Reading Group invitation

by Martin Kusch

-------- Originalnachricht -------- BETREFF: Reading Group invitation DATUM: 25.11.2024 09:15 VON: Rob Wilson <rwilson.robert(a)gmail.com> AN: Dear Phil colleagues, We are pleased to invite you to join a final reading group associated with the ARC-Discovery Project Keeping Kinship in Mind<https://keepingkinshipinmind.weebly.com/>, based at the University of Western Australia (UWA). The group will focus on the penultimate manuscript of Relational Beings: Kin Matters in the Fragile Sciences, a forthcoming monograph by project lead Professor Rob Wilson that Oxford University Press will publish late in 2025. Our discussions will inform final, post-review changes to the manuscript. The reading group will run weekly in a hybrid format, commencing on Thursday, December 12th with a break of three weeks for Christmas. All readings, room details for in-person meetings at UWA, and Teams links for virtual attendance will be sent to your email (after registration). Meetings will be 1:30 hours long, starting at 2 pm Perth time. To convert to your time zone, you can use this link<https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html>. Relational Beings: Kin Matters in the Fragile Sciences addresses general issues about reductionism, ethnocentrism, the relationships between the cognitive, biological, and social sciences?within the philosophy of anthropology, especially in the study of kinship. The book integrates insights from various disciplines often siloed in discussions of kinship and sociality. The central thread running through the three parts of the book--on relations, on incest and its avoidance, and on kinship--is that we best understand ourselves as relational beings by recognising biological and cognitive dimensions to kinship and our sociality. This runs counter to much recent work within cultural anthropology on kin and kinship. Meeting Schedule: * December 12th: * Chapter 1 Relatively Speaking * Chapter 2 Mindful Relations * December 19th: * Chapter 3 Thinking About Relations Through Locke * Chapter 4 Relations and Anthropological Knowledge * January 9th: * Chapter 5 Incest and its Avoidance in the Fragile Sciences * Chapter 6 Escaping Disciplinary Grooves * January 16th: * Chapter 7 Kinship Past, Kinship Present, & Schneider?s Critique * Chapter 8 Promulgating Progenerativism * January 23rd: * Chapter 9 The Ethnographic Argument * Chapter 10 Why Kinship is Progeneratively Constrained If you plan to attend, please let us know by sending an email to lucia.neco(a)uwa.edu.au<mailto:lucia.neco@uwa.edu.au>. Feel free to join all or selected meetings based on your availability and interest. We will send the December chapters by the end of November; contact Rob Wilson (rwilson.robert(a)gmail.com<mailto:rwilson.robert@gmail.com>) if you want a copy of the whole manuscript in advance. Best, Dr. Lucia C. Neco (she/her) Project Coordinator, Keep Kinship in Mind -- --------------------------------------- Prof. Martin Kusch Univ. of Vienna, Dpt. of Philosophy https://philosophie.univie.ac.at/institut/

New Reading Circle on Philosophy of Sex and Sexuality

by Kristina Bogdan

Dear All, *We are organizing a reading circle based on the topic “Philosophy of Sex and Sexuality”!* To start a conversation about /sex/, we need to be clear what is the scope of the phenomenon we are talking about. For that we need to start with /sexual desire/, which is closely linked to /sexual motivation, arousal, and activity/. That is already closely connected to issues within /politics of sex, sexual orientation, and sexual identity/. When we engage in sexual acts, we are living out our /sexual orientation/. Beyond our orientation, understanding our /sexual identity/ is equally important as part of our personal identity. On top of that, the cultural theory of queer sexual identity plays a crucial role in shaping how we understand and express ourselves in various contexts. An interesting aspect to discuss is /normativity and permissibility of sexual acts/ under the consideration of sexual orientation and non-heteronomous identities. When discussing /good or bad sex/, we usually assume that consent was given to start the encounter. Without consent, the focus shifts to the permissibility of the act itself, with the prevailing view being that consent is morally transformative from impermissible to permissible. Is having the right mental state enough, or can it be implied through certaincommunications? Additionally, to which acts are we consenting? Within the scope of the named phenomenon /objectification/ is a concept, which can be viewed from different angles. The concept of /mutual objectification/ refers to the notion when both partners may objectify each other, which may be seen as problematic because it reduces a person’s humanity to their body. On the other hand, objectification can also be viewed from a /social perspective/, as feminist philosophers argue. For instance, they claim that pornography negatively portrays women’s sexuality, reinforcing harmful stereotypes. In contrast to that, Thomas Nagel offers a different view on objectification as a complex, multi-leveled awareness between two people, where both are mutually aware of each other's desire. *If that sounds interesting to you, don’t hesitate to send me an email – I’d love to hear from you! We plan to start the reading circle next week.* Best, Kristina

