Congress: Criticism and reconciliation
Anthology "Criticism & Reconciliation" published
Contributions in the melee of critical theory:
We are pleased to draw your attention to the volume "Kritik und Versöhnung - Beiträge im Handgemenge Kritischer Theorie", which has just been published. The contributions are based on lectures given and discussed by advanced students and young academics at the "Critique and Reconciliation" congress that we organised at the University of Oldenburg in January 2015.
The contributions approach the relationship between the concepts of critique and reconciliation as well as the analysis of the social conditions constituting this relationship in a very diverse way, but at the same time promote the congress's aim of countering the marginalisation of critical theory at universities. In this respect, the congress can also be understood as an initiative of the political work of the student body of philosophy in Oldenburg. In addition to an introduction and a commentary, the volume contains a total of 18 essays as well as an appendix that introduces the authors and documents the congress weekend (mainly in the form of photographs). In addition to the specialist lectures, there was also a supporting programme of literary texts and music.
To give you a more detailed impression, you can have a look at the abstracts of the contributions. We would of course be very pleased if you are interested in our volume. If you would like to purchase a copy of the volume for € 19.80, you can do so on Amazon, directly via BIS-Verlag or by contacting us at .
For those on a tight budget, the texts are also available online free of charge. The anthology can also be borrowed from the Oldenburg University Library and numerous other libraries.
With best regards
the editorial team Jaro Ehlers, Ulrich Mathias Gerr, Eike Köhler, Martin Vialon & Steffen Stolzenberger

Congress of the student body Philosophy: Critique and Reconciliation 2015
Dear friends of philosophy,
We are still working enthusiastically on our congress.
The theme is Critique and Reconciliation and the guiding question is to what extent critique must necessarily precede reconciliation and whether, in a world in which (radical) critique seems to be undesirable, reconciliation can/must nevertheless be necessary and possible.
Now that the call for papers has ended and we had to select 20 out of 50 applicants, the planning of the programme is entering the hot phase. You can still find more information on the congress homepage.
And you can also keep up to date with the 'Critique and Reconciliation' event via STUD.IP.
Direct contact by email is available at:
Call for Papers (closed)
Dear friends of philosophy,
We can tell you with enthusiasm that we, the student body (council) of Philosophy, are organising our own congress next January.
The theme is Critique and Reconciliation and the central question is to what extent critique must necessarily precede reconciliation and whether, in a world in which (radical) critique seems to be undesirable, reconciliation can/must nevertheless be necessary and possible.
The Call for Papers has just been launched, which you can find on the congress homepage along with other information.
We look forward to receiving your abstracts and are already looking forward to your participation in the congress from 16 - 17 January 2015 at
.
And you can also keep up to date with the 'Critique and Reconciliation' event via STUD.IP.
