Philosophical Schools After 1950
&ndash\; International conference (Warsaw\, May 9&ndash\;10\, 2022)
The second half of the 20th century witnessed the flourishing of important philosophical schools\, mostly in Europe and the Americas. Marxist schools such as the Praxis School\, the Budapest School\, and the Frankfurt School\; schools of phenomenology (e.g.\, in Paris) and of historicism (e.g.\, in Naples)\; schools of logic such as the Brazilian School of Paraconsistent Logic and continuators of the Lvov-Warsaw School\; Thomistic schools such as Laval School in Canada and the Lublin School in Poland. Some of these schools experienced important evolutions: their topics shifted over time\, their members changed\, and they even underwent diasporas for political reasons.
\nToday\, 50 years later\, philosophical schools seem to have lost momentum. Most philosophy departments around the world hire scholars with highly specialized interests in diverse philosophical areas. This heterogeneity allows departments to present a richer and more attractive didactic offer. Does the current setting of Academia declare the end of philosophical schools? Or can 20th century philosophical schools invite us to reconsider the methods and practices of today&rsquo\;s philosophy\, precisely by presenting philosophy as a collaborative endeavor? The study of philosophical schools might foster innovations in philosophy by widening our scientific horizons and academic classifications and expectations.
\nThe conference aims to retrace the origins\, works\, and vicissitudes of philosophical schools after 1950. The purpose is to understand the nature of philosophical schools in that era\, and to investigate whether the notion of philosophical school can still be relevant and useful today to improve philosophical investigations.
