Slurring Terms Across Languages (STAL) is an international and interdisciplinary network whose primary aim is to promote work on slurs\, pejoratives\, expressives and evaluative terms in general\, from languages that have been seldom discussed in the recent philosophical and semantic literature\, and in particular\, from sign languages and non-Indo-European languages. Its main aim is to bring to light new empirical data and uncover novel interesting phenomena that may have the potential to challenge current theories. Empirical studies of the expressions mentioned from such languages\, comparisons with English slurs\, as well as wider cross-linguistic approaches and developments of extant theories in application to the new data or previously neglected phenomena are encouraged too.
\nThe network's coordinators are \;Isidora Stojanovic \;(Pompeu Fabra University/CNRS-Institut Jean Nicod) &\; \;Dan Zeman \;(University of Porto). More information about the network and its activities can be found at \;https://sites.google.com/view/stalnetwork. To contact the network coordinators\, please write to stalnetwork@gmail.com.
\nThe STAL Seminar features monthly\, online talks by researchers tackling issues \;related to the study of slurs\, pejoratives\, expressives and evaluative terms in general\, from less studied languages. The meetings in the 2025-2026 academic year take place on MONDAYS\, 14:30-16:00 Central European Time (CET). The list of speakers is the following (exact dates to be provided soon):
\n- OCTOBER 2025: Luvell Anderson (University of Illinois\, Urbana-Champaign)

\nIn-person: Faculty of Letters\, University of Porto\, Via Panorâ\;mica s/n
\nOnline: Zoom
\nThis is a biweekly seminar pertaining to the project Slurs and the Lexicon: A Rich-Lexicon Approach to Slurs and Other Evaluative Expressions - LEXISLUR (2023.05952.CEECIND\; PI: Dan Zeman). The main aim of the project is to offer a polysemy account fit for evaluative expressions and to assess to what extent a unified approach to the entire evaluative sphere is feasible. Much work on polysemy can be found in lexical semantics - the branch of semantics that studies the meaning of words\, their internal structure and interrelations\, etc. However\, while the debate about polysemy of various expressions has produced an impressive amount of work\, not much material on the polysemy of evaluative expressions exists in that area. The purpose of this seminar is twofold: first\, to get acquainted with the essential literature on polysemy (via in-person sessions dedicated to reading and discussing the relevant papers)\; second\, to feature current work on polysemy as applied to evaluative expressions (via online talks by invited speakers). In this way\, participants will both acquire knowledge about polysemy in general and see how the discussions in lexical semantics can be applied to the evaluative sphere.

Workshop description: \;Whether games qualify as artworks remains a matter of debate. It is\, however\, uncontroversial that games can possess aesthetic value and exhibit aesthetic properties. But what is distinctive about the aesthetic appeal of games\, and how should we theorize it?
Several influential answers have been proposed. Some argue that the distinctive aesthetics of games lies in their interactivity (Tavinor 2009\; Lopes 2010) or in the sculpted agencies they afford (Nguyen 2020). Christopher Bartel has recently argued that the aesthetics of videogames depends not only on their formal features\, but also on players&rsquo\; attitudes\, distinguishing several aesthetically relevant modes of play (goal-seeking\, narrative\, or &ldquo\;dollhouse&rdquo\; play). Frank Lantz (2024)\, by contrast\, maintains that games exhibit a sui generis form of beauty grounded in their systemic features. It remains an open question how these approaches can be reconciled\, and \;where they fundamentally diverge.
This workshop aims to engage with these debates and to explore the aesthetics of games more broadly. Bringing together philosophers of art and game scholars\, the workshop will examine how games challenge inherited categories of aesthetic theory\, and how aesthetic theory can\, in turn\, illuminate the nature of game-playing.
We welcome contributions addressing the intersection of aesthetics and game studies. \;Possible topics include (but are not limited to):

We are pleased to announce the workshop On Getting It Right\, taking place at the Department of Philosophy at Lund University on June 12th - 13th\, 2026. The theme of the conference has its origin in a dispute where Bernard Williams accuses Richard Rorty of failing to respect that\, in philosophy\, there must be something that counts as getting it right. The central question of the workshop is: what does it mean to get it right in philosophy? Or\, more specifically\, what can count as getting it right if we take worries about anti-foundationalism and the contingency of our concepts seriously? Of course\, these worries might turn out to be misguided or not provide any obstacle to making sense of what it is to get things right.

