Call for papers
Multilateral Kant Colloquium - 8th Edition
University of Catania – Catania (Italy) - October
11-13, 2018
Abstracts are welcome for the 8th Edition of
the Multilateral Kant Colloquium “Kant and the Contemporary World:
Philosophy, Science, Politics,” to be held at the Department of Political
and Social Sciences of the University of Catania, October 11-13, 2018.
The theme is to be intended in the broadest possible sense, as involving any
aspect of Kant’s philosophy with an impact on issues debated in contemporary
philosophy and science, as well as relevant for the most pressing political
problems of our time.
Scholars from all over the world will be involved in
presentations and discussions of the most up-to-date research on Kant’s
philosophy. Some of the keynotes in this edition will be Professors Paul Guyer, Pauline Kleingeld, Robert
Louden, Bernd Doerflinger, Heiner Klemme,
Alessandro Pinzani, Mario Caimi, Lea Ypi, Luigi Caranti. With the
support of the Società Italiana di Studi Kantiani, the conference is part of an annual initiative started in 2008 by an international group of scholars keen on
promoting informed debate on the latest developments of Kant scholarships.
Previous editions took place in Italy (“Kant Today”, Verona and Padua),
Portugal (“What is Man? – Was ist der Mensch?”, Lisbon 2009), Germany (“Kant
and Antinomical Thinking”, Mainz 2011; and “Kant and His Critics”, Halle 2017),
Brazil (“Kant and the Metaphors of Reason”, Tiradentes 2013), Spain (“Kant’s
Short Writings – Kleine Schriften”, Madrid 2014), and the United States (“Kant
on Violence, Revolution, and Progress”, Hempstead, NY 2016). The current
edition aims at highlighting the relevance of Kantian thought with respect to
the contemporary world, which becomes increasingly acknowledged in a wide
number of issues crosscutting both the theoretical and practical sides of his
work.
The Colloquium is addressed to scholars at an advanced
stage of their career as well as junior researchers with an interest in Kantian
philosophy. Participants will find the ideal context for high quality feedback
on their ongoing work and challenging discussions. Over three days, the
conference will be structured around 10 invited talks and
presentations selected through this call for papers.

and present their papers in Italian, German, Portuguese, Spanish or French. If
