieser Veranstaltung und freuen sich darauf, dass es bald endlich losgeht.

Einladung zum 11. Kongress der Österreichischen Gesellschaft für Philosophie

by Raphael Gustavo Aybar Valdivia

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren, wir möchten Sie auf die Verlängerung der deadline für den Call for Papers für den 11. Kongress der Österreichischen Gesellschaft für Philosophie "Zukunft denken" hinweisen. Der Kongress wird vom 25. bis 28. Februar 2025 an der Universität Graz stattfinden. Die neue deadline ist der 31. August 2024. Wir bitten, den Call an Ihrem Institut zu verbreiten und insbesondere auch Doktorand*innen und Nachwuchswissenschafter*innen zu einer Einreichung zu ermuntern. Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Daniela Camhy (Präsidentin der Österreichischen Gesellschaft für Philosophie) Laurin Mackowitz (Generalsekretär der Österreichischen Gesellschaft für Philosophie) ***** English version below ***** CALL FOR ABSTRACTS: 11. KONGRESS DER ÖSTERREICHISCHEN GESELLSCHAFT FÜR PHILOSOPHIE _ZUKUNFT DENKEN_ 25. BIS 28. FEBRUAR 2025 UNIVERSITÄT GRAZ Der 11. Kongress der Österreichische Gesellschaft für Philosophie vom 25. bis 28. Februar 2025 in Graz widmet sich dem thematischen Schwerpunkt „Zukunft denken“. In der Philosophie wird nicht nur nach-, sondern auch mit- und vorgedacht, und zwar im Grundlegenden. Wie sich Zukunft denken lässt, beschäftigt jedoch nicht nur die Philosophie, sondern Gesellschaften und Menschen allgemein, heute mehr denn je und das auf globaler Ebene. Die Zukunft birgt Chancen und Risiken. Wissenschaften, Künste, Unternehmen und Alltagskulturen imaginieren Möglichkeiten, simulieren Szenarien, versuchen sowohl theoretisch als auch empirisch über Konsequenzen nachzudenken und Beziehungen zwischen Bildungs-, Wissens- und Gesellschaftsentwicklung kritisch zu betrachten und neue Konzeptionen zu erarbeiten. Die Philosophie kann nicht beantworten, welche Zukunft die Menschheit erwartet, aber sie kann ihren Beitrag zu Fragen leisten wie: Wie unterscheiden wir Zukunft von der Gegenwart und diese von der Vergangenheit? Was heißt es für die menschliche Lebensweise in der Zeit zu existieren? Wie weit reicht der Gestaltungsbereich von Menschen? Worin gründet der Wunsch, durch technische Entwicklungen der Vergänglichkeit zu entrinnen? Welchen Einfluss haben Technologien auf das menschliche Selbstverständnis, auf die Arbeit und das Leben? Welches Denken kann dazu beitragen, die Herausforderungen des Klimawandels, der Globalisierung, der Digitalisierung, der Künstlichen Intelligenz und der militärischen Auseinandersetzungen zu bewältigen? Wie kann Bildung neu gedacht werden? Welche Verantwortung haben heute lebende Menschen gegenüber zukünftigen Generationen? Wie viel Philosophie steckt in Science-Fiction? Welche Bedeutung kann die Philosophie auch in Zukunft haben, nicht zuletzt an Bildungseinrichtungen und Universitäten? In diesem Kontext eröffnet der 11. Kongress der Österreichischen Gesellschaft für Philosophie ein mehrtägiges Forum, wo gemeinsam Zukunft gedacht wird. Allgemeine Sektionen: • Metaphysik und Ontologie • Ethik • Politische Philosophie • Sozial- und Rechtsphilosophie • Erkenntnis- und Wissenschaftstheorie • Logik und Sprachphilosophie • Technikphilosophie und Anthropologie • Ästhetik, Kultur- und Geschichtsphilosophie • Geschichte der Philosophie • Religionsphilosophie • Kinder- und Jugendphilosophie • Didaktik der Philosophie und Ethik • Philosophie des Geistes Abstracts und Titelvorschläge: Bitte senden Sie Ihr Abstract in Deutsch oder Englisch inklusive Vortragstitel und Sektionszuordnung (max. 300 Wörter) sowie eine Kurzbiographie (max. 200 Wörter) und fünf Keywords bis 31. August 2024 an: info(a)oegp.org Eine Rückmeldung über Ihr eingereichtes Abstract erhalten Sie bis Anfang November 2024. Länge der Vorträge: max. 30 Minuten (plus 10 Minuten Diskussion) Kongresssprachen: Deutsch, Englisch Der 28. Februar 2025 ist für Workshops und Panels reserviert.

It is dedicated to the thematic focus „Thinking the Future“. Philosophy not only involves abstract thought, but also the act of envisioning and anticipating what lies ahead at a fundamental level. However, contemplating the future concerns not only philosophy but also societies and people in general – today more than ever and on a global level. The future holds opportunities and risks. Sciences, the arts, businesses and everyday cultures imagine possibilities and simulate scenarios. They try to think both theoretically and empirically about the consequences and the relationships between the development of education, knowledge and society. Philosophy cannot answer what future awaits humanity, but it can contribute to questions such as: How do we distinguish the future from the present and the present from the past? What are the consequences for life to exist in time? How far can humans extend their scope of influence and domination? What underlies the desire to escape mortality through technological developments? What influence do technologies have on human self-understanding, on work and life? What ways of thinking can help in addressing the challenges posed by climate change, globalization, digitalization, artificial intelligence and military conflicts? How can education be rethought and what options for shaping the future should be developed? What responsibilities and obligations do people living today have towards future generations? What is the relation between philosophy and science fiction? What will be the role of philosophy in the future, in particular at educational institutions and universities? In this context, the 11th Congress of the Austrian Society for Philosophy opens a forum for thinking together about the future. General sections: • Metaphysics and ontology • Ethics • Political philosophy • Social and legal philosophy • Epistemology and philosophy of science • Logic and philosophy of language • Philosophy of technology and anthropology • Aesthetics, philosophy of culture and history • History of philosophy • Philosophy of religion • Philosophy for/with children and youth • Didactics of philosophy and ethics • Philosophy of mind Abstracts and title suggestions: Please send your abstract in German or English including the paper title and section assignment (max. 300 words) as well as a short biography (max. 200 words) and five keywords by August 31st, 2024 to: info(a)oegp.org Feedback on your submitted abstract will be provided by the beginning of November 2024. Length of the presentations: max. 30 minutes (plus 10 minutes discussion) Congress languages: German, English February 28th, 2025 is reserved for workshops and panels.

New VDP Email List

by Vienna Doctoral School of Philosophy

Dear VDP Members, Starting next semester, we will be changing the way we communicate in the VDP. The initial plan is to send VDP members an email once per month with news and events. We are now using this list for this purpose, which you can also use to announce your own events to the VDP community, after being approved by the moderator (see email "Welcome to the "VDP" mailing list!"). Please do not unsubscribe as long as you are a member of the VDP, as this list will substitute the communication via Moodle. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Raphael
