Dewey in Mexico (International Conference)

Mon, 19 Sep 2011 20:57:00 -0500

Dewey in Mexico (International Conference)
by Gregory F. Pappas — last modified Jun 30, 2011 01:02 PM

Dewey in Mexico will be the first international and interdisciplinary conference that revisits the historical relation between Dewey and Mexico with the purpose of deriving some philosophical lessons for today.

Dewey in Mexico

“It was the most interesting single intellectual experience in my life”

–JOHN DEWEY

January 12-14, 2012

Instituto de Investigaciones Filosóficas (Institute of Philosophical Research)

Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico
Ciudad de la Investigación en Humanidades
Ciudad Universitaria, 04510, Coyoacán
México, D.F.

Confirmed co-sponsors:

Society for the Advancement of American Philosophy

John Dewey Society

The Center for Dewey Studies

Texas A&M University

Autonomous University of Sinaloa, Mexico

UNAM Mexico

International conference with speakers from the USA (e.g. Robert Westbrook, Richard Bernstein, and Larry Hickman), Mexico, Colombia, Spain, and Russia.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

John Dewey is the classical American pragmatist that has had the most extensive influence in Latin America. This influence is, in part, because of his memorable visits to Mexico. The first visit was to lecture at the 1926 Summer Session at the National University, following his trip to Europe with Albert Barnes. The second was in 1937 as chair of the Preliminary Commission of Inquiry into the charges brought by Stalin against Trotsky (it became known as “The Dewey Commission”).

Through these visits and translations of his works, Dewey had a significant impact in Mexico (and Latin America), but Dewey himself was also impacted by his experiences in Mexico. In a Letter to Max Eastman, Dewey wrote about his visit to Mexico to chair the Trostsky trial, “It was the most interesting single intellectual experience in my life”.

In the last decade, there have been conferences held around the world (e.g. China) centered on re-assessing the global impact of Dewey’s work. Yet none of these conferences were held in Latin America. Dewey in Mexico will be the first international and interdisciplinary conference that revisits the historical relation between Dewey and Mexico with the purpose of deriving some philosophical lessons for today.

CALL FOR PAPERS

The central theme of the conference is the historical and philosophical connections between John Dewey and Mexico. For instance:

(A) The Dewey-Trostky Relation

In 1937, the “American Committee for the Defense of Leon Trotsky” elected Dewey honorary chairman, and then asked him to chair a preliminary commission to investigate Stalin’s charges. In the first two weeks of April, 1937, Dewey repeatedly visited Leon Trotsky's home in Coyoacan, Mexico and took testimony for his research. There were thirteen hearings at that same place (from April 10 to April 17, 1937). We will welcome papers that revisit the similarities and differences between Dewey and Trostky in order to argue some thesis that are of contemporary relevance. For example: are important lessons to be learned today for political philosophy from the historical dialogue between Trotsty and Dewey?

(B) The Dewey-Diego Rivera Relation

Diego Rivera was a prominent Mexican painter who was famous for his murals (which can be seen in Mexico City, Chapingo, Cuernavaca, San Francisco, Detroit, and New York City). The relationship between Rivera and Dewey has received little attention. We will solicit papers that explore this relationship from both a historical and philosophical point of view. In spite of their political disagreements, we will explor aspects of Rivera’s ideas and works of art that resonate with Dewey’s aesthetics or views of democracy.

Some of the most outstanding philosophers in the Spanish-speaking world, and by far the most important philosophers who have translated Dewey’s works are José Gaos, Samuel Ramos and Eugenio Imáz. What can we learn from examining closely the translations and related commentaries of these Mexican philosophers of Dewey’s work? What philosophical similarities and differences did they have with Dewey’s philosophy? Did they find in Dewey’s philosophy an alternative way of dealing with modern problems, such as dualisms, apart from their own proposals or those originating in Europe?

Dewey was the object of tributes (publications and conferences) and special honorary recognition by institutions in Latin America. There is a resurgence of interest of pragmatism in the Hispanic world. What are the key ideas that have made Dewey’s work and pragmatism attractive to the Hispanic world?

(D) Dewey, Mexican culture-education, and the Mexican revolution.

