CfP: Symposium: Intersections of Ethics and Aesthetics (December 16–17, 2025, University of Málaga)9/10/2025 We are pleased to announce the Call for Papers for the I Ǝ&E Symposium: Intersections of Ethics and Aesthetics, which will be held on December 16–17, 2025at the University of Málaga. The relationship between ethics and aesthetics has been an inexhaustible source of reflection throughout the History of Philosophy. In recent decades, both spheres have once again converged and blurred their boundaries, leading to exciting new developments in both fields. This renewed entanglement has resulted in the development of new subdisciplines that emphasize the intersection between the aesthetic and the ethical. Examples include Yuriko Saito's aesthetics of care (2022) and Marta Tafalla’s environmental aesthetics (2019). Moreover, this convergence is not limited to a simple reunion between the two disciplines, but extends to the analysis of their modes of interaction and the conceptual problems they share, as evidenced in moralism (Carroll, 1996) and aestheticism (Alcaraz León, 2018). We invite students at all levels, as well as researchers and professionals, to submit contributions that explore the current convergence between ethics and aesthetics, addressing issues such as:

For the program please have a look at the .pdf attached. Theme: “Selfhood and Exteriority”
How should selfhood be described and what is the nature of its relationship with exteriority (other people and beings, the environment as such)? Can the “I” be considered a distinct individual or should it rather be understood as a system of multiple agents? What is the nature of our relationship as “selves” with our society? How responsible are we for our actions vis-à-vis our exterior being(s)? What, if anything, does it mean to be free? What is, has been, and could be Chinese philosophy’s take on these and other questions relating to selfhood? How have they been tackled throughout the history of Chinese philosophy? What different approaches are found in the various Chinese philosophical schools? What can be learned from Chinese philosophy for improving our adopted ways to approach our world? How can Chinese philosophy engage in meaningful dialogues on such and related issues with other philosophical traditions of the world? Among suggested topics to be discussed are:
Official languages of the conference are English and Chinese. Abstracts should be no more than 250 words. Panel proposals should include the title and a brief description of the panel and the names, affiliations, email addresses of the participants, and the titles of each participant’s presentation with abstracts of max. 250 words. Panels can be composed of three or four presentations. Each paper presentation has 30 minutes, including discussion. All contributions have to be submitted by 30 November 2024! Call for Papers: The 24th International Conference of the ISCP in Ljubljana (2025-06-20-23)20/6/2024 The International Society for Chinese Philosophy invites you to participate in the 24th ISCP conference, to be held in Ljubljana, Slovenia from Friday, June 20 to Monday, June 23, 2025, hosted by the Department of Asian Studies, Faculty of Arts, University of Ljubljana. Topic: “Addressing Global Crises and Reimagining Solutions through Chinese Philosophy” The current crises, such as aggressive wars, severe environmental disasters, unequal distribution of resources, viral pandemics, etc., are global problems that cannot be fully solved within the narrow framework of individual countries or nation-states. They must also be addressed within the larger framework of global cooperation and solidarity. Such strategies require the development of genuine intercultural dialogue, i.e., dialogue that goes beyond the currently fashionable terminologies and can lead to a truly equal transcultural exchange of knowledge and ideas. This conference aims to explore both traditional and contemporary Chinese philosophical perspectives, seeking their contributions towards crafting a new planetary ethos that emphasizes mutual understanding and practices of solidarity in confronting these universal challenges. Submission guidelines and timeline The conference languages are both English and Chinese. English abstracts should be 250 to 300 words; Chinese abstracts should be about 500 characters. Abstracts should include paper title, author’s name, affiliation, and email contact information. Panel submissions (including “Author-Meets-Critics” sessions) should include the topic, panelists and their affiliations, a summary of the proposed panel in 300-500 words (English) or 800-1000 characters (Chinese), and an abstract for each of the papers (250–300 words for papers in English and about 500 characters for papers in Chinese). Individual paper presentations are 20-25 minutes each. Proposed panels are 2 hours with three presenters. Timeline: Deadline for submission of abstracts and panel proposals: October 15, 2024 Communication of acceptance: December 15th 2024 Online registration will be opened from March 1, 2025 For further information visit https://iscp-online1.org/conferences/ .
