25.- 27.05.2018 - Metaphysical Grounding
Workshop: Metaphyical Grounding
A consensus is emerging among philosophers that a wide range of important philosophical questions are best formulated in terms of a distinctive kind of determination or explanation called "ground". A forthcoming anthology will survey the state of the art on ground, including: its history, the kind of explanation or determination it provides, its logic and structure, its connections to other notions, and its applications to other topics. This workshop will provide a forum in which authors writing for this anthology can develop and coordinate their contributions.