Dewey’s published remarks about his experiences in Mexico are very perceptive about cultural differences. He was very impressed with what he found, especially with the democratic nature of the educational reforms inspired by the Mexican Revolution. He wrote about the

“educational development is the rural schools… it signifies a revolution rather than renaissance. It is not only a revolution for Mexico, but in some respects one of the most important social experiments undertaken anywhere in the world.”[1]

Dewey’s Mexican students Moisés Sáenz and Rafael Ramírez, used Dewey’s philosophy as part of the post-revolutionary transformation of education. Dewey’s indirect role in Mexico is prominent in historical interpretations of twentieth-century Mexico. Mexico’s experience with Deweyan philosophy became an important political platform for reform projects in twentieth-century U.S. society. Papers about the importance of this tangled relationship between Latin America and the United States because of Dewey (his visits and ideas) are welcome. What was the impact of Dewey (and his students) on Mexican education after the Mexican revolution? Papers about the Deweyean conception of democracy and the Mexican revolution are also welcome. How to evaluate the Mexican (or any) revolution in light of Dewey’s philosophy? How is this different than the Marxist approach? What is the long lasting legacy of the Mexican revolution from the point of view of democracy?

EUROPEAN CONFERENCE ON AESTHETICS: “SOCIETIES IN CRISIS. EUROPE AND THE AESTHETIC CONCEPT”.

Thu, 27 May 2010 10:38:00 -0500

EUROPEAN CONFERENCE ON AESTHETICS: “SOCIETIES IN CRISIS. EUROPE AND THE AESTHETIC CONCEPT”.

Organised by: Dirección General de Bellas Artes y Bienes Culturales (General Directorate of Fine Arts and Cultural Assets) of the Ministry of Culture.

In collaboration with: The Department of Aesthetics and Art Theory of the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid.

Held: The National Prado Museum (Casón del Buen Retiro and Auditorium)

Dates: 10, 11 and 12 of November 2010. Mornings and Afternoons.

Core Concept of the Conference.

One of the important contributions made by Europe towards the foundation of Modernity was its conceptualization of the aesthetic experience and how it is connected to the value of freedom. Throughout this Modernity and the subsequent debate between Modernity and Post-Modernity, its contribution was central to thought on the profound changes occurring in the subject concept, to articulating certain utopian projects and to negative criticism of the systems of representations.

At this, the beginning of the twenty-first century, with the current situation of societies in crisis, we propose organising a European discussion forum to review the prevailing notions of the last decades: the politics and micro-politics of the systems of representation, transformation of aesthetic thought methodologies and visual studies, the structure of the artistic system and the review of artistic policies in order to construct the bases for possible new horizons.

Talks.

In addition to the six plenary lectures, there will be five talk forums. Each of these forums shall in turn be made up of twelve morning talks spread over the three days of the Conference.

The subject areas of these talks shall be as follows:

* History of Aesthetics [coordinated by Miguel Salmerón]
* Aesthetics and the History of Arts [coordinated by Patricia Mayayo].
* Political dimensión of Art [coordinated by Miguel Cereceda]
* Crisis, Criterion and Criticism [coordinated by Javier Fuentes Feo].
* Crisis in the Artistic System [coordinated by Lucía Bodas].

Presentation of Talks.

Talks may be presented from today’s date until 30 July 2010.

All talks sent shall be unpublished and shall not have been presented at previous Conferences.

The talks shall be 20 minutes long, followed by 15 minutes debate.

All talk proposals should be sent by e-mail to the following address: congreso.estetica@uam.es

The speaker’s name, postal address and contacty telephone number, and the panel for which the paper is presented should be clearly visible at the top of the proposal.

All talk proposals should have a title, five keywords, summary and brief curriculum vitae. The talk summary should have a minimum of 3000 (including spaces) and a máximum of 5000 characters.

All this material should be submited in Spanish or English.

When the proposals have been received, they will be studied by the Conference’s Scientific Committee and their choices will be notified by e-mail.

At the discretion of the Scientific Committee speakers may be informed that their talk has been programmed for a different panel to the one they requested.

Travel Grants.

The Ministry of Culture shall make thirty travel grants available which may be awarded by the Scientific Committee to any speaker who requires one.

The grants shall be 600€ for those who live outside Spain, and 400€ for those who live inside Spain but outside the Region of Madrid. Both these amounts are inclusive of tax.

