This one-day workshop will explore these two notions and their relation to \;the attributions of beliefs and other attitudes. \;
\nThe topics addressed in the workshop will include:
\nThe semantics and pragmatics of attitude reports
\nThe nature and psychological role of mental files
\nThe \;content \;of mental files and their relation to proper names
\nThe motivations for positing unarticulated constituents \;
\nThe relationship between mental files and attitude reports
\nThe relationship between \;unarticulated constituents \;and attitude reports
\n
Speakers
For more than sixty years\, \;developments in linguistic theory (particularly in the generative tradition) have significantly influenced philosophers' thinking about language and the mind. Likewise\, philosophers' discussions on the nature of language\, the mind\, and the world have influenced how linguists understand and model language.
\nThis conference brings together philosophers and linguists to discuss topics in the philosophy of generative grammar and linguistic developments that may be of interest to philosophers.
\nSpeakers
\nWe welcome submissions addressing anything that falls within the intersection of Philosophy\, Politics and Economics\, broadly construed. \;We are especially seeking sessions that bring together people from different disciplines or with different perspectives.
\n\nWhether you are submitting a full session or panel proposal (with three different speakers) or a single-paper proposal\, we are asking for \;anonymized abstracts \;for each speaker&rsquo\;s contribution. If you are submitting a single paper\, please choose one of the twenty-four (24) topics under which your paper most closely aligns. \;
\n\n\nThe priority deadline for submissions is May 1\, 2026.
\nAlthough the priority deadline for proposals and submissions is a hard deadline\, we would be grateful for early submissions. \;Please also note that we require speakers and moderators to be in person to deliver the program talks.

\n10th Conference of the International Network Hegel&rsquo\;s Relevance
\nHegel on Historicity
\nAthens\, Greece
\n5-7 November 2026
\nDespite important precedents in Augustine\, Bossuet\, Voltaire\, Kant\, and Herder\, Hegel is widely regarded as the first philosopher of history&mdash\;not only because he subjected history to philosophical inquiry\, but above all because he thematized the historicity of philosophy itself. Alongside his much-debated philosophy of world history\, Hegel repeatedly stressed\, throughout his oeuvre and especially in numerous programmatic and introductory remarks\, that philosophy\, including all metaphysical categories\, and even rationality itself is substantially conditioned by history&mdash\;by world history as well as by the histories of empirical sciences\, art\, religion\, and philosophy. For Hegel\, history articulates the very possibility of the actual spirit (Geist) in all its forms: there is no subjective\, objective\, or absolute spirit without history. This emphasis famously inspired Marx to describe the &ldquo\;science of history&rdquo\; as the &ldquo\;sole science.&rdquo\;
\nThis conference aims to discuss central aspects of history and historicity in Hegel&rsquo\;s philosophy from a systematic perspective. Possible guiding questions include\, but are not limited to:
\nWe invite postdoctoral researchers working in the field to submit an abstract (maximum 500 words) addressing one or more of these topics. The conference will include four postdoctoral slots. Coverage of accommodation costs is subject to available funding.
\nA collected volume based on the conference papers is planned for publication in the series Critical Studies in German Idealism (BRILL). The publication language will be English.
\nLength of papers: 30 minutes presentation\, followed by 15 minutes of discussion

\nPanel at the 2026 MANCEPT Workshops in Political Theory\, 2-4 September 2026
\n&ldquo\;Toleration&rdquo\; has long been a central concept in political philosophy\, yet its role in education remains surprisingly under-theorised. Philosophers typically analyse tolerance as forbearance: refraining from interfering with practices or ways of life one disapproves of. By contrast\, educational policy\, public debate\, and classroom practice often invoke tolerance in a thicker sense\, associating it with open-mindedness and being &ldquo\;non-judgemental&rdquo\;. This divergence raises a set of questions about what tolerance should mean in educational contexts\, and what schools can legitimately be expected to teach.
\nThis panel will explore the concept\, justification\, and practical implications of tolerance in education. It will bring together work in political philosophy and philosophy of education to examine how tolerance should be understood when the subjects are children and young people rather than adults\, and when the setting is the classroom rather than the public square.
\nOne set of questions concerns conceptual analysis. In the educational context\, is tolerance best understood as non-interference\, as non-disapproval\, as open-mindedness\, or as something else entirely? Are these rival concepts in tension\, or can they play complementary roles at different stages of education or in relation to different kinds of disagreement? Should tolerance be understood as a civic virtue\, a moral attitude\, an epistemic virtue\, or a cluster of beliefs and practices? And how does tolerance differ from neighbouring ideals such as respect\, recognition\, and inclusion?
\nA second set of questions concerns \;legitimacy and justification. Liberal political theory has traditionally been wary of state efforts to shape citizens&rsquo\; beliefs or attitudes. Yet schools routinely aim to influence how students think and feel about others\, and educational policy often treats certain attitudes &ndash\; racism and sexism\, for example &ndash\; as objectionable in themselves. When\, if ever\, is it legitimate for the state\, acting through its educational institutions\, to promote or discourage particular attitudes? And does the justification for tolerance in education rest on harm prevention\, autonomy\, or something else?
\nThird\, there are questions relating to \;feasibility and efficacy. Can tolerance be taught\, and if so\, what does successful teaching look like? How should philosophical accounts of tolerance respond to recent challenges questioning whether tolerant attitudes can be taught?
\nPresentations are likely to take the form of 30 mins presentation followed by 25 mins Q&\;A. The Q&\;A will be friendly and exploratory\, and there is no need for your paper to be near final form &ndash\; it can be a work-in-progress. Participants will be encouraged to submit and read papers in advance\, but this will not be a requirement.
\nLike all other MANCEPT workshops this year\, this event will take place in-person only.
\nFor information about the conference\, see the conference website: https://sites.manchester.ac.uk/mancept/mancept-workshops/
\nPlease note that registration\, travel and accommodation fees must be covered by speakers themselves. Information on current registration fees will be available on the MANCEPT website.

