Details

Views on what philosophy is and how it should be done vary widely. Is philosophy concerned with reality or our concepts used for grasping aspects of reality? Does philosophy use a priori or empirical methods? What is the role of intuitions? Of hypothetical cases? What are philosophers trying to find out? Is philosophy a descriptive or a normative discipline, or both? This workshop brings together a diverse group of philosophers who have tried to answer some of these questions. We are looking forward to illuminating talks and fruitful discussions.

This workshop is supported by the PACE  (https://pace.phl.univie.ac.at/) and KiC (https://www.knowledgeincrisis.com/) projects.
