[Commlist] Ecrea Philosophy of Communication section pre-conference

*New Perspectives and Directions in Philosophy of Communication*

*/Philosophy of Communication Section‘s online pre-conference before the 
9th European Communication Conference/*

*October 7, 2022*

Philosophy is perhaps the most reflective of all academic disciplines. 
Philosophers keep asking questions not only about the world, our 
knowledge of it or the ways we act or should act in it. Rather, the 
question what philosophy is and what is its place in the world is also a 
very important philosophical question by itself.

Since in this one-day event we do not aim at the presentation of mature 
research, but rather at reflections regarding the state of the 
philosophy of communications, we invite participants to put themselves 
forward for short interventions (no longer than 10 minutes), which can 
then form the basis for conversation. The proposed topics are three:

*1.Philosophy in institutions, philosophy of institutions*

This session would be devoted to a conversation about the section itself 
and how it is developing. Why do we need the institutionalization of the 
philosophy of communication, what forms may it take in the future? Here 
we would look at what the section can do for early career researchers, 
how could we enliven exchange within the section and cooperation with 
other sections.

*2.In Search for the Fields of Impact*

What impact philosophy (of communication) can have on the world outside 
of academia? What are the big issues of the day and what is the 
contribution philosophy of communication can make? What are the topics 
and questions, or even events philosophy of communication has not 
considered yet, but definitely should?

*3.Philosophy of Communication beyond the “parent disciplines”*

How do we see its place in both institutionalized disciplines – 
philosophy and communication? Should it reach out for dialogue with 
other disciplines – e.g. linguistics, literary or art studies? What 
forms these collaborations take or may take?

Please send the intents to participate in the discussion and preliminary 
thoughts to the organizers by 15 July, 2022:
