APSE talk by Gurminder K. Bhambra on "Critical Theory and the Need for a Political Economy of Colonialism", Nov 14th, 3-5 PM, ONLINE

by Irene Salzmann

Dear all, We are happy to invite you to the first APSE (Applied Philosophy of Science and Epistemology) lecture of the semester, with a talk by Gurminder K. Bhambra (University of Sussex). Title: Critical Theory and the Need for a Political Economy of Colonialism When/Where: Thursday, 14th of November, 3-5 pm, ONLINE! You can join the event via the following Zoom link: https://univienna.zoom.us/j/69090163424?pwd=Y2JCxwmd7L88U1OPOLw7OCrGuuxZIe.1 Abstract: Frankfurt School critical theory is grounded in a theory of capitalist modernity which, in common with wider sociological approaches, elides histories of colonialism. This results in a misdiagnosis of current problems of inequality and inadequate solutions for their address. Many critical theorists, for example, focus primarily on issues of redistribution associated with a capital-labour relation organised nationally and now seen to be threatened by globalisation and migration. Such an understanding fails to account for how the decommodification of labour through the development of national welfare arrangements in the West – an explicit issue for critical theory from Habermas's "Legitimation Crisis" onward – has been bound to wider colonial histories and, specifically, colonial patrimonies. A proper address of these issues requires a more expansive approach to distributive justice conducted in a reparative frame that recognizes the ways in which the legacies of our shared, but asymmetrically experienced, colonial pasts continue to configure the present and its possibilities. It involves making colonial histories central to understandings of capitalist modernity and to the normative address of inequalities that otherwise risk being legitimated by the standard accounts of critical theory. In this talk, I take issue with the central conceptualisation of modern society as capitalist at its core, and the way in which capitalism is understood separately from colonialism. I further question the implicit nationalism of critical theory and argue that what is missing from it is a political economy of colonialism. Please feel free to share this invitation with anyone who might be interested. All details can also to be found here: https://apse.univie.ac.at/news-events/detailsansicht/news/critical-theory-a… Best wishes, Irene Salzmann (on behalf of the APSE unit)

The position will be affiliated with the Chair of Theoretical Political Science (Prof. Dr. Johannes Marx) at the Otto-Friedrich-Universität Bamberg or the Chair of Philosophy I (Prof. Dr. Olivier Roy) at the University of Bayreuth as part of the research project "Simulating Collective Agency "(SColA), funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft. Description: The SColA project studies mechanisms underlying the emergence and stability of collective agency. It first investigates the role of shared beliefs and intentions for the emergence and stability of collective agents, and second, it studies how these shared attitudes contribute to the stability, growth, or decline of autonomy in such groups. The project will do so through a computational and game-theoretical study of so-called' team reasoning' (Bacharach, 2006), an extension of classical non-cooperative game theory in which the players can reason either individually or as a team member. Candidate profile: * Initiative and aptitude for teamwork. * Background in Philosophy or Political Science, interested in theoretical questions and computational approaches. * Familiarity with decision, game theory, and practical philosophy in the analytic tradition. * Basic experience with programming. The position is relatively flexible and can be adapted to the successful candidate's timeline and experience, e.g. by turning it to a 1.0 FTE for a shorter period. Its main purpose is to conduct scientific research related to the SColA project. It could, however, also be used to prepare a funding application for a follow-up position. The SColA project finishes on November 30th, 2025, and the position cannot be extended beyond that date. Remote work is possible.

