Invitation and Streaming Link: 7th Arthur Pap Lecture: Francesca Biagioli (University of Turin), March 27, 5 pm

by Vienna Circle Society

The Institute Vienna Circle and the Vienna Circle Society cordially invite you to the 7th Arthur Pap Lecture Francesca Biagioli (University of Turin) The Relative Necessity of the Kantian A Priori: Cohen, Cassirer, and Reichenbach Thursday, March 27, 2025 5 pm Alte Kapelle am Campus University of Vienna Hof 2, Eingang 2.8 Spitalgasse 2-4 1090 Vienna For those who can't make it to Vienna, the event will also be streamed via YouTube: <https://www.youtube.com/live/4SwyYaZRnMA> Link Registration: <mailto:vcs@univie.ac.at> vcs(a)univie.ac.at No registration fee Abstract A priori knowledge in the Kantian sense is characterized as being independent from experience, insofar as it is necessary for the possibility of experience in general. This notably includes the fundamental principles of geometry and physics. With scientific changes such as non-Euclidean geometry and relativistic physics, there arose the question whether the Kantian a priori ought to be revised in the light of the best current theories or replaced by pragmatic considerations or conventions. This talk will offer a review of the progressive relativization of the Kantian a priori from the Marburg School of neo-Kantianism to Hans Reichenbachs early work. It will then use Paps taxonomy to differentiate among these early relativizing strategies and to contrast them with attempts to relativize the Kantian a priori in contemporary philosophy of science. Short Bio Francesca Biagioli is Associate Professor of History of Philosophy at the University of Turin. Previously, she has been a postdoc at the University of Vienna and at the Zukuftskolleg-University of Konstanz, and a visiting fellow in the Pittsburgh Center for Philosophy of Science. Her research focuses on different traditions within the neo-Kantian movement including Marburg neo-Kantianism, critical realism, the Neo-Friesian School, and on the epistemological views of philosopher-scientists such as Hermann von Helmholtz, Henri Poincaré, Hermann Weyl, Federigo Enriques. She has published the monograph Space, Number, and Geometry from Helmholtz to Cassirer and articles in journals including HOPOS, Studies in History and Philosophy of Science, British Journal for the History of Philosophy, Philosophia Mathematica.

Quantum Outside the Box | Philosophysics: A History of Vienna Quantum Foundations - Speaker: Dr. Flavio Del Santo | 4. April 2025

by Vienna Doctoral School of Philosophy

Dear all, As the world is celebrating the UNESCO International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, the VCQ and VDSP invite you to *Quantum Outside the Box* <https://vcq-quantum.at/quantum-outside-the-box/>, an *interdisciplinary event series* that explores the intersection of quantum physics with other fields, offering researchers fresh perspectives and unexpected connections. The first event will be „*/Philosophysics/: A History of Vienna Quantum Foundations“* Friday, *4 April 2025* *4.30 pm * *Afterwards*: Get-Together with snacks ** *Lise-Meitner lecture Hall*, *Faculty of Physics, University of Vienna* 1st floor, Boltzmanngasse 5, 1090 Vienna *Register for the event **here <https://vcq-quantum.at/quantum-and-history/>****(deadline 31 March 2025)* *Introduction and moderation by Dr. **Maria Eftychia Papageorgiou * <https://www.iqoqi-vienna.at/people/staff/maria-eftychia-papageorgiou>*(IQOQI Vienna, Austrian Academy of Sciences)* *Speaker: Dr. **Flavio Del Santo* <https://ufind.univie.ac.at/de/person.html?id=1015642>*(University of Vienna and University of Geneva)* *Abstract:*While in most universities worldwide, the foundations of quantum mechanics remain outside mainstream research, in Vienna, this field thrives. With two Nobel laureates, E. Schrödinger and A. Zeilinger, for their contributions to the foundations of quantum mechanics, and hundreds of active researchers, Vienna is now recognized as one of the strongholds for quantum foundations. But how did this come about? In this historical journey, we will explore how such a fertile ground for foundational research emerged from a unique cultural milieu dating back to Vienna’s intellectual golden age, when physics and philosophy were deeply intertwined. We will also examine how the rise of Nazi-fascism disrupted this thriving environment and how Viennese institutions struggled to reconstruct modern physics after WWII. Moreover, the postwar era’s pragmatic approach to physics, epitomized by the motto „shut up and calculate,“ relegated quantum foundations to almost taboo status. Even J. Bell, whose inequalities paved the way for quantum nonlocality and quantum information science, received little recognition for his foundational contributions during his lifetime. We will see that, while this was also apparently the case in Vienna, physics and philosophy were never fully disentangled, and foundational interest kept smoldering under the ashes of pragmatism. Please note also our next event: *„Quantum Mechanics and Avant-Garde Music: Shadows of the Void“* *Speaker: **Rakhat-Bi Abdyssagin* <https://www.verlag-neue-musik.de/verlag/authors.php?language=en&authors_id=…> Host: Lin-Qing Chen <https://www.iqoqi-vienna.at/people/staff/linqing-chen>(IQOQI Vienna, ÖAW) Tuesday, *15 April 2025, * *3.30 pm * *Afterwards*: Get-Together with snacks ** *Faculty of Physics, University of Vienna* *Christian-Doppler lecture Hall*, 3rd floor, Boltzmanngasse 5, 1090 Vienna Registration for the quantum&music event is possible here <https://vcq-quantum.at/quantum-and-music/> We are looking forward to seeing you at Quantum Outside the Box! With kind regards, The VDSP and VCQ Team */Quantum Outside the Box/*/is an interdisciplinary event series that explores the intersection of quantum physics with other fields, offering researchers fresh perspectives and unexpected connections. Through engaging talks and discussions, participants gain new insights into the ethical implications of emerging quantum technologies, draw parallels between scientific creativity and artistic expression, and reflect on the historical and philosophical dimensions of quantum discoveries. By bridging disciplines, Quantum Outside the Box challenges researchers to view their work in a broader context and consider its impact beyond traditional scientific boundaries./

