IVC Talk: Zofia Hałęza (University of Łódź) on "How Women Contributed to the Emergence of Polish Analytic Philosophy. Outstanding Female Philosophers from the Lvov-Warsaw School", December 12, 4.45pm

by Zarah Weiss

Dear all, our next speaker in the Philosophy of Science Colloquium organized by the Institute Vienna Circle is Zofia Hałęza (University of Łódź), who will give a talk on December 12, 4.45-6.15 pm. All are welcome! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------ Philosophy of Science Colloquium TALK: Zofia Hałęza (University of Łódź) How Women Contributed to the Emergence of Polish Analytic Philosophy. Outstanding Female Philosophers from the Lvov-Warsaw School Philosophy of Science Colloquium The Institute Vienna Circle holds a Philosophy of Science Colloquium with talks by our present fellows. Date: 12/12/2024 Time: 16h45 Venue: New Institute Building (NIG), Universitätsstraße 7, 1010 Wien, HS 2G Abstract: From today's perspective, one of the most significant 20th-century discoveries in Polish philosophy's history was the Lvov-Warsaw School's rediscovery. The turbulent history of Poland and the political events after the Second World War led this group's members, who were still living, to the conviction that science would forget them. However, thanks to the woman philosopher Izydora Dąmbska and her influence on her pupils, the memory of the Lvov-Warsaw School has survived. I would even say - that the Lvov-Warsaw School has been rediscovered. Although the Lvov-Warsaw School was founded at the end of the 19th century by Kazimierz Twardowski, to a large extent his female students have contributed to the survival of the memory of his legacy, not only in the immaterial sphere, but also in the form of artefacts, archives and documents. In addition to their merits in the struggle for the survival of memory, women at the Lvov-Warsaw School practised philosophy equally with men. At the turn of the 20th century, this was a phenomenon unprecedented in any school of philosophy. A critical analysis of the history of philosophy is a vital phenomenon. After all, people write histories, and several different factors influence them. Thus, it is the history of Polish philosophy which I have been studying for several years. In the case of the Lvov-Warsaw School, we are dealing with a phenomenon that has yet to be sufficiently described-namely, the number of active women in this formation. In this seminar, I am eager to present the potential impact of my research, conducted as part of my PhD at the University of Lodz in the Doctoral School of Humanities. I will also share the inspiration that led me to this topic. How has the issue of women in the Lvov-Warsaw School been addressed in the past, and what promising avenues are there for further exploration? My research is primarily a critical analysis of the history of philosophy and a comparative analysis of the state of Polish philosophy at that time. In telling the story of women associated with the Lvov-Warsaw School, I will also present my research methodology and the unique historical and social conditions that enabled women in Poland to climb the scientific Olympus. I will emphasize the need for philosophical reflection in women's history, as it is not just a reenactment and reminder of forgotten figures and their achievements, but a crucial aspect that adds depth and significance to our understanding of the past. In the current situation, in addition to multiplying research on women's history, we should also ask ourselves - how do we do it? To what end do we conduct such research, and what does it result in?

The duration of the position is one year, and an extension is scheduled for another two years based on a positive evaluation after the first year. This interdisciplinary PhD project is jointly supervised by Marcel Weil (technology assessment) and Rafaela Hillerbrand (philosophy of engineering and technology) and is part of the KLIREC graduate school (https://www.hs-pforzheim.de/forschung/institute/inec/studium_promotion/klir…). Batteries, as a versatile storage option for electricity, are seen as an enabling technology of the energy transition towards renewables, both for the mobility sector and for ensuring the electric grid's stability. At present, lithium-ion batteries are widely used, especially in the mobility and stationary application sectors. Lithium-ion batteries contain critical raw materials like e.g., cobalt, nickel, copper, and graphite, besides lithium. However, the extraction of these metals may have adverse social and environmental impacts. While the latter are addressed to some extent in sustainability assessments, there is not much work yet on the ethical aspects of extraction and usage, particularly regarding circular economy frameworks. This PhD project is meant to fill this research gap and connect quantitative environmental sustainability research with qualitative ethical research. A particular focus shall be placed on international justice aspects within energy ethics. We offer a 1-year contract with the possibility of an extension of another 2 years within KLIREC and affiliation with ITAS (Institute for Technology Assessment and Systems Analysis), KIT. You will participate in the graduate school training program and join a research group at ITAS. ITAS offers a lively inter- and transdisciplinary research environment for technology assessment with a strong focus, amongst others, on sustainability analysis of emerging energy technologies, life cycle analysis, and philosophy of engineering and technology. What we are looking for: You should have a strong background and hold a master's degree in applied ethics, preferably ethics of engineering and technology, or in technology assessment, preferably life cycle analysis (LCA)/material flow analysis (MFA) and have a very strong interest in the respective other field. You are fluent in English and highly motivated to work in an interdisciplinary environment and be able to do independent research. Experience in interdisciplinary collaborations is helpful. Please send your application _by 15.1.2025_ with the usual documents (CV, including three contact persons for a letter of reference, and a writing sample) in a single document to rafaela.hillerbrand(a)gmail.com in an email with the header "KLIREC 2024".

