Japanese thinkers for their part turned to a critical rethinking of modern philosophy and&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>with it the modern world. They sought not to Westernize Japan but to imagine a new modern Japan&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>andprovidethisnewworldwithitsintellectualfoundations.Theirappropriationofmodern&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>thought\,however\,involvedaradicaltransformationandgoingbeyondmanyofitsinherent&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>problems. At the same time\, Western philosophy and with it the the modern world entered into a&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>crisis from which it has arguably not yet recovered. As a result\, we find ourselves at the beginning&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>ofthe21stcenturyinanevenmoreprecarioussituationthanwedidatthebeginningofthelast&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>century. This conference inquires into the importance of the Kyoto School for our world today. To&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>this end\, we welcome abstracts for proposed papers that focus on the possible avenues of thought&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>offeredby thethinkerswho belongtotheJapanesetraditionoftheKyotoSchoolwidely&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>understood. Papers may focus on any thinker or thinkers in this tradition and on any aspect of their&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>work. What is more\, given the dialogical character of the Kyoto School itself\, papers can continue&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>this dialogical approach. In all cases\, however\, papers should be mining this tradition of thought&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>and making the case for its contemporary importance. &nbsp\;</p>\n<p>Abstracts of no more that 250 words should be sent to: Stephen Lofts (slofts@uwo.ca) by the&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>new deadline of January 10\, 2019.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>For further information or queries\, please contact Stephen Lofts (slofts@uwo.ca) and/or Antonio&nbsp\;</p>\n\n<p>Calcagno (acalcagn@uwo.ca)&nbsp\;</p>\n<br>