IVC Talk: Alexander Reutlinger (LMU) on "Why Strategic Science Skeptics Are Not “Modern-Day Galileos”. Debunking the Argument from Scientific Revolutions", March 20, 4.45pm

by Zarah Weiss

Dear all, our next speaker in the Philosophy of Science Colloquium organized by the Institute Vienna Circle is Alexander Reutlinger (LMU), who will give a talk on March 20, 4.45-6.15 pm. All are welcome! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Philosophy of Science Colloquium TALK: Alexander Reutlinger (LMU) WHY STRATEGIC SCIENCE SKEPTICS ARE NOT “MODERN-DAY GALILEOS”. DEBUNKING THE ARGUMENT FROM SCIENTIFIC REVOLUTIONS Philosophy of Science Colloquium The Institute Vienna Circle holds a Philosophy of Science Colloquium with talks by our present fellows. Date: 20/03/2025 Time: 16h45 Venue: New Institute Building (NIG), Universitätsstraße 7, 1010 Wien, HS 3A Abstract: Strategic science skeptics criticize scientific claims solely to promote non-epistemic (for instance, political and economic) goals. Strategic science skeptics present arguments to support their criticisms of scientific claims. In this paper, I will analyze and debunk a neglected argument exploited by strategic science skeptics: the argument from scientific revolutions (aka the "Galileo gambit"). According to this skeptical argument, strategic science skeptics liken themselves to key figures in scientific revolutions throughout the history of science - in particular, to Galileo Galilei - in order to enhance the credibility of their own claims. In this talk, I will argue that the argument from scientific revolutions is not sound, because at least one of its premises (stating that skeptics are, like Galileo Galilei, revolutionary scientists) is false.

Informationen der DGPhil - 10. Woche

by Martin Kusch

DEUTSCHE GESELLSCHAFT FÜR PHILOSOPHIE E.V. INFORMATIONEN DER DGPHIL 10. KALENDERWOCHE 2025 DER NEUE VORSTAND DER DEUTSCHEN GESELLSCHAFT FÜR PHILOSOPHIE STELLT SICH VOR Am 28. Februar 2025 wurde der neue Vorstand der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Philosophie gewählt. Als erste Frau in der Geschichte des Verbandes übernehme ich dieses Amt. Ich trete es mit der Überzeugung an, dass Deutschlands reiche philosophische Tradition das europäische Denken tiefgreifend geprägt hat und auch von diesem nachhaltig geprägt ist. Von Hildegard von Bingen bis Albertus Magnus, von Elisabeth von Böhmen bis zu Leibniz, von Kant über Hegel, Marx bis zu Edith Stein, Edmund Husserl und Hannah Arendt sind diese Namen feste Bestandteile des europäischen und globalen Ideentransfers. Eingebettet in ihre europäische Tradition entstanden philosophische Bewegungen, deren Ideen und Werte weit darüber hinaus in die globale Welt wirkten. Heute stehen die philosophischen Ideen auf dem Prüfstand, in einer Dynamik, die zugleich neue Perspektiven und Möglichkeiten des Weiterdenkens eröffnet. Die Amtsübernahme geschieht in herausfordernden Zeiten. Die gegenwärtig zu beobachtenden Entwicklungen deuten auf eine Abkehr von einer Periode liberaler Politik hin, die gekennzeichnet war durch die Auflösung von Grenzen und die Überwindung intellektueller Barrieren, einschließlich kontinentaler und ethnischer Grenzen. Wir werden uns aus dem politischen Tagesgeschäft heraushalten, aber wir werden unsere philosophischen Traditionen Europas verteidigen und das mit äußerster Klarheit artikulieren. Zum ersten Mal umfasst der Vorstand fünf Positionen. Zum Vizepräsidenten wurde Gerald Hartung, Professor für Philosophie an der Bergischen Universität Wuppertal gewählt. Dr.in Ingrid Becker, Postdoktorandin an der Ruhr-Universität Bochum und Habilitandin an der Universität Sankt Gallen, übernimmt das Ressort Wissenschaftskommunikation/IT. Das Ressort Schule wird künftig von Dr. Kevin Dear organisiert. Das Ressort Finanzen wird weiterhin von PD Dr. Christian Barth geführt. Der neue Vorstand dankt dem scheidenden Vorstand für sein großes Engagement und seine Unterstützung. Im Namen des neuen Vorstands Prof.in Dr.in Ruth Edith Hagengruber Zum Newsletter: Verwenden Sie für eigene Einreichungen bitte die Schnittstelle unter: https://www.dgphil.de/jobs-events-cfps/einreichen/ Für Anregungen zur Verbesserung unserer Angebote sind wir stets dankbar.