The workshop aims to shed light on these questions by bringing together a variety of perspectives\, such as pragmatism\, conceptual ethics\, and a broadly post-Wittgensteinian tradition\, as well as views more critical to the underlying assumption that our concepts are sufficiently contingent for there to be any serious worry about what it can mean to get it right.

This five-day conference will take place on the idyllic Liberal Arts campus of St. Olaf College in Northfield\, Minnesota. Traditionally an occasion for members of the global Kierkegaard community to gather and engage in intellectual conversation\, the first conference launched nearly forty years ago in 1985\, with the topic &ldquo\;Kierkegaard and Contemporary Philosophy.&rdquo\; Today\, we would like to celebrate the special occasion of its tenth installment\, as well as the 50th anniversary of the Howard and Edna Hong Kierkegaard Library (founded in 1976)\, with the topic &ldquo\;Readings of Kierkegaard.&rdquo\;
\nReading Kierkegaard is what Kierkegaard scholars do\, which for good reason may often be a solitary venture. However\, when we come together in community to present\, read\, and further research in our fields\, we encounter traditions for reading Kierkegaard along certain lines of interpretation\, influenced by particular historical trends\, and in dialogue with adjacent and interdisciplinary fields of study. Kierkegaard has been read as Bildungsroman literature\, as existential-psychological study\, as moral philosophy\, as devotional literature\, as hermeneutics\, and as religious philosophy\, among others. Strategies have been applied to contextualize and open up his works\, including negative dialectics\, the double movement\, indirect communication\, stages or spheres\, a theory of categories\, and more.
\nWe call for papers that reflect critically on ways of reading Kierkegaard. We invite you to explore and analyze traditional readings\, as well as to offer fresh perspectives. We welcome contributions that take a historical perspective\, engage in close readings of the works\, and bring Kierkegaard into dialogue with pressing issues of our times&mdash\;or any of the above. \;
\nPaper presentations will be 20 minutes followed by 10 minute Q&\;A.
\nIf you would like to present a paper at the 10th International Kierkegaard Conference\, please submit a proposal\, consisting of a title and abstract (maximum 300 words)\, by September 15\, 2025 via email to hkl@stolaf.edu (please include &ldquo\;10th International Kierkegaard Conference&rdquo\; in the subject line).

\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

\n17 June 2026\, University College Dublin
\nD520\, UCD Newman Building\, Department of Philosophy
\nThe climate crisis is worsening before our eyes. After another year of record heat\, climate scientist recently warned that the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) faces much more significant risk of collapse than previously thought due to global warming. One of the major global tipping points\, the collapse of the stream not only risks turning the Atlantic from a carbon sink into a source of further carbon emissions\, but also likely means civilisational devastation for most of Europe and North Africa. \;
\nAt the same time\, the climate and environmental crisis has moved to the background of global attention\, and the global climate movement has not managed to maintain or restore the global attention needed to pressure governments and corporation for change. Many within the climate movement feel overwhelmed with emotional exhaustion and tactical disorientation\, and the need to figure out what is to be done next.
\nIn this moment\, philosophy can play a critical role in examining the emotional life of activists within the struggle against climate and environmental breakdown\, what role emotions play within a global social movement\, and how emotions inform\, shape and motivate the activism pushing for change. This workshop examines climate emotions specifically in their role for climate and environmental action\, and invites everyone interested in the philosophy of the climate crisis to attend.