CFP:
How do we remember and represent our migration experiences? Who is involved in these processes? How does history remember these events? What helps migrants and societies to adapt? The significance of these and related questions have made their way into our daily lives\, from the refugee crisis to policy decisions\, individual psychotherapy to (re)building identities\, communities\, and memories.
During the conference\, we are going to turn our attention to processes that are integral to human experience: migration\, adaptation\, and memory. We are interested in all aspects of migration and adaptation\, in their individual and collective dimensions\, in the past and in the present-day world. We would like to examine the role of memory\, the processes of migrating and adapting to various dynamic life circumstances\, across time\, space\, culture\, language\, and discipline.
Therefore\, we strive to represent and discuss the crossroads of migration\, adaptation\, and memory in their multiple representations: psychological\, social\, historical\, cultural\, philosophical\, religious\, neurological\, organizational\, methodological\, economic\, political\, and many others. We will also devote considerable attention to how these phenomena appear and transform in artistic practices: literature\, film\, theatre\, and visual arts. This is why we invite researchers representing various academic disciplines: anthropology\, history\, psychiatry\, psychology\, psychoanalysis\, sociology\, politics\, philosophy\, economics\, law\, literary studies\, theatre studies\, film studies\, design\, project management\, memory studies\, migration studies\, consciousness studies\, dream studies\, gender studies\, postcolonial studies\, medical sciences\, cognitive sciences\, and urban studies\, to name a few.
Different forms of presentations are encouraged\, including case studies\, theoretical inquiries\, personal reflections\, problem-oriented arguments\, comparative analyses\, and creative expressions.
We will be happy to hear from experienced scholars and young academics\, doctoral and graduate students\, as well as professionals from various disciplines. We also invite all persons interested in participating in the conference as listeners\, without giving a presentation.
Our repertoire of suggested topics includes but is not limited to:
I. Arts
-Literature\, poetry\, film\, theatre\, etc. as adaptive mediums
-Adaptation through artistic creation and destruction
-Artistic imagination and adaptation
-Migration as represented in arts
-Art created during migration

II. History
-Adaptation across history
-Memory processes in writing history
-Documenting history and memories in migration
III. Political Sciences and Law
-Policies related to migration and adaptation

Organized by NTU's Foundations of Thermodynamics Group\, and co-organized with Miguel Ohnesorge (Boston University)\, the aim of the second Foundations of Thermodynamics Workshop is to seek and provide a conceptual history of equilibrium and static reasoning. Bringing together historians and philosophers of science\, we hope to have a clearer picture of the genealogy of equilibrium and static reasoning\, and its role in scientific theorizing. By tracing the idea from Archimedean mechanics\, to Newton and the post-Newtonians\, classical thermodynamics\, quantum mechanics\, general relativity\, contemporary quantum and gravitational physics\, biology\, and economics\, we hope to provide a deeper understanding of this distinctive mode of reasoning and explanation as it changes shape and texture throughout the history of science. \;
\nThose interested are invited to register for the workshop early\, as there are limited seats and catering available. \;The workshop follows a week of events to do with philosophy of science\, notably the Asian Philosophy of Science Association's inaugural meeting. For more information on registration\, the APSA conference\, and other satellite events\, please visit: \;https://www.ntu.edu.sg/soh/news-events/conferences/apsa-2026. \;

\n
The workshop will feature discussions and comments on the book by Axel Gelfert\, Catarina Dutilh Novaes\, Wendy Parker\, Angela Potochnik\, Silvia de Toffoli\, and Peter Vickers\, with graduate student commentaries by Yuang Chen\, Luca Molinari\, and Anish Seal\, and a round-table discussion featuring Jacob and the invited speakers.

The Program promotes the study of Ancient Greek Philosophy in its full historical and thematic scope. It is one of the very few programs worldwide dedicated exclusively to Ancient Philosophy as a subject of systematic study and research. The Athens MA is a collaboration between three major Greek universities\, which have joined forces to establish a highly competitive Program:
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; National and Kapodistrian University of Athens
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; University of Patras
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; University of Crete
\nCourses are taught in Athens by professors from Greek universities and visiting scholars from international institutions. Upon completing the program\, students will be equipped to conduct independent and collaborative research and will be well-prepared to pursue doctoral studies. The program admits up to 20 students per academic year.
\nThe Program&rsquo\;s duration is a full academic year (12 months &ndash\; 75 ECTS): two Semesters of courses are followed by a Summer Term\, during which students will prepare and submit a master's thesis. The fees of the Program amount to 3.000 &euro\;. Language of instruction is English. Knowledge of Ancient Greek and Latin is desirable but not required\; several opportunities to learn Ancient Greek are available in Athens\, offered by the Program or other institutions.
\nCandidates may submit their applications between April 1 and June 30\, 2026.

The plural and distributed materialities of digital systems span beyond physical objects\, but encompass code\, electromagnetic waves\, and sensory outputs in complex and multiple communicating layers. How does the agency act as this morphing web? Following a post-human stance\, neither digital nor human cognition is assumed to be contained within an algorithmic nucleus. Instead\, it is conceived as emerging through relations across each stratum\, whose analytical isolation is not intended to fix ontologies\, but to map a topology of multiple\, non-linear processes through which agencies coalesce. To move beyond the limits of this configuration and to encourage crossing of boundaries\, we invite trans-disciplinary experimental and highly speculative inquiry and action into the machinic as event\, intra-action\, and formation of being.

