SUMMARY:3rd Annual Notre Dame HPSTV Conference: Reasoning in the Historical Sciences
UID:20260418T093547Z-iCalPlugin-Grails@philevents-web-f5d4878dd-x5n6c
TZID:America/Indiana/Indianapolis
LOCATION:Notre Dame\, United States
DESCRIPTION:<p>Understanding scientific explanation is an enduring task for philosophers and historians of science. Despite early attempts to unify scientific explanation\, it is now largely recognized that the historical sciences-- a diverse group that (arguably) includes archaeology\, paleontology\, evolutionary biology\, cosmology\, and/or climate science-- may appeal to different patterns of explanation than the experimental sciences. Beyond explanation\, the historical sciences and experimental sciences may also differ in how they make predictions\, model data\, gather and analyze evidence\, confirm theories\, and incorporate values. The methodological differences between historical and experimental science may motivate pluralism with respect to scientific method and justification. But it has also been argued that these differences reflect the <em>limitations</em> of the historical sciences. These limitations could stem from an inability to intervene on their subject matter experimentally\, a difficulty in reaching universal laws\, and/or a focus on singular events in the deep past. To further explore these issues\, the graduate students of the University of Notre Dame&rsquo\;s History and Philosophy of Science Ph.D. program\, administered by the John J. Reilly Center for Science\, Technology\, and Values\, will convene atwo day conference for the purposes of exploring questions concerning reasoning in the historical sciences.</p>\n<p>The conference will consist of invited speakers as well as graduate student submissions. Depending on time and interest\, there may also be a professional development workshop on how lessons from the history and philosophy of the historical sciences can be integrated into the science classroom and (vice versa) how questions and case studies from the historical sciences can be integrated into the history and philosophy of science curriculum.</p>\n<p>Invited Speakers:</p>\n<p>Adrian Currie (University of Exeter)<br>Nora Mills Boyd (Siena College)<br>Max Dresow (University of Minnesota)<br>Meira Gold (York University)</p>\n\n<p>CFP:&nbsp\;https://philevents.org/event/show/96057</p>