Ph.D. in Philosophy at the Slovak Academy of Sciences

by Vienna Doctoral School of Philosophy

Dear doctoral researchers, There is an open call for PhD students at the Slovak Academy of Sciences. As far as I am aware, the basic scholarship should be for 4 year, 800 euros per month, netto, no taxation. But you should ask this directly to them. If there are some projects, it can be, of course, more. PhD students have a lot of freedom in Slovakia, so in case 800 euros is not enough, they often take some part time jobs, as teachers, translators, or in some philosophy related institutions... Usually it works very well. It is not that much, but you a minimum for Bratislava or Košice. If arrangements are satisfactory, it could be in principle possible to pursue a co-tutelle at the University of Vienna. There is an office at the University that deals with these matters. Plese find the information in the attachment and at this link: http://klemens.sav.sk/fiusav/?q=en Best wishes, Raphael

APSE Talk Series - Natalie Ashton - 27.3. - Creating a Strong Foundation for Neurodiverse Epistemology

by Flora Löffelmann

Dear all, we are delighted to invite you all to the next installment of the APSE talks series organized by the Applied Philosophy of Science and Epistemology Unit at the Department of Philosophy, and to the accompanying reading cycle. The lecture will be given by Natalie Alana Ashton, University of Sterling. When: Thursday, 27.3.2025, 15:00 - 17:00 Where: HS 3A, NIG (Universitätsstraße 7, 1010 Wien) Creating a Strong Foundation for Neurodiverse Epistemology Autistic people have had unprecedented success building effective epistemic communities online. A detailed analysis of the conditions and practices which produced and sustain these communities would be illuminating for both the epistemology of social media and the emerging area of neurodiverse epistemology. However, epistemology has only recently begun to theorise about marginalised groups, and many of its foundational principles are ill-suited to this work. In this talk I'll outline a planned project to develop a novel approach to neurodiverse epistemology, which challenges some of the fundamental assumptions of the early, exploratory literature, and lays the groundwork for a participatory methodology which can do real justice to neurodiverse communities. Speaker Bio: Natalie Alana Ashton works on the political and social aspects of epistemology, and is interested in how oppression and power effect political deliberation in the online sphere. In the past she has focused on theoretical issues (exploring how to integrate feminist standpoint theory and hinge epistemology, whether these views should be understood as relativist, and what that means). Her current work is on the practical applications of such views: what they tell us about social media legislation, platform design, and online communities. As usual, at 13:00 on the day of the talk, there will be a possibility to discuss some core readings of the talk with the APSE reading group. If you wish to obtain the papers, and to partake in the reading cycle, please contact vinzenz.fischer(a)univie.ac.at. Feel free to bring your lunch! We are also happy if you share this invitation with anyone who might be interested! Best wishes, Flora Löffelmann on behalf of the APSE unit -- Flora Löffelmann, MA MA University assistant & doctoral candidate Department of Philosophy at University of Vienna Pronouns: they/them (for more info see: https://www.mypronouns.org/what-and-why/) Happy about a gender neutral "hello"!

Reminder - Save the Date - Doctoral Students Assembly - Monday 17.03 - 18:30-20:00, 2I, NiG

by VD Philosophy

Dear VDP members, This message is to remind you to attend and register for the Doctoral Students Assembly of the summer term. When and Where: Monday, 17 March from 18:30 to 20:00 in room 2i, NIG (2nd floor, Universitätsstraße 7, 1010 Vienna). Agenda: i) New rules for the distribution of ECTs; Working spaces for non-salaried researchers; Pragmatic Academic Series SoSe25 (VDP Coordinator) ii) Reflection on topics raised in the previous assembly on 31 October 2024 (diagnoses, solutions, etc.) iii) Objectives and issues to be addressed at the upcoming VDP Steering Committee meetings and StuKo meetings iv) Observations, questions, suggestions on behalf of the doctoral researchers. I kindly ask you to attend the doctoral student assembly. This is the most important forum for the doctoral students. Apart from being a social forum for a community that does not have so many opportunities for interaction, it is also the main place to raise concerns, discuss issues, and gather input to improve our doctoral education. The issues raised in the assembly are collected by the student representatives and brought to our government for action. Thus, this forum is essential for the government to make policies that are in line with your interests. Apart from this, the student representatives organize some social time over pizza and drinks. In order to plan for this and to avoid waste, they kindly ask you to confirm your attendance by email to mira.magdalena.sickinger(a)univie.ac.at, ideally before Sunday, March 16. We would be very grateful for your future participation and registration. Thank you for reading this message and considering this request, Raphael -- MSc. Mag.