While Husserl famously positioned phenomenology as a rigorous science of essences\, focused on the structures of consciousness and the epoché\;\, he also emphasized the inseparability of experience from its temporal\, cultural\, and historical horizons. His methodological rigor has often been interpreted as apolitical\, privileging descriptive clarity over engagement with collective life. Subsequent phenomenologists&mdash\;ranging from Merleau-Ponty\, Sartre\, and Arendt to Fanon\, Young\, Levinas\, Butler\, Schutz\, and Derrida&mdash\;have demonstrated that these structures of meaning\, intersubjectivity\, and experience carry profound political implications. Their work shows that politics is not only enacted in institutions but lived\, embodied\, and experienced\, and that power\, legitimacy\, and social norms are shaped through both visibility and concealment\, presence and absence.
\nThis conference builds on these insights\, exploring the reciprocal transformation between phenomenology and politics: phenomenology illuminates political phenomena\, while political realities&mdash\;inequalities\, conflicts\, and power asymmetries&mdash\;reshape phenomenological inquiry. The conference seeks to foster dialogue on how political worlds are constituted\, contested\, and transformed through experience\, social practices\, and collective recognition. Particular attention will be given to the relational and structural dimensions of power\, the temporal and historical constitution of political life\, and the ways in which phenomenology can both reveal and be reshaped by these realities.
\nBy foregrounding experience\, structural dynamics\, and methodological innovation\, the conference aims to create a space for international dialogue among scholars investigating how phenomenology and politics transform one another\, offering insights into authority\, legitimacy\, inequality\, and the lived dimensions of political life.
\nWe welcome abstracts addressing\, but not limited to:
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; Methodological Innovation: How phenomenological methods evolve when applied to political phenomena\, and how engagement with political realities reshapes conceptual and analytic frameworks.
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; Experience and Embodiment: Lived\, bodily\, and affective dimensions of political life\, including trust\, conflict\, solidarity\, exclusion\, and resistance.
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; Power\, Presence\, and Absence: How visibility\, concealment\, and structural asymmetries shape political authority\, legitimacy\, and relational dynamics.
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; Political Ontology and Structures: How social\, institutional\, material\, and historical conditions constitute political realities\, making them intelligible\, contestable\, and transformable.
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; Temporal and Historical Dimensions: Memory\, anticipation\, rupture\, and the opening of political futures.
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; Subjectivation\, Emancipation and Agency: How political realities shape subjectivity\, identity\, and collective self-understanding\, and how these processes inform phenomenological inquiry.
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; Technology and Mediation: The role of technology\, media\, and communication infrastructures in shaping political experience\, authority\, and participation.

\nPLATO &\; POLITICAL LANGUAGE
\nFeaturing two keynote lectures\, one by Claudia Baracchi (Milano-Bicocca) and another by Albert Joosse (Groningen)\, the symposium aims to explore the field of political language in Plato. Plato&rsquo\;s critical appraisal of poetry\, rhetoric\, and sophistry is well-documented\, as is his employment of the dialogue form to challenge the social and political relevance of influential intellectuals such as Gorgias\, Prodicus\, and Protagoras. However\, Plato&rsquo\;s own discursive preference\, sometimes labeled dialectic\, is rarely taken to matter for his political interests. Commonly identified as the antithesis of eristic discourse or discursive competition\, Plato&rsquo\;s political commitments to dialectic &ndash\; characterized by shared deliberation\, joint inquiry\, and consensual ideals &ndash\; are still highly contentious. The purpose of this symposium is to explore this topic\, discuss the difference between eristic and dialectic discourse\, to ask why collaborative deliberation is often favored over competitive\, and to reinvigorate Plato&rsquo\;s relevance for questions about public deliberation.
\nThe event is free and open to all\, but please send a brief email to info@scaph.se if you intend to come.

\nA number of other instructors will participate in the summer school\, including Paul Griffiths (University of Sydney and Macquarie University)\, Matthew Sims (Macquarie University)\, Peter Takacs (Macquarie University)\, and Cristina Villegas (Konrad Lorenz Institute).
\nAbout the Summer School
\nThis summer school is a yearly event sponsored and organized by the Sino-Australian Philosophy of Life Sciences Network (SAPoLSN)\, which was initiated by the Philosophy Discipline within the School of Humanities at Macquarie University\, the Department of Philosophy at Peking University\, and the School of Philosophy at Fudan University. Its purpose is to introduce the most important recent developments in the philosophy of life sciences to graduate students and young scholars\, to promote research and educational cooperation between Chinese and international philosophers of science\, and to promote collaboration between the philosophy of life sciences and the sciences. The first two SAPoLSN Summer Schools were successfully held at Peking University in Beijing in summer 2024 and at Fudan University in Shanghai in summer 2025.
\nThis year&rsquo\;s summer school will be held from August 17&ndash\;22\, 2026\, and will be hosted by the \; Macquarie Minds and Intelligences Research Centre (headed by Andrew Barron) and the School of Humanities at Macquarie University. The theme is:
\nThe Agents of Evolution
\nOne of the greatest achievements of Darwinian theory was to show how the appearance of design in nature can be explained without invoking agency. In particular\, by grounding adaptation in variation\, differential reproduction\, and heredity\, Darwinian explanations replace intention with a process that is blind to ends. Yet it would be a mistake to conclude that evolutionary theory thereby eliminates agency from its conceptual repertoire altogether. Even when organisms are not treated as literal agents\, evolutionary reasoning continues to rely on notions that are naturally read in agential or quasi-agential terms: we speak of strategies\, signals\, conflicts\, cooperation\, and\, more abstractly\, of entities occupying functional and causal roles within evolutionary explanations. In this summer school\, we will examine when\, why\, and in what sense agency re-enters evolutionary theorizing\, including the explanatory payoffs and risks of agential language in evolution.
\nIn addition to traditional lectures\, this summer school will involve diverse activities\, including but not limited to interviews with invited scholars\, academic development panels\, brainstorming sessions (e.g.\, for identifying PhD thesis topics)\, group presentations\, organized dinners\, and (fun!) excursions. Students will have the opportunity to interact with and learn from world-famous philosophers in person\, as well as to communicate and cooperate with their peers in depth. Following the summer school\, Macquarie University will host an international workshop on the same theme from August 24&ndash\;25\, which students are warmly encouraged to attend.
\nRegistration
\nRegistration is required for all students who want to participate in the summer school. However\, registration does not guarantee enrollment in this summer school. Due to limited capacity\, we will select participants based on their registration information. The summer school will be free to attend. A participation fee of A$800 or less (to be determined closer to the date) will be requested from the students to partially cover accommodation costs. Other expenses will be the responsibility of the participants and their institutions.
\nStudents from Fudan University and Peking University who are selected as participants in the summer school can obtain a certain amount of travel support from the School of Philosophy at Fudan University and the Department of Philosophy at Peking University\, respectively. Students from Fudan University should contact mingjunzhang@fudan.edu.cn.

