International Workshop:
Engaging Philosophies in/from Latin America and the Caribbean in the Anthropocene
A workshop on the study of thoughts and philosophies in Latin America and the Caribbean is to be held under the organizational auspices of the UTCP in collaboration with the EAA. This project was planned by the organizers of the Japanese Philosophy Network, who usually organize lectures of specialists in Japanese philosophy research in English. The objective of this workshop is twofold: firstly, to promote research into the philosophies of the unconscious marginalization of "others", which can partially be rooted in the idea that "philosophy is a Western/North American thing"; and secondly, to discuss the philosophies and thoughts with a focus on Latin America and the Caribbean in this context. The language of the workshop will be English, and the starting point will be the ideas and philosophies on/in/from Latin America and the Caribbean, but issues related to the concept of “the other”, as well as “race” and “perphery”, can be seen in a wide variety of situations in Japanese every day life as well. If you are interested in discussing the unconscious marginalization of "the other" or "others", we cordially invite you to join us. No advance registration is required.