Organized by: Christian Herzog (Universität zu Lübeck) & Deniz Sarikaya (Vrije Universiteit Brussels & Universität zu Lübeck) == Topic: In 1960, physicist and Nobel Laureate Eugene Wigner wrote an article entitled "The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Mathematics in the Natural Sciences." Wigner was surprised that the mathematical structure of a physical theory not only accurately describes the physical world but also leads to new predictions and further advances. This phenomenon puzzled him, leading to the term "unreasonable effectiveness": Why is mathematics so effective in describing the natural world? More recently, a Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded for work that many might consider to belong to computer science. The first image of a black hole, for example, relied heavily on sophisticated code. Formal tools are now integral to many complex measurements, cutting across various scientific practices. We are organizing a two-day exploratory workshop. The main theme will broadly explore the applicability of mathematics both within and outside its traditional boundaries. Day 1 will focus on the use of mathematical tools in the sciences, particularly in the life sciences. The life sciences are increasingly becoming more mathematical, and there are ongoing fruitful discussions-both scientific and philosophical-on how mathematics should be coordinated with biological and medical phenomena. Day 2 will shift to internal mathematical considerations, such as how formal tools, like theorem-proving software, can be applied to these interdisciplinary efforts. Moreover, "applicability" has become a major theme in mathematical research, as some analytical resources prove to be more suitable for different contexts within pure mathematics. This is a topic that has recently garnered the attention of philosophers of mathematics, especially those interested in the "practice turn" in philosophy. Finally, a common thread throughout both days of the workshop is the ethical dimension. The way we mathematize and quantify the real world, and how automation influences various fields, has wide-reaching implications for society and numerous professional practices. == Speakers: * Thorsten Altenkirch (University of Nottingham) * Ozan Altan Altinok (CELLS, Leibniz Universität Hannover) * Bernhard Fisseni (Universität Duisburg-Essen) * Christian Herzog (Universität zu Lübeck) * Deborah Kant (Universität Hamburg) * Benedikt Löwe (Universität Hamburg & Cambridge University) [Online] * José Antonio Perez-Escobar (UNED, Madrid) * Bernhard Schröder (Universität Duisburg-Essen) * Cristina Villegas (Universidade de Lisboa) * Diedrich Wolter (Universität zu Lübeck) * More TBA == Supported by: Die Akademie der Wissenschaften in Hamburg, Ethical Innovation Hub of the Universität zu Lübeck, and Institut für Medizingeschichte und Wissenschaftsforschung der Universität zu Lübeck.

At the same time, a promising hypothesis in the theory of normativity is that normative phenomena (including moral phenomena) can be explained in terms of reasons, i.e., in terms of the factors that count in favour of actions or attitudes. The aim of this workshop is to investigate and discuss the relation between moral rights and normative reasons. The workshop will focus on (but is not limited to) questions such as the following: What are the connections between moral rights, moral duties, and moral reasons? Can rights be analysed in terms of reasons or should rights be regarded as reason-providing? What (if anything) do reasons-based analyses of rights imply for the justification of moral rights and for first-order moral theory? What can our best accounts of moral rights contribute to our understanding of normative reasons? Participation is free, but registration is required and places are limited.

Reminder: Summer School Proposals/Thesis Completion Fellowship - Deadline: 18.11.24

by Vienna Doctoral School of Philosophy

Dear Doctoral Researchers, I would like to remind you that two of our important deadlines are approaching. If you have any questions about either, please feel free to contact this office. Best, Raphael 1. Summer School Organization Call (deadline 18 Nov) Information at https://vd-philosophy.univie.ac.at/phd-program/doctoral-training/summer-sch… 2. Thesis Completion Fellowship (deadline 18 Nov) The goal of the fellowship is to support highly qualified doctoral students successfully complete their dissertations within the funding period of up to 6 months. To apply for the fellowship, you and your supervisor(s) must submit a completed application, which is available in our Moodle (in "All Forms"). Amount: EUR 1,050 per month Duration: up to 6 months The scholar will not be provided with office space at the university. The scholar may not have received financial support for the doctoral project for more than two years (through contractual employment with the university, a third party, or a fellowship) and not within the six months prior to application. At the time of application, work on the dissertation must have progressed to the point where it can be realistically expected that the dissertation can be submitted by the end of the funding period (maximum 6 months). Multiple funding from other organizations or the university is excluded. Recipients are responsible for all taxes and insurance during the fellowship period and are advised that any net annual income in excess of EUR 8,580 will be taxable. The scholarship will be considered as "income from self-employment".
