SUMMARY:7th Summer School​ in Political Philosophy ​and Public Policy
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1657019492801{margin-top: 30px !important;margin-bottom: 30px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1657031873153{margin-bottom: 50px !important;}”] \nExploring the Commons\n18-20 July 2016\n​University of Minho\, Braga – Portugal\n​ \n\nIn recent years there has been a resurgence of interest in issues at the intersection of political philosophy and public policy. In particular\, attention has increasingly turned to the question of what kind of institutions and policies would be needed in order to create a significantly more just society. Following past summer-schools on topics such as a basic income (2013)\, predistribution and property-owning democracy (2014)\, the ethics of banking (2015)\, this year’s summer school will be devoted to the commons. The topic of the “commons” is an expanding issue of interest within academia\, where it combines different and complementary disciplines (philosophy\, history\, law\, political science\, economy\, …). It is also a very important discussion outside academia. The “commons” is a social space where people can enter and leave freely; in which they relate as equals; and in which they work cooperatively\, to solve a problem\, meet a need\, or just enjoy creativity for its own sake. In this school we will explore the ways in which society has a strong responsibility to protect a sufficient commons and to ensure that anyone holding an asset removed from the commons pays compensation to everyone else. \n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Visite Event Website” shape=”square” color=”danger” align=”center” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fcommonsexplore.weebly.com%2F”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:BRAGA COLLOQUIUM  IN THE HISTORY OF MORAL AND POLITICAL PHILOSOPHY
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1657019492801{margin-top: 30px !important;margin-bottom: 30px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1705432562741{margin-bottom: 50px !important;}”] \nBRAGA COLLOQUIUM  IN THE HISTORY OF MORAL AND POLITICAL PHILOSOPHY\n“Representation\, the People\, and Political Leadership”\n\nUniversity of Minho Braga – Portugal\n14-15 January 2016 \nKeynote speaker\nNadia Urbinati (Columbia University)\nhttp://bragacolloquium.weebly.com \n\nCall for papers\nThe Political Theory Group of the University of Minho is delighted to announce the inaugural event of the Braga Colloquium in the History of Moral and Political Philosophy: an international annual conference to be held every year in January at the University of Minho in Braga\, Portugal. The purpose of this new conference series is to promote the study of the tradition of political and moral philosophy and its legacy in shaping our institutions\, culture and beliefs. In this important respect\, the conference series will focus on how this tradition can contribute to tackling the challenges our societies are facing today. Every year the conference will focus on a specific theme\, which will be chosen by taking in consideration the current political situation in Europe (and beyond).\nIn line with the spirit behind this new series of conferences\, the first edition of the Braga Colloquium in the History of Moral and Political Philosophy will be dedicated to explore the ideas of “representation”\, “the people”\, and “political leadership”. Since Thomas Hobbes\, we have come to understand that the idea of the ‘sovereign people’\, and its expression by the state through the idea of representation\, is a fiction that makes possible the collective exercise of power on the large scale of modern states. Modern thinkers such as Locke\, Montesquieu\, Rousseau\, the Federalists\, Burke\, and Weber or\, more recently\, Pitkin\, Habermas\, Rawls\, Arendt\, or Pettit\, have offered a rich panoply of ways of constructing such a fiction. But also in the ancient tradition of\, say\, Plato\, Aristotle\, Cicero\, or Marsilius of Padua\, when the question of ‘representation’ was still not explicitly thematized\, we can find suggestive insights to think about this topic. Importantly\, these different fictional accounts of ‘the sovereign people’ yield different political outcomes\, different forms of state\, different forms of political participation\, different relationships between the people and their political representatives\, and so on. At the same time\, each of these fictions are based on some critical assumptions regarding\, for instance\, the capacities needed to engage in politics and how they are distributed among the people\, the source of political authority\, the level of (in)commensurability between different worldviews\, what it means to represent in political terms\, and so on. \nThe deep crisis of representative institutions in Europe’s and the concomitant rise of new (or supposedly new) forms of populism have made it absolutely urgent to reassess how we articulate the relationship between our ideas of ‘representation’\, ‘the people’\, and ‘political leadership’\, in particular taking into consideration which political outcomes our conceptions engender and on which political assumptions they are based.  We invite scholars interested in these topics to propose papers that interrogate the history of moral and political thought?ancient\, modern\, and contemporary?in order to illuminate our current predicament. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:6th Summer School​ in Political Philosophy ​and Public Policy