\nTwentieth-century musicology has revealed the complexity of the musical beyond the limits of the work\, elaborating within the field of semiology the notion of a \;&ldquo\;musical fact&rdquo\; \;&mdash\; a concept that includes\, within the musicologist&rsquo\;s perspective\, not only &ldquo\;texts&rdquo\; and their grammars but also the contextual phenomena that make those texts the nodes of a complex anthropological\, social\, and epistemological network.
There have also been attempts to apply to more complex musical systems the conceptual structure of so-called scientific paradigms &mdash\; notably in the case of the &ldquo\;Stockhausen paradigm&rdquo\; described by Alcedo Coenen in the 1990s\, following the analogous concept discussed earlier by Thomas Kuhn. This structure is articulated in terms of values\, models\, generalizations\, and exemplars. It is precisely the \;values \;of the paradigm&mdash\;explicit and implicit\, encapsulated in a culture&rsquo\;s responses to fundamental questions such as: what is music\, who produces it\, for whom\, where\, when\, to what purpose\, and with what motivations and instruments&mdash\;that form the focus of our inquiry.
Among the countless consequences of musical experimentalism (especially of Cagean origin)\, the impact of technology on the anthropological profile of the musician (in the broadest sense of the term)\, and the rise of ethical claims within digital culture (free software\, hacking)\, we find\, at the end of the twentieth century\, practices that profoundly alter the value systems of the musical paradigm. The new culture of digital lutherie\, institutionalized at the beginning of the twenty-first century in the NIME conferences\, for example\, raises questions about a possible inversion of the traditional means&ndash\;ends relation between instruments and the music produced through them. Similarly\, the expansion of the musical into the territories of (variously defined) \;sound art \;seems to dismantle the traditional boundaries of the temporally dominant musical work\, replacing them with spatially oriented forms that allow the listener to dynamically reconfigure their temporal boundaries.
\nLive coding and the Toplap Manifesto&rsquo\;s injunction to &ldquo\;show your screens\,&rdquo\; Pietro Grossi&rsquo\;s playful\, private practice of algorithmic composition\, or the music created for video games&mdash\;where continuously generative and variable forms blur the distinction between performer and listener&mdash\;are further examples of this paradigm transformation. Finally\, many improvisational or aleatory practices seem to replace the consolidated communicative schema of the concert (sender\, code\, message\, medium\, receiver) with entirely different anthropological archetypes such as play\, travel\, conviviality\, ritual\, or political utopia\, while in many contexts music tends to become more a matter of \;events \;than of \;messages.
\nAll the examples gathered here share some form of infraction against the values of the paradigm but by no means exhaust the wide landscape of &ldquo\;niches and microworlds&rdquo\; (to borrow Massimo De Carolis&rsquo\;s term) through which the modes of musical production and reception\, in the post-digital era\, seem to fragment and disperse into innumerable streams.
\nRelevant areas for contributions&mdash\;which may take the form of theoretical reflections\, documentation of experiences\, or critical and technical inquiries\, always from the perspective of some alteration\, manipulation\, or rewriting of the values of the musical paradigm as described above&mdash\;include but are not limited to:

\nAbstract: \;Among political philosophers\, Kant is known for a social contract theory that features the imperative to submit to the rule of law\, administered by a state. The pure statist reading of Kant&rsquo\;s political philosophy emerges naturally from the following two ideas: first\, for Kant the only innate right is to freedom from determination by another&rsquo\;s will\; and\, second\, as dwellers on the surface of a watery globe\, we cannot avoid affecting one another (for example\, when we claim some property as our own\, we are expecting everyone else to respect that). From these two ideas it follows that the only way to avoid wronging each other all the time--by imposing unilateral determinations on them--would be for everyone to submit to what Kant calls omnilateral determination in the civil condition\, that is\, to the rule of law. However\, despite its clear attractions\, the exclusively statist reading encounters difficulties both within Kant&rsquo\;s corpus and outside it. As early as 1784\, Kant worried about the injustice of efforts to constrain the choices of future people\; by 1797\, his worries have multiplied\, including problems of colonial injustice\, the shortcomings of global concentration of power\, and relations among pastoralists and more settled peoples. Following recent promising trends in the interpretation of the \;Metaphysics of Morals\, I read Kant&rsquo\;s mature cosmopolitanism as demanding accountability among people whose actions affect each other\, even when they cannot share a civil condition (and\, especially\, across generations). Humanity under Anthropocene conditions constrains the freedom of future generations in much the same way that the would-be intergenerationally tyrannical church synod criticised by Kant in 1784 sought to constrain the freedom of future generations to inquire into the truth of their religious commitments. Early social contract theory aimed to resolve problems of coordination and legitimacy for humans whose decisions were much less broadly consequential than our decisions today. I argue that Kant&rsquo\;s mature cosmopolitan social contract theory suits our Anthropocene circumstances\, clarifying our obligations to one another while offering orientation for individuals and groups seeking principled courses of action as members of a species which has (among other things) already permanently altered the geological record.

