ISoS-Koordination (Forschungsmanagement/Wissenschaftsforschung)
An der Fakultät für Geschichtswissenschaft/ Philosophie/ Theologie an
der Universität Bielefeld ist die folgende Position zu besetzen:
_Wissenschaftliche*r Mitarbeiter*in (m/w/d) (PostDoc) für die

Philosophie und Theologie, die Medizinische Fakultät OWL und die
Fakultät fürSoziologie beteiligt. Das ISoS ist ein Ort, an dem
wissenschaftsreflexive Forschung und Lehre stattfindet und gefördert
wird. Unsere Forschung ist integrativ, weil sie verschiedene
wissenschaftsreflexive Disziplinen zusammenbringt (v.a. historische,
philosophische und soziologische Perspektiven auf Wissenschaft); sie ist
interdisziplinär, weil sie nicht nur über Wissenschaft reflektiert,
sondern dies in z. T. enger Zusammenarbeit mit Wissenschaftler*innen
macht; sie ist immersiv, weil sie Wissenschaft als verwoben mit der
Gesellschaft betrachtet und nicht nur wissenschaftlich sondern auch
gesellschaftlich relevant sein will.

der laufende Betrieb des ISoS organisatorisch unterstützt werden. _Die
Stelle kann in zwei Varianten besetzt werden:_ mit einem Schwerpunkt im
Bereich des Forschungsmanagements, aber mit einem Anteil eigenständiger
Forschung _(Variante 1) oder_ als eine reine Forschungsmanagement-Stelle
_(Variante 2)_. Bewerber*innen können sich entsprechend ihrer bisherigen
Karriere und ihren beruflichen Zielen auch auf beide Varianten bewerben
und sich später im Prozess entscheiden.
_Ihre Aufgaben_
Vielfältige Aufgaben im Bereich des Forschungsmanagements und der
Forschungsorganisation _(Variante 1: 70%; Variante 2: 95 %)_, z. B.:
- Förderung der Vernetzung und Kooperationen zwischen den beteiligten
Disziplinen
- Unterstützung von Drittmittelanträgen
- Vernetzung mit nationalen und internationalen Science Studies Zentren
- Organisation von wissenschaftlichen Veranstaltungen (Workshops,
Konferenzen, Tagungen, etc.)
- Organisationsunterstützung des ISoS- Kolloquiums
- Kommunikation nach außen (z. B. Website) und in die Universität hinein
eigenständige Forschung in der Wissenschaftsreflexion oder in
angrenzenden Bereichen _(Variante 1: 25 %; Variante 2:0 %)_
Wahrnehmung von Aufgaben in der akademischen Selbstverwaltung (5 %)
- Vor- und Nachbereitung von Direktoriumssitzungen und
Mitgliederversammlungen
- Korrespondenz mit dem wissenschaftlichen Beirat

_Text: _The PhD position is part of the DFG project 'Reasonable Ideals:
Metaphysics and Meta-metaphysics in Kant's Transcendental Dialectic'.
This project re-examines Kant's Transcendental Dialectic, challenging
the traditional view that Kant held a purely negative attitude towards
rationalist metaphysics. lnstead, the project aims to uncover Kant's
nuanced and, at times, positive take on the ideas of reason - the soul,
the world, and God. In doing so, it offers fresh insights into Kant
scholarship that also open new avenues for contemporary debates in
(meta-)metaphysics.
The project is based at the Humboldt-University of Berlin and is led by
Prof. Dr. Tobias Rosefeldt, who will also be the PhD supervisor. The
project benefits from a strong network of national and international
collaborations. lt is embedded in the Classical German Philosophy
platform, which connects Kant scholars in the Berlin region. In
addition, the project is supported by the following international
partners: Andrew Chignell (Princeton University), Eric Watkins (UCSD),
Nicholas Stang (University of Toronto) and Maya Krishnan (University of
Chicago).
The research fellow will be expected to contribute original research on
the themes of the project. Active participation in Kant reading groups,
the weekly colloquium and other scholarly activities is expected. The
research fellow should contribute to a vibrant intellectual community.
This will be matched by substantial institutional support. There will be
funding for (international) travel and financial support to organise
workshops on topics of choice. There will also be opportunities to
engage with the scholars and partners affiliated with the project. There
will be teaching opportunities, but teaching is not required.
_Job description:_
* scientific services in research in the DFG-funded project ´Reasonable
Ideals: Metaphysics and Meta-metaphysics in Kant's Transcendental
Dialectic´
* active participation in Kant reading groups, the weekly colloquium and
other scholarly activities within the DFG-funded project
* tasks for personal scientific qualification (doctoral degree)
_Requirements:_
* completed scientific university education in philosophy (Master`s
degree or equivalent)
* relevant PhD project
* strong background in Kant's theoretical philosophy
* additional knowledge in one or more of the following areas desired:
Metaphysics, Epistemology, Philosophy of Mind, Philosophy of Language
* fluency in English or German
* reading proficiency in German preferred
_Bewerbung an:_
Please send your application (including cover letter, academic CV,
research statement incl. description of PhD project, writing sample
(ideally on Kant), 2 letters of recommendation and copies of relevant
certificates and documents) referencing the _job id_ to
Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Faculty of Arts and Humanities,
Department of Philosophy, Prof. Dr. Tobias Rosefeldt, Unter den Linden