Although initially it was anticipated that fifteen grants of each type would be awarded, the Scientific Committee reserves the right to distribute the grants differently for each case if so merited by the quality of the Project.

It must be clearly indicated at the top of the talk proposal if this grant is required, in which case a thorough curriculum vitae should be included along with the talk proposal.

Requesting a travel grant does not necessarily mean one will be awarded even if the talk has been chosen for the Conference.

Publication.

Presenting a talk at the Conference means foregoing the rights to publish it (either digitally or in print). If it goes ahead, the Scientific Committee shall decide which papers shall be published.

Information.

CONGRESO EUROPEO DE ESTÉTICA: “SOCIEDADES EN CRISIS. EUROPA Y EL CONCEPTO DE ESTÉTICA”.

Organiza: Dirección General de Bellas Artes y Bienes Culturales, Ministerio de Cultura.

Colabora: Área de Estética y Teoría de las Artes, Universidad Autónoma de Madrid.

Sede: Museo Nacional del Prado, [Aulas del Casón del Buen Retiro y Auditorio].

Fechas: 10, 11 y 12 de noviembre de 2010. Mañana y Tarde.

Núcleo Conceptual del Congreso

Una de las aportaciones culturales importantes que hizo Europa en la fundación de la Modernidad fue la conceptualización de la experiencia estética y su conexión con el valor de la libertad. A lo largo de esa misma Modernidad, y en el posterior debate entre la Modernidad y la Posmodernidad, sus aportaciones resultaron centrales en la reflexión sobre los profundos cambios que se producían en la configuración del sujeto, en la articulación de determinados proyectos utópicos y en la crítica negativa a los sistemas de representación.

En este comienzo del siglo XXI, en el estado actual de las sociedades en crisis, proponemos reunir un foro europeo de discusión para revisar el estado de las nociones predominantes en las últimas décadas: políticas y micropolíticas de los sistemas de representación, transformaciones en las metodologías del pensamiento estético y los estudios visuales, estructura del sistema artístico, y revisión de las políticas artísticas, a fin de intentar construir las bases para nuevos horizontes posibles.

Comunicaciones

Además de las seis conferencias plenarias se desarrollarán cinco foros de comunicaciones. Cada uno de esos foros constará, a su vez, de doce comunicaciones materiales repartidas durante los tres días que dure el Congreso.

Las áreas de comunicaciones serán las siguientes:

* Historia de la Estética [coordina Miguel Salmerón].
* Estética e Historia del Arte [coordina Patricia Mayayo].
* Dimensión Política del Arte [coordina Miguel Cereceda].
* Crisis, Criterio y Crítica [coordina Javier Fuentes Feo].
* Crisis del Sistema Artístico [coordina Lucía Bodas].

Presentación de Comunicaciones

Desde la presente fecha, y hasta el día 30 de julio de 2010, queda abierto el plazo para la presentación de comunicaciones.

Todas las Comunicaciones que se presenten deberán ser inéditas y no habrán sido presentadas con anterioridad en otros Congresos.

La duración de las comunicaciones será de 20 minutos, más 15 minutos de debate.

Todas las propuestas de comunicación se enviarán por correo electrónico a la siguiente dirección: congreso.estética@uam.es.

En la parte superior del mismo se hará constar, de un modo claro y visible, el nombre, la dirección postal del ponente y un teléfono de contacto, así como el panel para el cual se presenta la comunicación.

Todas las propuestas de comunicación constarán de un título, de cinco palabras clave, de un resumen y de un breve currículo vital. El resumen de la comunicación tendrá una extensión mínima de 3000 caracteres [espacios incluidos] y máxima de 5000.

Todo este material podrá ser remitido en castellano e inglés.

Una vez las propuestas hayan sido recibidas, serán estudiadas por el Comité Científico del Congreso que, vía correo electrónico, informará de cuales han sido seleccionadas.

De considerarlo oportuno, el Comité Científico podrá informar a los ponentes de que su comunicación ha sido programada para un panel diferente del solicitado.

Bolsas de Viaje

El Ministerio de Cultura habilita 30 Bolsas de viaje, que serán asignadas por el Comité Científico del Congreso a aquellos ponentes que las requieran.