\nSpecial Issue of Aná\;lisis Filosó\;fico: &ldquo\;Oppressive Argumentation: Silencing and Oppressive Speech in Argumentation&rdquo\;
\nThis special issue aims to collect original articles in Spanish and English devoted to the analysis of oppressive discourses within our argumentative practices\, with a particular emphasis on those commonly found in Latin American contexts. Informal logic\, epistemology\, and gender studies will serve as the central&mdash\;though not exclusive&mdash\;perspectives guiding this special issue.
\nWe may understand &ldquo\;oppressive discourse&rdquo\; as a speech act that harms a person or group\, whose consequences contribute to the perpetuation of their conditions of subordination. One way in which oppression manifests itself is by depriving such individuals or groups of credibility (and\, consequently\, of epistemic authority)\, thereby reproducing discriminatory forms of subordination. This (epistemic) form of oppression typically accounts for the silencing of certain marginalized groups. This special issue will place particular emphasis on analyzing these forms of oppression\, as well as the discursive and argumentative mechanisms that sustain them.
\nLanguage is a powerful force\, deeply intertwined with social practices and ways of life: harmful stereotypes about individuals or groups are forged and reinforced through discursive activities. Thus\, in order to prevent epistemic injustices\, it is necessary to intervene in the discursive domain of power by critically reflecting on its influence on credibility\, epistemic authority\, and the prejudices associated with epistemic agents\, as well as on the fallacies and argumentative errors committed by those who produce oppressive discourses. Informal logic\, epistemology\, and gender studies have much to contribute to this area\, and this issue seeks to highlight contributions from these philosophical fields by examining recurring forms of discussion and argumentation in cases and examples drawn from everyday life. As a final outcome\, this collection aims to show how philosophical argumentation can both help mitigate situations of epistemic injustice and contribute to identifying and dismantling harmful prejudices that promote discrimination.
\nSubmissions are invited on topics including\, but not limited to:
\n● \; \; \; \; \; Discursive silencing and epistemic exclusion in argumentative contexts
\n● \; \; \; \; \; Epistemic injustice in practices of debate and deliberation
\n● \; \; \; \; \; Epistemic authority in argumentation
\n● \; \; \; \; \; Fallacies and argumentative errors in oppressive discourses
\n● \; \; \; \; \; Relations between social power\, language\, and argumentation
\n● \; \; \; \; \; Philosophical analysis of oppressive speech in Latin American contexts
\nSubmissions must be made through the Aná\;lisis Filosó\;fico website (https://analisisfilosofico.org/index.php/af/about/submissions)\, following the author guidelines (https://analisisfilosofico.org/index.php/af/guia-autores). When submitting the manuscript\, authors should include a note in the &ldquo\;Comments for the Editor&rdquo\; field indicating that the submission is intended for this special issue. All submissions will undergo double-blind peer review by external referees. The deadline for submissions is October 31\, 2026. For inquiries\, please contact:pyrosuarezcaro@gmail.com.
\nThe guest editorial team is composed of Pyro Suarez (lead editor)\, Pamela Lastres (editorial supervisor)\, and Luz Muñ\;oz (editorial assistant)\, all members of the research project &ldquo\;Silencing and Discourses of Oppression in Peru: Intersections between Informal Logic\, Epistemology\, and Gender Studies&rdquo\; at the Pontifical Catholic University of Peru.

\nConvenor: Dr. Maximillian Afnan\, London School of Economics and Political Science
\nThe political optimism of the post-Cold War period was accompanied by sustained scholarly attention to questions of global justice and democratic global governance (Caney\, 2005\; Held\, 1995\; Archibugi\, 2008). Yet the past decade and a half has seen a 'globalisation backlash' that has called into question the feasibility and\, for some\, the desirability of cosmopolitan aspirations\, and of the strong global institutions sometimes associated with them (Walter\, 2021). Alongside these political developments\, growing scholarly interest in the subaltern has prompted accusations that cosmopolitan and global democratic thought\, particularly where it emerges from the liberal tradition\, is guilty of a 'false universalism' that masks parochial moral views (Chakrabarty\, 2000).
\nThese developments raise numerous questions for cosmopolitanism and global democracy alike\, which share a common concern with extending moral and political principles beyond the state\, and face parallel challenges regarding feasibility\, legitimacy\, and the accommodation of diversity. Is democratic global governance compatible with cultural and national diversity? Is it possible to construct a truly inclusive cosmopolitan theory\, or is the tradition irredeemably particular? What institutional forms might a legitimate global order take? And what methodological approaches are best suited to theorising such questions?
\nRecent scholarship has sought to address these challenges from a variety of angles. Some scholars have engaged with non-Western philosophical traditions\, or the methods of comparative political theory\, to diffuse charges of Western-centrism (Graness\, 2018\; Xu\, 2018\; Shapcott\, 2020). Others have turned to 'grounded normative theory'\, using empirical research into lived experience to inform normative theory (Cabrera\, 2020). Scholars have also examined the relationship between cosmopolitan commitments and pluralist visions of global political order (Ulaş\, 2025). A further strand of literature has brought insights from empirical political science into conversation with normative political theory\, testing assumptions about the feasibility of global democratic institutions (Koenig-Archibugi\, 2024\; Agné\;\, 2022). Meanwhile\, scholars continue to debate the relative merits of polycentric approaches to global governance against proposals for more centralised supranational authority (Smith\, 2018\; Scholte\, 2014).
\nThis panel invites papers that engage with these debates. It welcomes contributions focused on cosmopolitanism\, on global democracy\, or on both\, including (but not limited to) their relationship to questions of diversity. It aims to bring together scholars working across different theoretical traditions and methodological approaches to reflect on substantive questions of global political order\, and the methods by which such questions are best addressed.
\nPapers are welcome on topics including\, but not limited to:
\nThe workshop will take place as part of the MANCEPT Workshops in Political Theory at the University of Manchester (September 2-4\, 2026). Bursaries are available to help cover the conference registration fee\, and participants are encouraged to apply if needed.
\n\nTo submit a paper\, please send an anonymised abstract of no more than \;500 words\, suitable for a 30 minute presentation (followed by 30 minutes of Q&\;A)\, to Maximillian Afnan at \;m.a.afnan@lse.ac.uk\, by \;Monday 11 May. Successful applicants will be notified shortly afterwards. \;