IVC Talk: Matteo Collodel (IVC Fellow) "Criticism, Misrepresentation, and Decline: Feyerabend and Logical Empiricism", November 21, 4.45pm

by Zarah Weiss

Dear all, our next speaker in the Philosophy of Science Colloquium organized by the Institute Vienna Circle is Matteo Collodel (IVC Fellow), who will give a talk on November 21, 4.45-6.15 pm. All are welcome! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Philosophy of Science Colloquium TALK: Matteo Collodel (IVC Fellow) CRITICISM, MISREPRESENTATION, AND DECLINE: FEYERABEND AND LOGICAL EMPIRICISM Philosophy of Science Colloquium The Institute Vienna Circle holds a Philosophy of Science Colloquium with talks by our present fellows. Date: 21/11/2024 Time: 16h45 Venue: New Institute Building (NIG), Universitätsstraße 7, 1010 Wien, HS 2G ABSTRACT: Feyerabend became familiar with the Vienna Circle tradition and Logical Empiricism in his formative years in post-war Vienna. However, since his early intellectual trajectory, he made LE one of his favorite critical targets, articulating his criticism in personal dialogue with some of its most distinguished representatives. This paper focuses on the second stage of Feyerabend's sustained assault against LE, examining both Feyerabend's reception of LE and Hempel's response to Feyerabend's challenge. In a series of papers published between 1962 and 1966, Feyerabend relentlessly questioned the descriptive adequacy and the normative desirability of the 'orthodox', logical empiricist, accounts of reduction and explanation advanced by Hempel and Nagel. Feyerabend's persistent criticism shook North American philosophy of science and prompted Hempel's reaction, which appeared in print in the second half of the 1960s. Initially, Hempel retorted that Feyerabend's methodological analysis was 'completely mistaken' and Feyerabend could offer 'no support' for his allegations. This raises interesting historiographical questions about the later reception of LE as it seems that Feyerabend, driven by his anti-authoritarian stance, substantially misinterpreted the logical empiricist research programme, his vantage point notwithstanding. On the other hand, Hempel also recognised that the descriptive issues on which Feyerabend insisted, despite having been long acknowledged by LE, could have more far-reaching consequences than previously envisaged. In fact, by the end of the 1960s, Hempel came to make quite radical concessions, admitting that the standard logical empiricist model for explicating the structure of scientific theories was essentially 'misleading', that the logical empiricist account of reduction was 'an untenable oversimplification', and that the logical empiricist approach as to the meaning of scientific terms was actually 'misconceived'. In this respect, there are good reasons to consider the decline of the logical empiricist research programme in the 1970s at least partly as the result of Feyerabend's stimulating, however misrepresenting, insights.

However, alongside these promises come significant ethical, social, and technical challenges. While AI has been praised for its capacity to address complex issues and foster innovation, concerns about bias, transparency, accountability, and fairness are increasingly urgent. Critics warn that without careful oversight, AI could perpetuate existing inequalities and create new forms of discrimination. Despite these ongoing debates, much of the discourse remains speculative, highlighting the need for deeper empirical and theoretical inquiry into AI's impacts and the social, ethical and political responsibilities that should guide its development. Our symposium provides an opportunity to explore, from social sciences and humanities perspectives and through interdisciplinary conversations, what constitutes responsible AI development, application, and governance. It aims to offer a platform for international researchers to exchange insights, discuss new approaches, and foster interdisciplinary collaborations that will enhance and deepen our understanding of what it means to engage with AI responsibly. We welcome presentations from a wide range of methodological and theoretical perspectives, across the social sciences and humanities.

