International Conference

The Vienna Circle and Logical Empiricism. Research and Historiography

Campus der Universität Wien
Ian Ehm

About the conference

Research and publications on the Vienna Circle and Logical Empiricism are growing and flourishing for decades. On the occassion of the 35th anniversary of the Institute Vienna Circle and 90 years after the assassination of Moritz Schlick, the founder of the Vienna Circle, it seems reasonable to critically assess and re-evaluate the scholarly output on the history and influence of the Vienna Circle as a collective as well as of its individual members. The aim of this conference is to focus on added values and novelties in research and publications as well as from the perspective of theoretical sustainability. A special attention is laid on archival sources with new results and on completed and running research projects dealing with Carnap, Gödel, Neurath, and Schlick, in addition to gender and migration studies.
