There has been a resurgence of interest in pragmatist approaches to old philosophical problems. Over the past 40 years, such approaches have been most prominent in work in metaethics, where they have been a topic of extensive discussion and controversy. But more recently, neo-pragmatist analyses have also been applied to other topics such as truth, possibility, knowledge, meaning and more. This workshop is intended to bring together philosophers who have worked on developing the neo-pragmatist approach and applying it to a variety of issues, in metaethics and beyond.

Seating is limited and registration is required.  To register, please write to niklas.dahl@fil.lu.se

Organized by Amie Thomasson & Niklas Dahl (Lund University), and sponsored by the Leslie Center for the Humanities, the Harris Foundation, the Department of Philosophy & the Ethics Institute.