La cantidad de las mismas será de 600€ para aquellos que residan fuera del Estado Español y de 400€ para aquellos que lo hagan dentro del mismo pero fuera de la Comunidad de Madrid. Ambas cantidades impuestos incluidos.

Aunque inicialmente se prevé la asignación de 15 bolsas de cada tipo, el comité científico se reserva el derecho de hacer una distribución diferente en caso de que la calidad de los proyectos así lo requiera.

En la parte superior de la propuesta de comunicación se especificará claramente que se quiere solicitar esta ayuda, en cuyo caso se incluirá, junto con la propuesta de la comunicación, un curriculum vitae extenso.

La petición de la Bolsa de viaje no implica necesariamente su concesión, aunque la comunicación haya sido seleccionada para el Congreso.

Publicación

La presentación de una comunicación durante el Congreso supone la cesión de los derechos de la misma para una posible publicación (digital o impresa). En caso de llevarse a cabo, será el Comité Científico el que decida qué ponencias serán publicadas.

7th International Conference on Design & Emotion, Chicago

October 4-7, 2010

http://www.id.iit.edu/de2010/

Hosted by IIT Institute of Design

The 7th International Conference on Design & Emotion in Chicago, October 4-7, 2010 calls for your participation. This Conference is a forum held every other year where practitioners, researchers and industry leaders meet and exchange knowledge and insights concerning the cross-disciplinary field of design and emotion. The conference calls for your contribution to this exciting international forum of research and practice representing academic, design and business communities.

Full Papers, Short Papers (Posters) and Design Cases

D&E Conference invites practitioners and researchers to submit research papers and design cases. Submissions addressing issues of Design & Emotion are invited from extended communities beyond design studies, such as computer science, HCI, psychology, cognitive science, social science, humanities, engineering, health sciences, marketing and business. Detailed guidelines for proposal authoring are available on the conference website.

Full Papers are expected to contribute widely applicable long-lasting knowledge to the discipline. Accepted papers will be presented in the conference program and published in the proceedings. The paper length is a maximum of 12 pages (approximately 4,000-5,000 words plus figures and tables) in the specified format.

Short Papers (Posters) are expected to describe research that is more appropriate for the interactive poster session. The paper length should be a maximum of 5 pages (approximately 2,000 words plus figures and tables) and an additional page containing a full-page image of the poster in the specified format for the publication in the conference proceedings. The first submission requires a short paper manuscript without the poster page.

Design cases are invited for submission to present design projects that address issues and insights in design and emotion, communicate and discuss your approach to enhance emotional effects. Design case submissions must include a summary description in a maximum of 5 pages (approximately 2,000 words) in the specified format and a maximum of 30 slides illustrating the design, design process and use.

Call for Special Topic Sessions: Topics and Papers

Special Topic Sessions focus on specific emerging areas of research and practical interest concerning Design and Emotion. The topic proposal deadline for special topic sessions is February 15, 2010. The deadline for submission of full paper and design cases is March 15, 2001.

(See the detail on the conference website.)

Call for workshops

Researchers, educators and practitioners are invited to submit proposals for workshops. Workshops will be held on October 4, 2010 prior to the main program of the conference. The purpose is to provide a platform for presenting and discussing novel ideas and emerging issues in a less formal and possibly more focused way than the conference itself. The format of each workshop is to be determined by the organizers, but each workshop is expected to include ample time for general discussion.

Submission and Review Process

Submission and review processes will be handled by our conference system. All submissions will have a blind review process with at least two reviewers. All submissions accepted in the second review will be asked to submit the final manuscripts in the camera-ready format. The detailed authoring guideline is available at the conference website.

Topics

Design & Emotion is the overarching theme of the conference. This year, the conference adds a particular focus on Design & Emotion in emerging societal issues of our lives and living environments. Another focus is on strategic roles of Design & Emotion in business. The areas of these foci include fundamental research into Design & Emotion that further enhances our intellectual foundation as well as the emotional aspects of the following topic areas:

The Conference Motto: Blatantly Blues

Chicago is the home of the Blues. The Blues expresses the emotional journey of our life experience. Sorrow and joy, desire and apathy, agony and comfort, and love and despair are woven into the colorful sounds of the Blues. Things and events in our life always have multiple meanings and multiple emotional responses and so do the Blues. The 7th International Conference on Design and Emotion calls for rich discourse on a full spectrum of complex emotional experiences and their implications to Design. During the conference, you will also have opportunities for emotional experiences with the Chicago Blues.