\nThe Physical World and Its Perception:
Phenomenology and Analytic Philosophy
Humboldt-Universitä\;t zu Berlin\, 18-19 June 2026
\nThe aim of this conference is to explore the nature of physical reality\, the way the various macro- and microscopic layers of physical reality are constituted and structured\, and to what extent perception provides faithful access to the physical world. Topics to be addressed include metaphysical issues about the mind-(in)dependent existence of sensory qualities\, the distinction between primary and secondary qualities (and possible differences in their perception)\, the relations of foundation between sensory qualities and subperceptual aspects of physical reality\, the reliability of sensory contents for our cognition of the physical world\, and\, more generally\, naive realism and competing metaphysical accounts of physical reality. The guiding idea is that a dialogue between phenomenology and analytic philosophy on these questions will be fruitful and mutually enriching\, as there are important points of contact between these two traditions\, in particular regarding the description and vindication of our ordinary experience of the physical world.

While trust is commonly regarded as a form of social glue that enables cooperation and collective action\, distrust is often framed as a disruptive force that undermines coordination and social cohesion. \;The workshop \;Normativities of Distrust \;brings together scholars working on (dis)trust to examine the conceptual\, normative\, social\, epistemic\, political\, and affective dimensions of distrust. Rather than approaching distrust merely as a deficit or pathology\, the workshop explores its ambivalences and normative complexities.

Fellows will be academically-trained philosophers of all career stages who aim to write\, speak to\, and produce media for the general public in the form of essays (long- and short-form)\, trade-book writing\, or podcasting.
\nFellows will be accepted from all areas of philosophy\, but should indicate both their professional areas of specialization and competence\, as well as the topics or areas they would like to talk about when they speak to the public. Special consideration will be given to applicants whose professional or public-facing work focuses on race and racism\, social justice\, applied ethics of biology\, technology\, or other special sciences\, and to applicants who are affiliated with HBCUs\, Hispanic-serving institutions\, Tribal colleges/universities\, or underserved/under-resourced smaller regional or state schools.
\nSuccessful fellows will receive a $1500 stipend and full room and board at one of our three media workshops\, to be held between June 22 &ndash\; June 30\, 2026. Workshops will be held in Tarrytown\, NY\, just north of New York City. One workshop will focus on essay writing (short- and long-form)\, one on trade books and publication\, and one on podcast production and distribution. All will be led by esteemed media editors\, producers\, publishers\, and agents.

\n\;
\nQueen&rsquo\;s University Belfast (ONLINE)
\n\nAre you thinking of introducing oral exams into your philosophy assessment? Have you already successfully introduced them? Would you like to do so but are wondering about the logistics? Are you worried about how the students would respond? If the answer is &ldquo\;yes&rdquo\; to any of these\, the QUB Philosophy Oral Exam webinar is the event for you!
\n\nThe philosophy department at Queen&rsquo\;s Belfast have recently introduced oral exams in multiple modules across both undergraduate and postgraduate levels. This has initially been motivated by AI-proofing our assessment methods\, but was found to have lots of other much more significant benefits\, such as developing students&rsquo\; transferrable skills (e.g.\, job interviews)\, offering a higher variety of assessment methods\, and a quicker turnaround for marking. Based on the surveys we&rsquo\;ve conducted\, the response from students has been really positive too.
\n\nWhile these exams are pretty standard outside the Anglosphere\, they seem to be still relatively novel in English-speaking philosophy departments. Quite a few fellow colleagues from other universities have been asking us how it all worked. Others have had useful tips from their own experience of introducing oral assessments. So we thought it would be useful to organise a quick webinar to create a space where best-practice tips can be shared.
\n\nThe (informal) webinar will take place online on \;23 June 2026 at 13:00 UK time \;and will last approximately an hour. It will include:
\n\n1) \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \;A quick presentation on the implementation of the oral exam process at QUB
\n2) \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \;Testimonials from our own students
\n3) \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \;Q&\;A + discussion about other people&rsquo\;s experiences of oral exams

