DESCRIPTION:<p>The central focus of the conference is the concept of phronesis\, which originates from Aristotle&rsquo\;s classical philosophy and continues to inspire academics and practitioners across various disciplines to this day. The conference will address two main areas of research related to this concept:</p>\n<p>a) The conceptual analysis of phronesis\;<br>b) Its relevance and use in various fields of applied ethics.</p>\n<p>&nbsp\;Here are a selection of the key questions that we invite participants to explore during the conference:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>How should we understand&nbsp\;phronesis&nbsp\;today (as a disposition\, a skill\, competence or a character trait)?</li>\n<li>What elements does phronesis encompass (moral knowledge\, empathy\, self-control)?</li>\n<li>How can it be acquired and developed (through reflection\, practice\, good examples)?</li>\n<li>Is practical wisdom necessary in today&rsquo\;s world\, and if so\, why?</li>\n<li>What are its applications in the individual or social sphere?</li>\n<li>How is it utilized in applied ethics?</li>\n<li>Is there one universal phronesis\, or should we instead speak of various kinds of practical wisdom characteristic to more specific contexts such as medicine\, law\, teaching\, or politics</li>\n</ul>\n<p>&nbsp\; &nbsp\; &nbsp\; &nbsp\; &nbsp\; &nbsp\; &nbsp\; &nbsp\; &nbsp\; &nbsp\; &nbsp\; &nbsp\; &nbsp\; &nbsp\; &nbsp\; &nbsp\; &nbsp\; &nbsp\; &nbsp\; <strong>&nbsp\; Details of the conference</strong></p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>The conference will last two days.