Expression and the Inner: 6th Inter-University Workshop on Mind, Art, and Morality

Wed, 02 Dec 2009 18:39:00 -0600

Expression and the Inner: 6th Inter-University Workshop on Mind, Art, and Morality
April 8 - 10, 2010, University of Oviedo
The workshop: The Inter-University Workshop on Mind, Art and Morality promotes the relation among different areas of philosophy; more specifically, the Workshop aims at exploring those issues where ethical, aesthetical and the philosophy of mind’s discussion topics converge and interweave. In former editions, the Workshop has been devoted either to the work of the philosophers Richard Wollheim, Jonathan Dancy, Christine Korsgaard, Shaun Nichols or to broad subjects such as the Philosophy of Music (with the presence of Peter Kivy, Noël Carroll or Derek Matravers). In this occasion, the Workshop will receive David H. Finkelstein who will present his recent research on first-person authority.

Contributed Papers: We invite philosophers and other scholars interested in discussing these or other related topics to join the Workshop, for an exchange of ideas on these subjects. Contributions focused on David Finkelstein’s book are especially encouraged, but papers on any aspect of the first-person authority, self-knowledge, expression, conscious and unconscious states, are also welcome. Papers should be about 15 pages long (5000 words), to be presented in 40 minutes maximum, and to allow 20 minutes discussion. Extended abstracts, of about 2000 words, will also be accepted for review.

Submission deadline: February 1, 2010

Third Annual Philosophy and the Arts Conference at Stony Brook Manhattan

Wed, 02 Dec 2009 18:21:00 -0600

Third Annual Philosophy and the Arts Conference at Stony Brook Manhattan
March 26-27, 2010
Keynote Speaker – Dr. Simon Critchley
Chair of Philosophy at the New School for Social Research

The Masters program in Philosophy and the Arts at Stony Brook University in Manhattan studies the intersections of art and philosophy. In our efforts to further the dialogue between these complexly related fields, we offer this conference as an interdisciplinary event. We welcome participants working in a variety of disciplines and media to respond to this year’s topic:

“Collectively”

During a period marked by globalization, proliferating social networking sites and virtual forums, and a reissued political call for increased civic participation, investigating the nature of ‘the collective’ continues to be a vitally important project. The term ‘collective’ itself is heavily politicized, foregrounding the tension between the individual and the whole. While groups may capitalize upon collective force to secure political visibility and achieve goals, collectivization is often a vehicle of homogenization and silencing. Yet many collectives intentionally jeopardize individual visibility as a form of critique. Artists’ collectives like the Critical Art Ensemble and the Wooster Collective, and philosophical collaboratives such as Deleuze-Guattari, question the value of the singular and identifiable, as well as problematizing the market economy that sustains artistic and academic norms. In any case, the notion of the collective raises questions of authority and agency as they relate to knowledge, ownership, and intersubjectivity. What are the mechanisms through which collectives form, maintain their coherence, and engage with other entities? How do various types of collections—museum holdings, units of information, digital and material objects, or persons—relate to classificatory systems, globalized and virtual commerce, and rapidly evolving technologies?

As collectives arise and disperse, we often find ourselves with a dearth of criteria by which to judge their success and viability. This conference will investigate the forms, motivations, methods, justifications, and consequences of persons and things acting collectively. We encourage submissions from across the artistic and theoretical disciplines that approach these themes from practical and theoretical perspectives. Projects may be collaborative in nature, and may examine the collective as an entity or activity.

SUBMISSIONS:

We welcome the submission both of original academic papers and of artwork for exhibition or performance, relating to the above themes, from graduate students across disciplines. All submissions should be formatted for blind review, and suitable for a 20-minute presentation. Please visit click on the appropriate link below for complete submission instructions. All submissions must be received by January 13th, 2010 in order to be considered by the conference review committee. Submitters will be notified of the committee’s decision regarding their work via email no later than February 4th, 2010.

The conference will take place on Friday March 26th and Saturday March 27th at Stony Brook Manhattan, 401 Park Ave. South. Feel free to contact the conference coordinator for help with additional questions at philosophyartconference@gmail.com.
