DESCRIPTION:<p><strong>&laquo\;Teoria&raquo\;\, 1/2014</strong> <strong><em>Ripensare la &lsquo\;natura&rsquo\;/ Rethinking &lsquo\;Nature&rsquo\;</em></strong> &nbsp\; &nbsp\;</p>\n<p><strong>Guest Editor: Flavia Monceri</strong> &nbsp\; &nbsp\;</p>\n<p><strong>Call for papers:</strong> &nbsp\;</p>\n<p>The notion of nature is one of the most recurring\, and perhaps questioned notions\, in Western philosophy and the social sciences. Although its definition was never obvious\, nature currently seems in need of a more radical rethinking\, also due to the increasing relevance of researchfields that compel to its revision. This is just the goal of the present issue of&nbsp\;&laquo\;Teoria&raquo\;\, by means of collecting contribution coming not only from philosophical but also social\, psychological\, literary and artistic sciences\, at the aim to provide a reconstruction of the state of the art about the current definitions of nature and their implication for the concrete practices\, which explicitly or implicitlyrefer to it. But there is a further goal: to let a number of hints emerge to correct\, modify or even replace current definitions and understandings of nature with more adequate ones to constitute an effective reference forthe problems of our time. &nbsp\; Contribution may be submitted\, among others\, on the following issues\, which are non-exhaustively listed: &nbsp\;</p>\n<ul>\n<li>The notion of nature&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>Representations of nature&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>Nature and culture\, nature/nurture&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>Nature\, environment\, human being&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>Nature and biotechnologies&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>Nature and human bodies&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>Nature and cultural context(s)&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>Nature and transcendence&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>Nature\, power and politics&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>&lsquo\;Real&rsquo\; and &lsquo\;virtual&rsquo\; nature &nbsp\; &nbsp\;</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Alongside some invited contributions\, some others will be selected among the submitted ones.Prospectiveauthors should send an abstract (max 1000 words) to the following e-mail addresses by 31th March 2013:info@rivistateoria.eu\,&nbsp\;fabris@fls.unipi.it&nbsp\;(Prof. Adriano Fabris) andryuko2001@aol.com&nbsp\;(Prof. Flavia Monceri) with the indication &ldquo\;Teoria-Rethinking Nature&rdquo\; in the subject heading.Abstracts will be peer-reviewed and the acceptance or refusal of the submission will be notified by 30th&nbsp\;April 2013.