Einladung Workshop: Wissenschaftliche Philosophie | ÖAW | 12.-13. Dezember

by Zarah Weiss

Workshop: Wissenschaftliche Philosophie. Transformationen und Kontinuitäten im langen 19. Jahrhundert Die Kommission für Geschichte und Philosophie der Wissenschaften der ÖAW lädt ein, bei einem Workshop die Transformationen und Kontinuitäten der Wissenschaftlichen Philosophie als Fachdisziplin im langen 19. Jahrhundert zu diskutieren. Termin: 12. bis 13. Dezember 2024 Ort: Österreichische Akademie der Wissenschaften, Collegium Erdgeschoß, Seminarraum 1 Bäckerstraße 13 1010 Wien Kontakt: kgpw(at)oeaw.ac.at [1] T: +43 1 51581-3650 Kommission für Geschichte und Philosophie der Wissenschaften der ÖAW [2] Wissenschaftliche Philosophie ist der Versuch, Philosophie ausgehend von den Kriterien der Einzelwissenschaften als eigenständige Wissenschaft zu etablieren. Die Frage nach ihrer Entwicklungsgeschichte wirft folglich das Problem des komplexen und historisch kontingenten Verhältnisses von Philosophie und Wissenschaft auf. Die Kommission für Geschichte und Philosophie der Wissenschaften der ÖAW lädt zum Workshop "Wissenschaftliche Philosophie" ein, um die Transformationsgeschichte vom 18. ins 19. Jahrhundert genauer zu beleuchten. Dabei sollen sowohl die logische Analyse und ihre empirische Basis thematisiert werden: Erstere liegt in einer Problematisierung der Natur der Mathematik, der Frage nach dem Gegenstand der Logik bzw. nach dem Status von regulativen Prinzipien und ihrer Apriorizität; zweitere im Empfindungsbegriff, dem Konzept raumzeitlicher Gegenstände und dem Elementbegriff. Anmeldung erbeten bis 9. Dezember 2024 an kgpw(at)oeaw.ac.at [1] Mehr Infos und Programm unter: https://www.oeaw.ac.at/detail/veranstaltung/wissenschaftliche-philosophie Links: ------ [1] https://www.oeaw.ac.at//# [2] http://www.oeaw.ac.at/kgpw/

This Friday: Symposium "Science and Politics" (and a reminder for Thursday)

by Vienna Doctoral School of Philosophy

Dear all, this Friday we have our symposium "Science and Politics" as part of the Dissertant*innenseminar. We start again at 2pm at the Verein (Campus, Hof 1, Eingang 1.2). Unfortunately, there will be only two talks, because Silke Körber had to withdraw for health reasons (best wishes to Silke: get well soon!). This will be the schedule now: 2-3pm: Bianca Crewe (UBC Vancouver): The Symbolic View of Science and its Application in Politics 3-4pm: Christian Damböck (IVC): Fascism as Illogical Reasoning. Rudolf Carnap's Forgotten Approach I add abstracts to this email and attach the paper for the second talk. To those of you interested in Neue Sachlichkeit, here also a reminder to the book presentation for Hans-Joachim Dahms (ed.), /Franz Roh 1890-1965. Eine Kollektivbiografie/, which takes place tomorrow, Thursday, 5pm, at the IWK (in German): https://www.iwk.ac.at/events/franz-roh-1890-1965-kunstkritiker-vorkaempfer-… best wishes and see you soon Christian *Symposium "Science and Politics", Vienna Circle Society (Campus, Hof 1, Eingang 1.2), Friday, December 6, 2pm:* 2pm: Bianca Crewe (UBC Vancouver): The Symbolic View of Science and its Application in Politics It is now common knowledge that a sea-change occurred in the philosophy of science towards the end of the nineteenth century. Many philosophers of this era characterize the preceding paradigm as mechanisticor materialist, in reference to the philosophical outlook, derived by science and presupposed by science, that suggests a specific view of the methods, aims, and standards of intelligibility in science and epistemology. Here, I will describe how this paradigm operates in the work of three representatives of philosophy in the twentieth century: Ernst Cassirer, Alfred North Whitehead, and Philipp Frank. These figures position themselves as overcoming mechanistic philosophy through an understanding of science as symbolic. I focus on how their broadly functionalist, semiotic views develop out of reflections on the methods of the physical sciences in the second half of the nineteenth century (particularly electromagnetic theory), and how this is taken up in their later work in considerations of the role of symbols in politics and culture more generally. All three, I argue, have a critical project in common, aimed at freedom from historically conditioned symbols. The primary tool they use in this project is narratives of the history of philosophy of science. In the case of Whitehead, my focus is primarily on two lecture series’, published respectively as Science and the Modern World in 1925, and Symbolism: its Meaning and Effect in 1927. My focus in Cassirer will be his application of symbolic forms to nationalism, and in the case of Frank, I will offer a reading of his symbolic view of science in service of a humanistic project “synthesizing” the sciences with other parts of human culture, without just latching onto evocative general terminology in the sciences (like matter, energy, etc.) to do so. This project moves to recognize the centrality of the concept of the symbol in twentieth century philosophy; its genesis, and its common place in the work of seemingly diverse philosophers, towards a different thematic emphasis in the history of analytic philosophy and the history of philosophy of science. 3pm: Christian Damböck (IVC): Fascism as Illogical Reasoning. Rudolf Carnap's Forgotten Approach In his now completely forgotten contribution to the Harvard Tercentenary Celebration in 1936, Rudolf Carnap outlines a theory of illogical reasoning that can be interpreted as a theory of fascist politics. While theories of fascism often see the loss of humanistic values as the primary problem, Carnap sees the values of humanism as natural components of the scientific world conception, so that anti-humanism and fascism can only arise as a consequence of the loss of the latter. According to Carnap, illogical thinking occurs in three forms: (a) political attitudes are disguised as facts or destiny, (b) inconsistent or logically misconstrued value systems are accepted, (c) insufficiently confirmed or empirically false premises are taken as a basis. Fascism arises from propaganda that spreads illogical thinking in society. I contextualize Carnap's 1936 approach to explain why it was not pursued further and why value-based theories of fascism continue to prevail today. On this basis, I also outline some consequences of a Carnapian understanding of fascism for contemporary politics.
