SUMMARY:Towards a Phenomenology of Social Change
DESCRIPTION:The phenomenology of sociality that currently attracts growing attention focuses on a systematic evaluation of the phenomenological approach to the area of social relations and interactions. Thanks to this initiative\, we get the chance to rethink the significance and reach of phenomenological explorations of topics such as intersubjectivity\, empathy\, shared emotions\, group intentions\, collective agency\, and social coherence. It is beyond doubt that the works of Husserl\, Heidegger\, Merleau-Ponty\, Sartre\, Levinas\, Patočka\, Arendt\, Schütz\, Scheler\, Stein\, Henry and many others give enough material for a systematic exploration of social ontology. It seems\, though\, that the phenomenology of sociality leaves aside the important aspect of the way we share our world with others. What is implicitly presupposed in a collective sharing of our world\, without being explicitly examined\, is the phenomenon of social change. \nAny interaction with others is somehow related to social change\, for it either provokes it\, or avoids it. Social interaction that takes place in the semantic context of a social world oscillates between stability and instability. While the state of stability is maintained by social rituals\, habits\, and other everyday practices\, instability generates a change that more or less alters the semantic structure of the social world. In more radical forms\, social change then disrupts established collective identities and makes way for new collective agents. However\, social change doesn’t always yield positive effects; it can also cause individual or collective traumas if it is too sudden or drastic. \nWhether it concerns tiny shifts of social relations\, or spectacular social transformations\, it is necessary to reflect on the nature of social changes\, to demonstrate what they have in common and what differentiates them. The decisive factor for us is less the extent to which social changes alter history than their ontological character. The way we understand it\, the ontology of social change examines the overall semantic alteration of the social world and the precarious integrity of social agents that are involved in social change. In social change we can also observe shifts from social invisibility to social visibility that take place when new collective agents appear or step out of the shadows of social reality. With respect to all these phenomena\, it is possible to map various possibilities of understanding social change\, its conditions and effects. \nFor a critical evaluation of the phenomenological approach to social change it is vital to confront the phenomenology of sociality with analytic philosophy\, critical theory\, postmarxism or poststructuralism. We certainly cannot ignore the whole field of sociology\, where the concept of social change plays a fundamental role. In addition\, we intend to bring phenomenology into dialogue with disciplines such as gender studies\, postcolonial studies\, minority studies\, migration studies\, or the ethics of care. We believe a dialogue between phenomenology and other approaches to sociality could create a platform where the phenomena of social change\, social visibility and invisibility\, as well as the formation of collective subjects will be understood in a complex way. Case studies and the results of field work can be also taken into consideration for the conference\, but we generally tend to a more synthetic approach that has the potential to grasp the basic ontological features of social change. \nSince our conference is meant to lay new ground for further research\, we intend to follow the principles of liberté\, egalité\, fraternité. Hence\, there will be no keynote speakers\, and all active participants will be treated with the same respect. \n  \nWe encourage contributors to consider the following topics\, but we are open to any other suggestions: \n• human interaction and social change \n• temporality and historicity of social change \n• ontology of social change – between project and event \n• traumatic effects of social changes \n• conditions that enable formation or dissipation of a collective agency \n• macroscopic and microscopic social changes \n• social visibility and social invisibility \n• new media\, new forms of sociality and social change \n• social change between phenomenology and analytic philosophy \n• interaction between phenomenology and critical theory \n• social change between phenomenology and poststructuralism \n• a phenomenology of social change from the feminist point of view \n• contribution of minority studies and postcolonialism to a phenomenology of social change \n• from phenomenology to sociology of social change \nSubmissions: We invite all scholars interested in social change to submit abstracts on any topic relevant to the theme of conference. Abstract should not exceed 500 words and must be received via email by July 31\, 2017. Authors will be notified on the status of their submission by August 15\, 2017. Finished papers should not exceed 30 minutes reading time. Thanks to the support of the Czech Grant Agency the conference offers no fee participation to all paper presenters. \nAbstracts and inquiries should be sent to: kouba@flu.cas.cz

SUMMARY:Marieke Borren - "Public Space\, Performative Freedom\, and Embodiment"
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Marieke Borren (Utrecht) gives a talk on “Public Space\, Performative Freedom and Embodiment” at the colloquium Paderborner Kolloquium zur Philosophie at Paderborn University.\n \n“Butler (2015) suggests that the freedom of assembly is prior to the freedom of expression. She demonstrates that public space is constituted\, not just by discourse\, but more importantly\, by embodied collective performances\, i.e. the appearing and assembling of bodies. Taking this suggestion as its starting point\, this paper seeks to investigate the relation between freedom of movement\, political freedom and public space. It will confront Butler’s account of the freedom of assembly with Arendt’s remarks on freedom of movement\, and with Merleau-Ponty’s phenomenology of embodiment. \nAlthough Arendt hints at the corporeal nature of freedom of movement as basic to political freedom\, she does not take bodies’ movements seriously enough. For Merleau-Ponty\, on the other hand\, the body and the world are strictly complementary. Space is constituted by the body’s motility and its ‘I can’s’. However\, he does not account for the political meaning of this basic fact of embodiment\, whereas his notion of freedom is surprisingly abstract. \nI argue that Butler is right in demonstrating that performative freedom refers not just to discourse (speech) but also\, and maybe even more fundamentally\, to embodied collective performances. Assemblages of bodies in public space are not merely pre-political\, as Arendt thinks\, but in themselves already politically meaningful. However\, I would argue that the freedom of assembly is conditional\, not on the vulnerable\, precarious and suffering body (which ‘as such’ is a-political\, as I agree with Arendt)\, but on the capable – including the resisting – body. \nAs part of a larger project on the phenomenology of Apartheid and post-Apartheid civic action\, I will illustrate my argument with two case studies. First\, the 1960 protests\, led by Robert Sobukwe\, against the Pass Law which severely restricted black people’s freedom of movement. These protests constituted not just struggles for liberation\, but also exercises in political freedom. The second case concerns post-Apartheid inhibitions of freedom of movement in public space in democratic post-Apartheid South Africa\, due to the generalized fear of physical violence on the one hand and the acceleration of the privatization of formerly public spaces.” \n(Dr. Marieke Borren) \n

