    Jean Piaget archives: research and teaching applications

    La fondation Archives Jean Piaget organise, dans le cadre de ses missions scientifiques, un séminaire interdisciplinaire où des spécialistes sont invités à aborder, sous l’angle de leur discipline respective, une question relevant des thématiques qui furent celle de l’œuvre de Piaget. La règle du jeu veut que chaque orateur mette en perspective l’approche contemporaine de sa discipline ou spécialité avec celle développée par Piaget afin d’en souligner les points communs et les divergences. L’éventail des disciplines va de la psychologie à la neuropsychologie et la psychiatrie en passant par les sciences de l’éducation, les neurosciences, la philosophie ou encore la théologie.

    Philosophy and its History– a Contemporary Debate

    2016 Symposium of the Swiss Philosophical Society (SPS)

    Since the end of the 1980s, the relation of philosophy to its own history features prominently in the discussions concerning the nature and method of philosophy. What can philosophy do with its history? as Gianni Vattimo asked in 1989 in his book bearing the same title. Influenced by continental philosophers like Foucault or Collingwood, a so-called “relativist” position emerged from the works of Alain de Libera and Kurt Flasch, in opposition to a ‘continuist’ position (Claude Panaccio, Pascal Engel) having its source in great figures from the analytic tradition like Peter Strawson, Donald Davidson, or Michael Dummett. These debates stimulated and renewed the interest of the philosophical community for metaphilosophical and methodological questions. The 2016Symposium of the Swiss Philosophical Society will go further in this direction, bringing history back to the forefront of the philosophical scene.