(3) CALL FOR PAPERS (Neuchâtel, Deadline: 15.03.2025)
The 2025 Symposium of the Swiss Philosophical Society
August, 27th - 29th, 2025, Université de Neuchâtel
Overview
The concept of neutrality permeates philosophy, science, and everyday
life. From state neutrality in international relations to value
neutrality in social sciences, from emotional neutrality to neutral
monism in metaphysics, this fundamental concept raises crucial questions
across disciplines.
* Political Philosophy: State neutrality in international relations and
domestic policy
* Philosophy of Science: Value neutrality, scientific objectivity
* Ethics: Neutrality of meta-ethics, agent-neutral reasons, population
ethics
* Epistemology: Suspension of judgment between belief and disbelief
* (Meta)metaphysics: Neutrality of metaphysical frameworks, descriptive
vs critical metaphysics
* Philosophy of Mind: Neutral monism, psychological descriptions
* Logic and Mathematics: Ontological neutrality, zero values
* Social Philosophy: Institutional neutrality in universities, media,
and public spaces
* ...
Key Questions
Papers may explore any aspect of neutrality across philosophical
domains. Potential questions include, but are not limited to:
* Is there a common core concept of neutrality that cuts across ethics,
logic, philosophy of mind, politics, economics, science, etc., or are
there only fragmented, loosely related uses of a single term?
* Should neutrality be understood as an absence or rather as a balance
between opposing forces, ideas, or actions?
* If neutrality is an absence, what is it an absence of?
* If neutrality is a balance, what is it a balance between, and how is
the opposition to be understood?
* What kinds of entities can be said to be neutral?
* Is neutrality a good thing (perhaps on a par with impartiality) or a
bad thing (perhaps on a par with compromise, in the negative sense)?
* Is neutrality achievable?
* Is a form of neutrality (e.g., political neutrality) desirable in some
contexts (e.g., schools) and not in others (e.g., the political arena)?
* What is the opposite of neutral: biased, subjective, unbalanced,
one-sided, opinionated, prejudiced, committed, engaged, value-laden,
passionate?
* What is the relationship between neutrality and cognate ideas such as
impartiality, compromise, pluralism, agnosticism, balance or moderation?
* ...
Submissions
Up to 60 papers will be selected for presentation. We welcome
submissions on the conference theme from all areas of philosophy and the
history of philosophy. Beyond scholarly quality, the primary selection
criterion is relevance to the overarching theme of the conference. The
questions mentioned above serve only as suggestions; submissions need
not focus on them, provided they engage with the conference topic in
some way. Each talk will be allocated 40 minutes, with a maximum of 25
minutes for the presentation and at least 15 minutes for Q&A.
Submissions should be sent via email to neuchtrality(a)gmail.com by _March
15, 2025_. Please submit an anonymized PDF file containing an extended
abstract of approximately 650-850 words (excluding references), a short
abstract (100-150 words), and at least three keywords. Your full name,
title, and affiliation must be included in the body of the email.
Decisions will be communicated by May 31.
Submissions may be in English, German, French, or Italian, though
English contributions are expected to attract the largest audience. We
particularly encourage submissions from postdoctoral researchers and
advanced Ph.D. students.
Fees
A participation fee of CHF 60 applies, with a 50% reduction for
students, including Ph.D. candidates. Unfortunately, we are unable to
provide travel grants or accommodation stipends.
