CfP: 9th Congress of the Society for the Philosophy of Science

The 9th Congress of the Society for the Philosophy of Science (SPS, https://www.sps-philoscience.org/). University of Paris Nanterre (France). May 31. - June 2. 2023

The proposed theme for the 2023 edition of the Congress is “Gender and science” 

(for example, contributions can be about the status of women in scientific practice, criticisms of bias in science, objectivity and feminism, the naturalization of sexual difference, etc.)

But note that, this year like in previous editions, any proposal for a contribution relating to the philosophy of science broadly conceived will be examined.

Also note that the congress will give rise to a publication in the form of a special issue of the online journal Lato Sensu.