(https://www.gu.se/en/research/free-will-foundations-metaethical-and-methodological-underpinnings-of-free-will-theories)
\nA free will \;theory is revisionist if it involves rejecting and/or changing what one takes to be (problematic) commitments built into relevant concepts or common-sense assumptions. Revisionist accounts provide a way to avoid argumentative stalemate based on conflicting intuitions (between e.g.\, compatibilists and incompatibilists about free will). But they also raise methodological questions about the role of common-sense intuitions in philosophical arguments. This workshop gathers proponents and critics of revisionist views about free will. \;

Concept Note
\n&ldquo\;Why is the world falling apart when it&rsquo\;s my turn to be adult?&rdquo\; As the future grows less assured and more precarious for the younger generation today\, this viral question has been circulating and echoing across the digital landscape worldwide\, especially under the gloom of a global resource crisis\, the rise of populism\, the backsliding of democracy and the rule of law\, and more. While for some young people living in war-stricken or less privileged regions\, the threats are far graver and more imminent than the others\, the majority of youth nonetheless seem to be shadowed by such existential questions. Will the planet cease to be habitable when I grow older? How do I live in a society that does not guarantee my basic rights or denies my autonomy? How do I still change the world for the better when my voice is so small and not represented in decisions that directly influence my future? \; \;
\nDespite the youth&rsquo\;s wish to fight for their future\, frustration arises when their voices are not reaching the older\, decision-making generation. Many youth find that adult-dominated activist venues are too dismissive of their concerns and agency\, according to some research (O&rsquo\;Donoghue &\; Strobel\, 2007). Such sentiments are also reflected in spaces specifically set up for youth\, for example\, youth advisory councils\, since adult-directed political socialisation is dissonant with youth&rsquo\;s own self-perception (Taft &\; Gordon\, 2013). This phenomenon has prompted some young people to start their own youth-centred organisations (Gordon &\; Taft\, 2010). The characteristics of these spaces include inventive direct actions\, flat hierarchies\, and benefits from well-connected online networks (Juris &\; Pleyers\, 2009). \;
\nMoreover\, we can observe a rise in young people pushing the boundaries of traditional elements of international human rights law by taking their actions to court. Against the image of being incompetent political actors\, litigation brought by young people to the Internation al Court of Justice or the European Court of Human Rights has upended the usual legal procedures in these platforms. These novel cases include\, for example\, multiple young students suing several respondent states\, none of which they are residents of\, on the grounds of anticipated and aggravated harm caused by these states to the climate (Daly\, 2022). Indeed\, there is no guarantee that these new developments will rewrite the language of human rights law. However\, a certain impact can already be observed through cases such as Sacchi v. Argentina\, where for the first time a state could be deemed violating children's rights under international law on the basis of insufficient reduction of greenhouse gas emissions (Sacchi and Others V. Argentina\, 2026).
\nScholars argue that such momentum is actually built on a growing &ldquo\;autonomous identity&rdquo\; that is shared by the youth through globalisation and networked communication systems (Eide &\; Kunelius\, 2021). Essentially\, the youth movement operates on a network of &ldquo\;shared stories and collective concerns" that empower their voices and create resonance (Starr\, 2021). Therefore\, in the Youth Symposium 2026\, our goal is to cultivate a space where such stories and concerns can be shared among young scholars\, civil society actors or individuals with similar visions. The Youth Symposium 2026 seeks not only to examine the conditions shaping youth today\, but to collectively imagine and insist upon the futures they deserve\, and the future we all share. \;

This NWO sponsored workshop aims to bring together researchers from philosophy\, finance\, economics\, law\, and environmental governance to discuss the emerging field of biodiversity finance. We are particularly interested in questions such as: How can biodiversity impacts be measured and incorporated into financial decision-making? What role should banks\, investors\, and public institutions play in biodiversity conservation? What governance structures are needed to ensure effective biodiversity finance? And how to ensure a just biodiversity finance\, for both human and non-human communities involved?

