DESCRIPTION:<p>Much of our memories\, narratives\, and knowledge are social in character: collectively generated and interdependent. To a large extent\, the philosophical discourses on these issues &ndash\; questions of how we &lsquo\;think together&rsquo\; &ndash\; have been conducted separately. Thinking together: Interdisciplinary Workshop on Collective Memory &amp\; Collective Knowledge attempts to bring these discourses into dialogue and\, what is more\, tap into related debates occurring in philosophy\, cultural history and indigenous studies to deepen our understanding of the fundamentally social aspect of who we are and how we make sense of ourselves and the world around us.</p>\n<p>The aim of Thinking Together is to be an interdisciplinary effort to share and explore innovative ways to understand collective thinking and collective knowledge to stimulate the reflection on their role as valuable sources of knowledge for different humanistic\, social\, and scientific disciplines.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p><strong><br></strong></p>\n<p><strong>Confirmed speakers:</strong>&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>&bull\; Nicolas&nbsp\;Bullot (Charles Darwin University)<br>https://researchers.cdu.edu.au/en/persons/nicolas-bullot</p>\n<p>&bull\; Kellie&nbsp\;Pollard (Charles Darwin University)<br>https://researchers.cdu.edu.au/en/persons/kellie-pollard</p>\n<p>&bull\; Rob Wilson (University of Western Australia)<br>https://robwilsonphilosophy.com/&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>&bull\; Glenda Satne (University of Wollongong)<br>https://philpeople.org/profiles/glenda-satne&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>&bull\; Anne&nbsp\;Schwenkenbecher (Murdoch University)<br>https://philpeople.org/profiles/anne-schwenkenbecher</p>\n<p>&bull\; Alberto&nbsp\;Guerrero Vel&aacute\;zquez (University of Western Australia) https://philpeople.org/profiles/alberto-guerrero-velazquez</p>\n<p><u>Online speakers:</u></p>\n<p>&bull\; Alessandro&nbsp\;Portelli<br>https://independent.academia.edu/PortelliAlessandro</p>\n<p>&bull\; John&nbsp\;Sutton (Macquarie University)<br>https://johnsutton.net/</p>\n<p><strong><br></strong></p>\n<p><strong>Presentations</strong></p>\n<p>This workshop aims to bring together participants from at least four areas: Philosophy (social epistemology\, philosophy of mind\, philosophy of memory)\, Cognitive sciences\, Indigenous studies\, and History.
