Details

The workshop aims to explore recent developments in feminist philosophy of science, bringing together work that examines the role of values, power dynamics, and situated knowledge in scientific inquiry. We welcome contributions that engage with both classic and emerging themes in the field, including but not limited to:

•Situated knowledge and epistemic standpoint theory

•Feminist perspectives on scientific objectivity

•Feminist approaches to classification (e.g., race, gender, disability)

•Epistemic injustice and marginalization in scientific practice

•Intersectionality and knowledge production

•The role of values and power structures in science

•Institutional and social dimensions of inquiry


•Formal models of scientific inquiry focusing on the above (and related) issues

We especially encourage submissions from early-career scholars and members of underrepresented groups.

Please send an abstract of up to 500 words to [email protected] by May 15, 2025. Notifications of acceptance will be sent out shortly thereafter.

For any questions, feel free to contact the organizers at the same address. We look forward to your submissions!