\n\nTitle: \; \;Alien Proofs
\n\n\;Abstract: \;
\nIt is now possible to write verifiably-correct proofs of sophisticated mathematical theorems in computer programming languages such as Lean. Coupled with recent developments in Generative Artificial Intelligence\, this means we are now able to explore\, for the first time\, the space of mathematical proofs in ways that go beyond human intuition\, capacity\, and patience\, and to answer\, in new ways and through empirical study\, questions that were previously the realm of science fiction and philosophical speculation: how do humans carve the space of mathematics? What regions do we leave unexplored and what lies beyond our ken? How do our cognitive limitations constrain us or\, conversely\, lead us to explanatory and fertile ground? I will present the first results from the Proofs and Reasons Project\, a multidisciplinary collaboration between philosophers\, cognitive scientists\, mathematicians\, and computer scientists. I will present the first statistical studies of artificially-generated proofs\, constructed with\, and without\, human guidance\; our first results on so-called "ablation" studies that demonstrate the existence of what we refer to as generative constraints\; and the first results that probe the often misaligned preferences of humans and machines in cyborg proofs. These results challenge basic orthodoxies in the philosophy of mathematics\, and provide new problems for philosophers of science\, mathematics\, and AI.

\nDear Colleagues\,
\nFrom April 23 to April 25\, 2026\, the XI Moscow international conference (workshop) «\;Transcendental Turn in Contemporary Philosophy &ndash\; 11: the "Problem of Method" and the Specificity of the Transcendental Research (Philosophy)\, Transcendentalism and Epistemology Cognitive Science\, Artificial Intelligence»\; will be held.
\n\;Faculty of Philosophy of the SAUH\, Faculty of Philosophy of the RSUH\, Faculty of philosophy of the RUDN university\, Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University\, SCMAI RAS and Foundation for the Humanities invite you to participate in the XI Moscow&rsquo\;s International Transcendental Workshop.
\n\;The workshop&ndash\;2026 continues the series of thematic workshops &ldquo\;Transcendental Turn in Contemporary Philosophy&rdquo\; which were held in April 2016 (proceedings: https://elibrary.ru/item.asp?id=29024766)\, April 2017 (proceedings: https://elibrary.ru/item.asp?id=30560011)\, April 2018 (abstracts: https://elibrary.ru/item.asp?id=35240888)\, April 2019 (abstracts: https://elibrary.ru/item.asp?id=39452678\, proceedings: https://elibrary.ru/item.asp?id=41494716)\, April/October 2020 (abstracts: https://elibrary.ru/item.asp? id=44404439)\, April 2021 (abstracts: https://www.elibrary.ru/item.asp?id=47196636\; proceedings: https://www.elibrary.ru/item.asp?id=48458596)\; April 2022 (abstracts: https://www.elibrary.ru/item.asp?id=49505613\; proceedings: https://www.academia.edu/93905826/)\; April 2023 (abstracts: https://elibrary.ru/item.asp?id=65509620\; proceedings: https://www.academia.edu/110312071/)\; April 2024 (proceedings: https://www.academia.edu/117335170/)\; April 2025 (proceedings: https://www.academia.edu/128980080/)
\nProblematics / scope of the conference. In his definition of transcendental philosophy Kant postulates a shift (turn) from studying of objects to studying of [aprioristic] mode of cognition [CPR\, B25]. On the one hand\, such transcendental turn defines &ldquo\;the altered method of our thinking&rdquo\; [CPR\, BVXIII] and leads to the &ldquo\;Copernican revolution&rdquo\; in metaphysics\; on the other hand\, the transcendental shift to studying of &ldquo\;mode of our cognition&rdquo\; predetermines the influence of a transcendentalism on contemporary development of epistemology\, cognitive sciences and artificial intelligence.
\nThe goal of the workshops is to discuss the transcendental turn in modern philosophy and its development in three main transcendental traditions: Kantian Transcendentalism\, neo-Kantianism\, Phenomenology.
\nTime: April 23 &ndash\; 25\, 2026
\n\;
\nVenue: Russian Federation\, Moscow: SAUH\, RSUH\, RUDN\, Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University