SUMMARY:Colloque International Émilie Du Châtelet
DESCRIPTION:INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ÉMILIE DU CHÂTELET \nParis\, November 17th and 18th\, 2017 \nArchives diplomatiques (La Courneuve) and Archives nationales (Paris) \nThe Société Voltaire\, Les Cahiers haut-marnais and the Center for the History of Women Philosophers and Scientists (Paderborn University\, Germany) co-organize an international conference on the works of the French Enlightenment philosopher Émilie Du Châtelet. Being the second international conference in 2017 on this exceptional thinker – following the conferences “Émilie Du Châtelet und die deutsche Aufklärung” (Potsdam 2006) and “Époque Émilienne” (Paderborn\, 2017) – the forthcoming event documents once more the decisive progress made by Du Châtelet scholarship in recent years. \nÉmilie Du Châtelet\, whose works have been widely neglected until the mid-20th century\, is now increasingly recognized as one of the central figures of the early European Enlightenment. The rediscovering of the once famous and influential philosophe has been particularly accelerated during the last years by the discovery of by then unknown manuscripts in 2010. This has enabled completely new research on her life and work\, thus opening new historical and interpretive perspectives. Consequently\, the contributions to the conference deal with the full scale of research on her work. The topics of the talks range from the edition of newly accessible manuscripts through new perspectives on some of her texts to the fate of her son\, an important figure in the beginning French Revolution. \nSpeakers include: \nÉlisabeth Badinter\, Anne-Lise Rey\, Natalia Speranskaja\, Eszter Kovacs\, Ruth Hagengruber\, Andrew Brown\, Stefanie Ertz\, Ana Rodrigues\, Elena Muceni\, Mylène Vangeon\, Marie Fontaine\, Maria Susana Seguin\, Veronique Le Ru\, Gianni Paganini\, Michel Toulmonde\, Linda Gil\, Fritz Nagel\, John Iverson \nOrganizers: Andrew Brown\, Ulla Kölving\, Alain Morgat\, Samuel Mourin  \nLocations: \nNovember 17th: \nCentre des Archives diplomatiques du ministère des Affaires étrangères\n3 rue Suzanne Masson\, 93120 La Courneuve\nRER-B\, La Courneuve-Aubervilliers \nNovember 18th: \nArchives nationales\, Hôtel de Soubise\, 60 rue des Francs-Bourgeois\, 75003 Paris

SUMMARY:The Future of Europe – an Urgent Challenge to Global Philosophy
DESCRIPTION:The aim of SWIP Austria is to bring into focus the importance of women working in academia and to promote their work in philosophy both inside and outside of the university setting. An organized association of women philosophers and feminist philosophers is especially important when set against the recent institutional background in Europe and more specifically in Austria. It is important to emphasize that the intention of the society is the visualization of women in philosophy from all disciplines\, sub-disciplines and shades of opinion inside philosophy. SWIP is not only a forum for feminists and gender-scientists\, it should be a society for feminists\, as well as women philosophers who do not consider themselves feminists or feminist philosophers per se. The targets and duties of the society for women in philosophy are as follows: the society is a nonprofit organization to support women working in and committed to the study of philosophy in Austria. Its purpose is to advance equal treatment and gender parity for women in philosophy\, both students and professionals\, philosophers at all levels of academia\, colleagues in other institutions and also in our society as a whole. \nSWIP will work towards the following aims: Fostering and facilitating cooperation between women in philosophy; supporting women in philosophy in a holistic sense; building awareness of recent and past discrimination against women; collecting useful information of scientific and philosophical concern for women in philosophy; commitment to ending discrimination against women\, which can be found not only in all parts of our society\, but also at universities. It is very important to offer a forum to connect women in philosophy both in Austria and internationally.

SUMMARY:Culture of Exclusion? 5th Edition: Women
DESCRIPTION:In the fifth (and the first international) edition of our „Culture of Exclusion” conference program we want to examine the situation of women.\nOn the one hand\, women in Western societies have gained the rights to equality. However\, a question about the actual implementation of these rights emerges. Is really the role of women equal to the role of men? Do they really earn the same? Or maybe they still have to choose between career and family? Are women still objects of sexist remarks or is their sexuality commonly respected? \nOn the other hand\, in many regions of the world women are objectified and subordinated to men. Nevertheless\, there are also feminists in those regions. So are the human rights really for all humans or not? \nHalf of the mankind is constituted by women\, often marginalized\, often mocked and ridiculed\, „too old”\, „too fat”\, „too dumb”\, „too emotional”. Our discussion of the exclusion will analyze these stereotypes resulting in the lack of actual equality and the approval of a gender-conditioned physical and psychological violence. It will also aim at showing the power of women and their ever important contribution in shaping cultures and societies.
