Feministische Logik an der Ruhr-Uni Bochum
Und wieder sinkt das Akademische noch tiefer.
August 29–30, 2025: Workshop on Feminist Logic
Information
Feminist Logic is a relatively new but upcoming area of study. Work in this field sheds light on sexist (and other) biases in the area of logic. This is a very broad conception but it captures the diversity of the area of Feminist Logic. More specifically, Feminist Logic can mean…
- … to use logical tools for feminist ends, e.g., to uncover biases in arguments or to model social hierarchies to make patriarchal structures explicit,
- … to look at the history of logic from a feminist perspective, e.g., by revealing so far disregarded contributions by female logicians and exposing exclusionary practices that led to their invisibility,
- … to consider teaching practices in logic and how those disadvantage certain underrepresented groups,
- … to devise, revise and/or argue for logical systems from a distinctly feminist perspective, e.g., certain logical systems may seem better or worse suited for formalizing feminist arguments.
This workshop aims at sharing and discussing the latest research in this area by bringing together both highly distinguished as well as early career researchers.
Please note: The conference is currently planned to be held as an in-person event. We will try to make at least a minimal passive participation possible, which would mean that online participants can follow the talks but not the discussion etc. online via Zoom.
Heißt im Klartext: Sie haben kein bisschen Ahnung davon, was Logik ist. Reine Geschwätzakrobatik und Diskriminiertheitsgefasel.
Aber für deutsche Universitäten reicht es offenbar. Und nun wisst Ihr auch, warum die Geisteswissenschaftler von den USA nach Deutschland umziehen wollen/sollen. Während Musk übrigens gerade dafür plädiert, dass Deutsche, wie was können, problemlos in den USA arbeiten können sollen.
Viel Spaß!