\n\;Faculty of Philosophy of the SAUH\, Faculty of Philosophy of the RSUH\, Faculty of philosophy of the RUDN university\, Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University\, SCMAI RAS and Foundation for the Humanities invite you to participate in the XI Moscow&rsquo\;s International Transcendental Workshop.
\n\;The workshop&ndash\;2026 continues the series of thematic workshops &ldquo\;Transcendental Turn in Contemporary Philosophy&rdquo\; which were held in April 2016 (proceedings: https://elibrary.ru/item.asp?id=29024766)\, April 2017 (proceedings: https://elibrary.ru/item.asp?id=30560011)\, April 2018 (abstracts: https://elibrary.ru/item.asp?id=35240888)\, April 2019 (abstracts: https://elibrary.ru/item.asp?id=39452678\, proceedings: https://elibrary.ru/item.asp?id=41494716)\, April/October 2020 (abstracts: https://elibrary.ru/item.asp? id=44404439)\, April 2021 (abstracts: https://www.elibrary.ru/item.asp?id=47196636\; proceedings: https://www.elibrary.ru/item.asp?id=48458596)\; April 2022 (abstracts: https://www.elibrary.ru/item.asp?id=49505613\; proceedings: https://www.academia.edu/93905826/)\; April 2023 (abstracts: https://elibrary.ru/item.asp?id=65509620\; proceedings: https://www.academia.edu/110312071/)\; April 2024 (proceedings: https://www.academia.edu/117335170/)\; April 2025 (proceedings: https://www.academia.edu/128980080/)
\nProblematics / scope of the conference. In his definition of transcendental philosophy Kant postulates a shift (turn) from studying of objects to studying of [aprioristic] mode of cognition [CPR\, B25]. On the one hand\, such transcendental turn defines &ldquo\;the altered method of our thinking&rdquo\; [CPR\, BVXIII] and leads to the &ldquo\;Copernican revolution&rdquo\; in metaphysics\; on the other hand\, the transcendental shift to studying of &ldquo\;mode of our cognition&rdquo\; predetermines the influence of a transcendentalism on contemporary development of epistemology\, cognitive sciences and artificial intelligence.
\nThe goal of the workshops is to discuss the transcendental turn in modern philosophy and its development in three main transcendental traditions: Kantian Transcendentalism\, neo-Kantianism\, Phenomenology.
\nTime: April 23 &ndash\; 25\, 2026
\nVenue: Russian Federation\, Moscow: SAUH\, RSUH\, RUDN\, Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University

Abstract
In his famous paper (1970)\, Lakatos described the methodology of scienti c rese-
arch programmes (MSRP\, henceforth) as a rationalization of conventionalism.
What he had in mind was that MSRP removes the conventionalist residues from
Popperian falsi cationism while retaining its general spirit. First\, Lakatos&rsquo\;s MSRP
and Ajdukiewicz&rsquo\;s concept of a conceptual apparatus will be sketched. Next\, it will
be argued that Ajdukiewicz\, as early as 1934\, although he adopted the label of radi-
cal conventionalism for his standpoint\, in many ways anticipated Lakatos&rsquo\;s strategy
for combating the core of conventionalism. Admittedly\, the two philosophers put
forward their proposals in di erent contexts of philosophical debate&mdash\;the former
aiming to generalize French conventionalism\, the latter attempting to re ne
Popper&rsquo\;s falsi cationism. Still\, on a liberal reading of Ajdukiewicz&rsquo\;s concept of
a conceptual apparatus\, its constitutive meaning-rules can be interpreted as de -
nitional elements of Lakatos&rsquo\;s hard core of a scienti c research programme\, while
the evolutionary tendencies of conceptual apparatuses seem to play the role
Lakatos assigned to the criteria for classifying a programme as progressive.

Thursday\, the 16th of April 2026\, 17.00\, Central European Time
Louis Rouillé\; \;
(LanCog\, University of Lisbon)
will deliver a talk:
Kripke's Legacy on Fictional Names
Abstract:
Kripke&rsquo\;s John Locke lectures are a seminal contribution to the
semantics of fictional names and to the metaphysics of fictional characters. In
this paper\, I extensively analyse Kripke&rsquo\;s original proposal\, in light of recent
developments in the research program that he got up and going. First\, I show how
he reshaped the logical space of the semantics of names by defending the view
that the distinction between real and fictional names and the distinction
between full and empty names should be construed as orthogonal distinctions.
Second\, I analyse his brand of artefactualism\, which I call &ldquo\;dynamic&rdquo\;\, as
articulating the metaphysical view of fictional characters as parts of fictional
works\, with a semantic constraint that fictional characters act as truth-makers
for metafictional discourse. This articulation distinguishes it from &ldquo\;static&rdquo\;
artefactualism\, which shares a similar metaphysical outlook without abiding by
the semantic constraint. I end up by displaying some internal tensions and
inconsistencies within Kripke&rsquo\;s program\, thus qualifying the often proclaimed
success of dynamic artefactualism. I conclude with some speculations on the
relationship between semantics and ontology\, from the vantage point of the
philosophy of fiction.
About the speaker: \;
Louis Rouillé\; is a philosopher whose work focuses on the philosophy of fiction\, with particular interests in fictional names\, imagination\, aesthetics\, logic\, and metaphysical questions about fictional characters. He is the aithor of several papers published in (among other things) in Ethics and Information Technology\, Topoi\, Grazer Philosophische Studien\, Synthesis\, Ogranon F\, and Argumenta. \;