Advisory editors: Hamid Taieb (Humboldt University of Berlin) & Mark Textor (King's College London) Publication date: April 2027 Carl Stumpf (1848-1936) was a central figure of German-speaking philosophy and psychology at the turn of the twentieth century. He is a pioneer of Gestalt psychology and the philosophy and psychology of music. Stumpf was a pupil of Franz Brentano and Hermann Lotze, and he himself influenced his student Edmund Husserl, as well as psychologists such as Wolfgang Köhler and Max Wertheimer, who were Stumpf's students as well. Stumpf's work is original and contains groundbreaking contributions to a range of topics. He defended nativism about space by arguing that perception has multiple contents. This thought plays also an important role in his analysis of the perception of sound (especially the perception of chords) and it set Gestaltpsychology on its course. His theory of feelings contrasts fruitfully with that of James and Brentano. He worked out a defense of critical realism, a trope ontology, a non-psychologistic epistemology, a detailed analysis of sensory contents, an account of the objectivity of concepts and propositions without abstract objects, and he explored many other specific topics, such as the origins of music. In addition, he devoted much time to reflecting on the subject-matter of the different sciences and on how they should be classified. In parallel to his theoretical investigations, he also made experimentations in psychology and musicology. He corresponded with Gottlob Frege, William James, and Hermann Lotze, among others. Given the originality of Stumpf's work, it is surprising that it is neglected in the literature. There is very little engagement with Stumpf systematically and/or historically. This special issue of _The Monist_ aims to change this situation. Its goal is to unlock the potential of Stumpf's thought and to introduce his work to a broader philosophical audience. It welcomes submissions from experts on Stumpf's philosophy and from experts on philosophers that influenced or were influenced by Stumpf as well as from philosophers that engage with important themes in Stumpf from a contemporary perspective. _Submission Information_ All submissions should be prepared for anonymous review and sent to the advisory editors: hamid.taieb(a)hu-berlin.de and mark.textor(a)kcl.ac.uk Manuscripts received from the call will first go through a pre-selection by the advisory editors. The manuscripts passing it will be sent for full double-blind review process. Word limit: 7'000 words, including notes and references. Please follow the journal's Author Guidelines [4]. ****************************************** (4) VERANSTALTUNGSANKÜNDIGUNG (Darmstadt, 28-29.11.2024) Workshop: Gibt es eine Philosophie des Rechtsextremismus? Bei der Erforschung der Kommunikationsstrategien der „Neuen Rechten" stößt man unweigerlich auf eine verwirrende Erkenntnis: Die Neue Rechte beansprucht immer wieder die Philosophie für sich. Die (akademische) Philosophie hingegen schweigt in der Regel dazu. In diesem interdisziplinären Online-Workshop des BMBF-geförderten Projekts „Meme, Ideen, Strategien rechtsextremistischer Internetkommunikation" (MISRIK) am 28. und 29. November 2024 wird der Frage nachgegangen, ob es eine Philosophie des Rechtsextremismus - als Genitivus Subiectivus wie auch Obiectivus - überhaupt gibt und wenn ja, in welchem Sinne. Auf welche philosophischen Autor*innen, Themen, Probleme, Konzepte, Disziplinen oder Schulen bezieht sich die extreme (neue) Rechte? Um diese Fragen zu beantworten, werden wir aktuelle Phänomene und Diskurse der Neuen Rechten im digitalen Raum sowie (historische) Anleihen bei Philosoph*innen von Carl Schmitt bis Alexander Dugin innerhalb dieser Szene untersuchen. Programm und Anmeldung: https://www.philosophie.tu-darmstadt.de/misrik/veranstaltungen/ws_philosoph… Bitte beachten Sie, dass eine Anmeldung erforderlich ist. Wir senden Ihnen dann rechtzeitig die Zugangsdaten zu Zoom zu.
