One of the key issues facing XXIst century philosophy is the problem of its self-identification and its proper mode of existence. What is philosophy? A science, an art, or a methodology? How does philosophy interact with sciences, humanities and arts? In what ways does it influence them?

  • Humanities: philosophy in cultural studies, literature, history, religion studies, theology;
  • Social sciences: philosophical theory in sociology, politics, jurisprudence, gender studies;
  • Philosophy: 21-century philosophy, self-identification and philosophy transformation, theory and practice in philosophy, ethics, philosophical anthropology, history of philosophy.

Participants will have an opportunity to:

·         Attend philosophical battles;

·         Participate in round table discussions with famous modern philosophers;

·         Attend exciting lectures by distinguished scientists;

·         Walk around the city and talk openly over a glass of tea :)
