Together with Colin Caret and Sebastian Speitel, I will present some new work on invariance in non-classical logic at this year’s OZSW conference in Eindhoven this August. This will be my first OZSW conference and I’m excited to find out what it’s like.
The other talks will be given by Rachel Boddy and and Johannes Korbmacher, so make sure to drop in if you’re in the area!
Here’s the abstract of the symposium:
“Recent years have witnessed a revitalization and renewal of questions in the philosophy of logic and philosophical logic, fruitfully connecting these research areas with broader issues in the philosophies of science, language, mind, epistemology, and meta-ethics (see Brendel et. al. for overview). This symposium aims to build on recent developments in these areas, to disseminate and consolidate currently active lines of research, and to motivate deeper collaborative work on these themes.
“Inspired by methodological shifts in adjacent disciplines, philosophers of logic and philosophical logicians have revived several classic debates and rethought their conceptual and methodological foundations. This has led to ongoing research programmes in the foundations of logic and mathematics, as well as fruitful applications of logical methods and insights to other areas of philosophy (see, e.g., Griffiths & Paseau, Stei, and Warren]). A result of the proliferation of methods and applications has been an artificial separation of debates in these areas with the consequence of little interaction between different communities of researchers. The goal of the symposium is therefore two-fold: on the one hand, it wishes to showcase novel ideas and recent developments. On the other, it wishes to counteract the continuing drifting-apart of different research communities applying the same methodological paradigm. To this end, the symposium will bring together researchers working on different projects in philosophical logic, the philosophy of logic and its applications to offer a forum for exchange and connection.
“The individual presentations at this symposium have been chosen to provide an interesting cross-section of current work in the philosophy of logic and philosophical logic. The presentations aim to showcase recent results and developments, and to stimulate further collaboration and exchange between researchers coming from different areas and methodologies.”