This workshop will focus on questions of justice raised by efforts to litigate the climate crisis. \;
\nAs climate change progresses\, individuals and groups are increasingly turning to the courts in pursuit of climate justice. As of March 31\, 2026\, the Climate Litigation Database maintained by the Sabin Center for Climate Change Law lists over 4800 climate court cases\, nearly 70% of which were filed in the USA. Climate lawsuits have been used to pursue a variety of goals\, including injunctions on fossil fuel extraction\, stronger regulation of greenhouse gas emissions\, the implementation or funding of adaptation measures\, compensation for climate loss and damage\, and even punishment of those who contribute to severe climate-related harm. Climate litigation may also be undertaken for strategic reasons\, in an effort to promote awareness of the climate crisis\, undermine the social license of those contributing to it\, and spur more systemic change.
\nThough climate litigation is often used in an attempt to pursue goals of climate justice\, its use for this purpose raises various normative questions. These include questions about the legitimate role of the courts in climate governance\, and the potential for litigation to reproduce patterns of disadvantage due to the unequal accessibility of legal remedies. Some have also raised concerns that climate litigation could prove strategically counterproductive\, for example by spurring political backlash. \;
\nThis workshop will examine how litigation might be used as a tool in the pursuit of climate justice\, new concerns of justice that are raised by such efforts\, and how such concerns might be addressed.
\nQuestions that papers may examine include:
\nHow might litigation serve to promote or undermine climate justice?
\nWhat role should courts play in climate governance?
\nWhen should judicial interventions into climate policy be viewed as legitimate or illegitimate?
\nHow might climate litigation provide access to justice without reproducing existing inequalities?
\nWhat kinds of legal innovation or evolution might be required for the law to adequately respond to the challenge of climate change?
\nWhat are the ethical responsibilities of legal practitioners regarding climate litigation?
\nWhat is the proper role of scientists\, and scientific research\, in supporting climate litigation?
\nWhat role might philosophers and political theorists play in supporting climate litigation?

\n'Gender and Nation' Special Issue of \;Hypatia \;(43.3)\, Summer 2028
\nAcross the globe\, nationalist projects are being renewed and intensified\, mobilizing &ldquo\;gender&rdquo\; as a central site of social and political struggle. From anti-gender movements and border regimes to racialized citizenship policies and digital surveillance\, contemporary nationalisms draw on gender and related intersectional structures to organize political belonging\, govern populations\, and delineate whose lives are recognized as part of &ldquo\;the nation.&rdquo\; These developments lend a particular urgency to examining the philosophical stakes of the relationship between &ldquo\;gender&rdquo\; and &ldquo\;nation&rdquo\; today.
\nThis special issue of \;Hypatia: A Journal of Feminist Philosophy \;invites philosophical engagements of the topic of &ldquo\;Gender and Nation.&rdquo\; We seek contributions that interrogate how nations are imagined\, experienced\, constituted\, and governed through gendered logics that shape various forms of exclusion\, political subjectivity\, citizenship\, and national belonging. While broadly soliciting contributions that (re)consider &ldquo\;the nation&rdquo\; alongside &ldquo\;gender\,&rdquo\; we also wish to mark the 30th \;anniversary of Nira Yuval-Davis&rsquo\; influential book\, \;Gender and Nation. \;Yuval-Davis&rsquo\; work has been foundational for studies on gender and nationalisms\, and has inspired countless feminist analyses of the idea and lived experience of &ldquo\;the nation.&rdquo\; In the 30 years since the book&rsquo\;s publication\, the world has changed in unimaginable ways\, with the last decade\, in particular\, witnessing a resurgence in nationalist fervour that forms part of a global shift to the right. An assessment of and reengagement with &ldquo\;gender and nation&rdquo\; is therefore not only apt\, but arguably more pressing than ever\, given that such nationalist resurgence has deployed gendered dynamics that are deeply troubling from a feminist perspective.
\nQuestioning whether the idea and attendant realisation of &ldquo\;the nation&rdquo\; can ever be straightforwardly adopted by feminists\, this special issue also provides an opportunity to highlight past and present feminist resistance to misogyny and sexist policymaking underlying patriarchal nation-building projects. Indeed\, there are numerous examples of feminist activism and scholarship challenging nationalism\, but also reconfiguring and claiming &ldquo\;the nation&rdquo\; and &ldquo\;nationalism&rdquo\; in progressive terms. Building on the by now large and influential feminist literature on nationalisms\, of which \;Gender and Nation \;is a stalwart\, we invite contributors to take stock of work on &ldquo\;the nation&rdquo\;\, and to present new and promising ways of thinking about the theme of \;gender and nation. To this end\, articles might address\, without being limited to\, the following questions:
\nContributors working in and across various relevant disciplines (e.g. philosophy\, gender studies\, sociology\, literature\, politics\, and disability studies) are invited to address these questions philosophically\, and to do so drawing on a range of theoretical frameworks (such as critical race theory\, crip theory\, queer theory\, and postcolonial theory). We welcome contributions from diverse social\, cultural\, and geographical contexts\, including those approaching &ldquo\;gender and nation&rdquo\; through decolonial\, Indigenous\, queer of colour\, trans\, and Black feminist frameworks.
\nSubmissions must be written in English and prepared for anonymous review. We will accept both traditional article submissions (up to 10\,000 words long\, excluding footnotes and references) and musings (4\,000 words including footnotes\, but not references). Musings are not merely short research articles\; they are often more personal and/or more concerned with current issues than full-fledged academic articles\, and they are typically less rooted in particular bodies of literature. However they are approached\, Musings should seek to catalyse philosophical reflection on important issues in feminist philosophy. (For examples\, please see the recently published Musings on our \;FirstView \;pages.) We encourage submissions to be written in a style accessible across relevant disciplines\, and with an eye to understanding concrete social and political phenomena. \;
\nDeadline for submission: \;9th \;April 2027
\nPlease submit your original manuscript electronically through the Cambridge University Press online submission and review system \;ScholarOne. Manuscripts need to be prepared for anonymous review. More information may be found in the \;Manuscript Preparations Guidelines.