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1657019492801{margin-top: 30px !important;margin-bottom: 30px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1657105569964{margin-bottom: 50px !important;}”] \nThe Ethics of Banking\n20-23 July 2015\n​University of Minho\, Braga – Portugal\n​ \n\n In recent years there has been a resurgence of interest in issues at the intersection of political philosophy and public policy. In particular\, attention has increasingly turned to the question of what kind of institutions and policies would be needed in order to create a significantly more just society. This summer school will be devoted to the ethics of banking. The first topic will be devoted to recent financial history\, ethical issues that have arisen\, problems of moral hazard\, contagion effects\, etc. This is basically centered around the question of what the function of finance is in society\, or what it should be. A second topic will focus on various players in the industry and their respective ethical issues: banks\, central banks\, insurance companies\, etc. We’ll look at things such as insider trading\, and debate the (i)morality of it\, and/or such practices as frontrunning\, churning\, etc. Still another topic will be devoted to Professor Boudewijn de Bruin’s own research on epistemic virtues\, debating the claim that ethics in finance ought to be sensitive to competence issues rather than (just) on greed or bonuses. We’ll look into corporate epistemic virtues\, rotation policies\, organizational opposition\, credit rating agencies\, and the way they outsource epistemic responsibility. A final topic on ethics management tools will be included as well\, focusing on recent initiatives surrounding the bankers’ oath in the Netherlands\, etc. \n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Visite Event Website” shape=”square” color=”danger” align=”center” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fbankingethics.weebly.com%2F”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:5th Summer School​ in Political Philosophy ​and Public Policy
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1657019492801{margin-top: 30px !important;margin-bottom: 30px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1657105812423{margin-bottom: 50px !important;}”] \nPredistribution and Property-Owning Democracy\n14-18 July 2014\n​University of Minho\, Braga – Portugal\n​ \n\nIn recent years there has been a resurgence of interest in issues at the intersection of political philosophy and public policy. In particular\, attention has increasingly turned to the question of what kind of institutions and policies would be needed in order to create a significantly more just society. \nContemporary circumstances of rising inequality and severe austerity add to the urgency of thinking creatively\, in a philosophically-informed way\, about alternative economic arrangements. Initiatives such as Occupy have protested the apparent lack of political imagination in response to the financial crisis and its consequences\, underscoring the need to consider and explore alternatives. \nThis summer school will examine one broad current of thinking about alternatives associated with the idea of “predistribution”. It will look in particular at John Rawls’s idea of a “property-owning democracy”; at the relationship between strategies of “predistribution” and “redistribution”; and at specific policy proposals such as universal basic income\, basic capital\, and models of “high road” capitalism. A key issue to consider will be whether predistribution strategy can be thought of primarily in terms of  “human capital”\, jobs\, and wages or needs also to encompass productive and financial assets (and\, if so\, in what ways). A further issue to be explored is the trade-off between equality and efficiency in the different social arrangements of a property-owning democracy\, a basic income guarantee\, and the traditional welfare state. \n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Visite Event Website” shape=”square” color=”danger” align=”center” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fpredistributionschool.weebly.com%2F”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

What are the strengths and weaknesses of these arguments? How successfully do they meet the main ethical objections to basic income\, including the objection\, itself derivable from within currents of socialist\, liberal and republican thought\, that basic income is unfair because it allows some who are able to work to live off the labour of their fellow citizens?\nLectures by Stuart White will be followed by presentations from participants. \n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Visite Event Website” shape=”square” color=”danger” align=”center” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fbasicincomeschool.weebly.com%2F”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
