ECREA SECTION PHILOSOPHY OF COMMUNICATION'S INAUGURAL MEETING

The Philosophy of Communication Section of ECREA was established in the fall of 2006. We aim to provide a European platform for a wide range of research interests at the intersection of philosophy, communication studies and communication theory. The founders and current board members, Prof. Dr. Colin Grant (Surrey), Vice-Chair Dr. Tino Meitz (Essen/London) and Vice-Chair Dr. Johan Siebers (London/Lancashire) invite all members and prospective members to a one-day inaugural meeting, to be held on 2 March 2007, at the University of Central Lancashire, Preston, United Kingdom.

The main objective of the meeting will be to discuss and agree on the Section's objectives and modus operandi and plan activities for the coming year. Two documents, outlining our ideas about what we want to do and how, have been prepared by the Board. They can be downloaded from our website (www.philosophy-of-communication.eu).

We are currently organising a conference on "Landmarks - at the crossroads; contemporary communication theory and philosophy", to be held in November at the University of Surrey, Guildford, UK. The conference will be on the agenda as well.

The meeting will take place in the morning, and will be followed by an informal afternoon symposium on Paradigms in the Philosophy of Communication. The symposium consists of a number of short presentations and a plenary panel discussion. The aim of the symposium is to provide an overview of current fundamental approaches and themes in the philosophy of communication, and to discuss desired future developments. Those interested in submitting an abstract for a presentation (15 mins. max) are encouraged to do so by 9 February, to mailto:johan.siebers@sas.ac.uk. Please also contact Johan Siebers for any general information.
