LOCATION:Splaiul Independentei nr. 204\, Bucharest\, Romania
DESCRIPTION:<p>New approaches and advances in philosophy\, psychology\, neuroscience\, and rising interest and development in alternative views regarding the concept of self\, gave rise to novel discussions and debates about what constitutes the self\, or even if there is such a &ldquo\;thing&rdquo\; as a self. Therefore\, <strong><em>Conceptualising the Self</em></strong> aims to bring together researchers working in fields such as (but not limited to): philosophy\, cognitive science\, psychology\, neuroscience\, sociology\, anthropology\, in order further our understanding and promote interdisciplinary dialogue concerning novel developments that have implications for how the self is conceived.</p>\n<p>We encourage contributions addressing the following questions:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Should research on self aim to give an integrated account of the concept?&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>Given that there is no single theory that seems to adequately capture the concept\, should the focus be on developing a pluralistic perspective? Or should the concept be abandoned completely?&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>How does work in cognitive science contribute research about the self?&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>What role do 4E approaches to cognition play when it comes to debates about what constitutes the self?&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>Is the self constituted by narratives? In what way is the self constituted by narratives? What function do they have in the constitution of the self?&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>What implications does research on the concept of self have for research that is concerned with authenticity or self-knowledge?&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>How do no-self approaches account for aspects of our experience that are usually attributed to the self?</li>\n</ul>\n<p>If you want to attend the event may register at the <strong>ubphilosophymasters@gmail.com</strong> (or by RSVP here on PhilEvents) on or before the 31st of May in order to receive the Zoom connection details if you want to attend online.</p>\n<p>The conference will take place on <strong>May 31st and July 1st in Bucharest\, Romania</strong>. It will have a <strong>mixed</strong> format\, in that speakers may choose whether they present online only or face to face at the event's location (if so\, their session will enjoy a live audience\, but it will also be streamed to remote participants).</p>