Randomization\, characterized abstractly\, involves an agent deliberately &ldquo\;flipping a coin&rdquo\;\, or using a randomizing device\, in order to choose between alternatives. The agent could be a person\, a non-human organism\, or &ldquo\;nature&rdquo\; (i.e. evolution). A simple Bayesian argument suggests that randomizing\, rather than choosing a certain alternative\, can never be strictly advantageous\, and is only permissible when the options are of equal value. Yet randomization is widely used in a range of contexts\, for various purposes. The aim of this workshop is to reflect on the use of randomization in five such contexts:
\n1. decision and game theory (why do agents sometimes prefer to randomize?)
\n2. clinical trials / experiments (is randomization necessary for causal inference? what is its justification?)
\n3. politics and society (when is allocation by lottery/sortition a good idea and why?)
\n4. evolutionary biology (when are bet-hedging strategies advantageous?)
\n5. genetics (why did sex and recombination\, i.e. random shuffling of genes\, evolve? why did meiosis evolve to be fair?) \;
\nThe unifying thread is the question of when randomization (by agents or by nature) is "valuable"\, where this can mean rational\, scientifically useful\, socially useful\, fair\, or evolutionarily advantageous\, depending on the context.

This student-led event brings together PPE students as well as students specializing in \;one of the three disciplines.
\n'Progress under Pressure' addresses what we perceive as one of the most significant and urgent challenges of our time. Progress is commonly understood as a movement towards an improved state. While there is an ongoing debate about whether humanity is continually striving towards such a state\, we nonetheless continue to use the idea of progress as a normative guideline for designing many assumptions\, models and systems. However\, the many intersecting and growing crises of our time are putting this normative principle of progress under increasing pressure. Ideas\, paradigms and methods from all three PPE fields can help us rethink the meaning of human progress and recalibrate our assumptions\, models and systems accordingly.
\nThe conference will discuss questions such as:
\nWe believe that PPE is not only a programme of study\, but also a way of relating to the world. It is a crossroads where multiple perspectives on various issues are given the opportunity to develop and come together\, enabling us to see the bigger picture. We hope that\, with the help of your work and ideas\, this PPE conference may contribute to this crossroads.
For questions and clarifications\, feel free to contact us via email (ppe-conference@unilu.ch). \;
Schedule
\nDetails will follow. \;
\nWorkshops
\n1. Rethinking progress: What is progress and development and where should it lead? Is humanity continually striving towards progress or not? How should we rethink progress particularly in relation to poverty\, developing countries and non-Western perspectives? \;
\n2. Systems: The intersecting and growing crises of our time increasingly expose the limits of political\, economic\, and ecological systems. In what ways are our institutions and structures (not) able to withstand this systemic stress? And what is needed to reinforce resilient systems? \;
\n3. Work and Meaning: Today&rsquo\;s labour market increasingly causes competition\, burnout and alienation\, while also excluding integral parts of the sphere of work such as care work. Yet\, work can also satisfy essential needs such as recognition\, meaning and self-realization. How\, then\, should progress in the sphere of work be measured?

