Mini-Workshop on Policy-Relevant Philosophy of Science
Location: Ludwigstr. 31, ground floor, Room 021.
05.02.2025 16:00 – 20:00
Idea & Motivation:
This mini-workshop is a first step to discuss our work-in-progress on various policy-relevant issues in philosophy of science and on philosophical analyses of policy-relevant sciences (including health and climate science, the social sciences and economics, and perhaps also computer science and AI). The purpose of the workshop is to gather philosophers (of science) at the MCMP and LMU to explore the potential of such issues and to exchange ideas.
