Visits from new EU countries
The Royal Institute of Philosophy continues its scheme to support academic visits each year to British university departments of philosophy by excellent philosophers at any stage of their career from the new European Union member states.
We hope that these visits will promote further British philosophical ties with the visitors and their colleagues to complement existing links between British and Western European philosophers.
In 2011, Professor Tadeusz Szubka, Head of the Institute of Philosophy at Szczecin University in Poland, will visit the University of Birmingham. Nenad Miscevic, professor of philosophy at the University of Maribor, Slovenia, and visiting professor at the Central European University, Budapest, will visit York. Both visits are planned for October and November 2011, and public lectures, research seminars and co-operation on research projects are in the works.
Past Visits
2010: Dr. Pawel Lukow of the University of Warsaw visited the University of East Anglia, and Professor Szuszanna Kondor of the Institute of Philosophy, Hungarian Academy of Sciences, visited Cardiff.