\n\;Co-sponsored by the Union for Democratic Communications\, Project Censored and the Park Center for Independent Media
\nOct. 23-24\, 2026
\nIthaca College\, Ithaca\, NY
\n\nThe Union for Democratic Communications\, Project Censored\, and the Park Center for Independent Media\, in a spirit of collaboration and coalition-building\, seek to bring together activists\, artists\, researchers\, and legislators to foster critical approaches that support reimagining an infrastructure rich in equitable and democratic possibilities\, where a healthy media ecosystem can thrive. We invite communication researchers\, journalists\, cultural producers\, policy analysts\, academics\, and activists to submit abstracts that examine our theme\, Media\, Press Freedom\, and Cultural Production in an Authoritarian Age.
\n\nFounded in 1976\, Project Censored celebrates its 50th Anniversary in an era of misinformation\, where press freedom and media independence are under unprecedented attack. At this critical juncture\, Project Censored&rsquo\;s advocacy for freedom of the press\, media literacy and critical thinking\, and the Union for Democratic Communications&rsquo\; critical analysis of communications industries and the fight to democratize them are more crucial than ever. Together\, we are proud to co-host the conference &ldquo\;Media\, Press Freedom and the Fight for Democracy in an Authoritarian Age\,&rdquo\; October 23-24 2026\, at Ithaca College in Ithaca\, New York.
\nUDC\, which held its first conference in 1981\, has worked to overcome concentrated political-economic power in order to contribute to a world based on economic justice\, equality\, and peace. Project Censored\, founded in 1976\, has made its mission to expose and counteract modern-day censorship. Launched in 2008\, the Park Center for Independent Media at Ithaca College is a national center for the study of independent media focusing on news outlets that create and distribute content outside of corporate systems. Together\, UDC\, Project Censored and the Park Center for Independent Media hope to contribute to a more democratic society and world by sharing our scholarly and activist projects.
\nUDC and Project Censored conferences have long spotlighted the march toward totalitarianism--we now find ourselves in it. The historical present is marked by an expansion of violent imperialism and genocide\, accelerating climate and ecological crises\, the silencing and criminalization of dissent\, censorship and government control over the press\, the globalized spread of mis- and disinformation\, and a pandemic spread of oligarchic capitalism.
\n\nAll this is being sustained by an oligopolistic media system whose ready acquiescence to the Trump regime&rsquo\;s preferences reflects that our communications channels have been co-opted to support an increasingly repressive state. Government interference in free speech and media autonomy is no longer covert\, as the U.S. president regularly threatens media outlets\, creatives\, and journalists critical of his administration. An increasingly consolidated industry has enormous interest in serving the political aims of authoritarian governments in the US and abroad\, as mergers have wrought historic levels of consolidation of media power and wealth at a global scale.
\n\nOur shrinking media ecosystem has led to a drastic shift in which voices are considered prominent and whose voices count and matter. It has become increasingly difficult to garner visibility through algorithmic bias and inequity. Privilege has unfairly been afforded to content that promotes increased levels of hate\, violence\, and division. Content from independent news outlets reporting critically on issues of war and peace\, civil liberties\, economic inequality\, racial and gender oppression\, and environmental degradation are being greylisted or blocked entirely. \; Meta\, TikTok\, Google\, and Amazon\, among others\, continue to be vehicles which enable the few to hold the majority in this bid for control. Platforms that were championed as arenas for social gathering and understanding have now been co-opted as agents under an authoritarian regime.
\n\nMedia platforms are increasingly central to shaping contemporary political discourse and are not neutral actors but remain embedded within capitalist\, elite-dominated political economic systems. As such\, these infrastructures enable reactionary political projects and the circulation of extremist content\, leading to further societal division. These tech monopolies have contributed significantly to sowing the seeds of discord\, distrust\, and discontent.
\n\nThrough these attacks\, we continue to see the decimation of public trust and the erosion of democracy through the erasure of local stories and voices and the muzzling of the press. This has produced what Naomi Klein describes as a &ldquo\;mirror world&rdquo\;: a parallel version of our reality\, where distrust of institutions and authority are mobilized in the service of authoritarian interests. As mainstream and publicly funded media outlets and the legacy press are decimated\, independent media is more important than ever. However\, the mirror world presents challenges to the definition and political implications of &ldquo\;independent media.&rdquo\; The spaces for distribution\, such as YouTube\, Instagram\, and TikTok are owned by reactionaries\, and algorithmic logics work in the interest of the Silicon Valley techno-fascists to incubate far-right subcultures and figures.
\n\nNow\, we must ask how do we protect what is left of democratic communication[s]? How do we sustain our social movements in the fight of/for our lives?
\n\nPlease find the conference announcement and this call for papers at democraticcomm.org. \; More information on our co-sponsors Project Censored and the Park Center for Independent Media by clicking on their links.
