ERINN 2024Palazzo Giustinian Lolin, VeniceRuns from Monday, June 03 to Tuesday, June 04. The ERINN (Economic Research on Identity Norms and Narratives) Network brings together committed researchers who share a common vision concerning the centrality of social forces – particularly identity, norms, and narratives – in shaping economic outcomes. The basic premise is that economic activity takes place in social contexts, which structure and co-determine people’s preferences, beliefs, and constraints. The role of this network of researchers is to bring these processes to the forefront of economic analysis. ERINN will be hosting this year's annual conference in the University of Warwick's home in Venice. Date: Monday 3 June - Tuesday 4 June 2024

Export as iCalendarHeidegger Reading Group
Online onlyHeidegger turns Gadamer in this term: You are warmly invited to join the Heidegger Reading Group where we in this term read Hans-Georg Gadamer’s “Truth and Method” (1960).
Every Monday, 7.15-8.45 pm, online only.
For meeting details and the reading schedule, email fridolin.neumann@warwick.ac.uk.
Guided by Haley’s expertise, we will work through the entire book in this term. Gadamer is one of Heidegger's most influential students, not just in philosophy but in the humanities more generally (social thought, medical humanities, law, aesthetics, etc.). By way of outline, Gadamer's text is concerned with defending humanistic truth, and he achieves this by looking at three places this truth shows up in human life: aesthetics, history, and conversation. “Truth and Method” is, then, relevant to those of us concerned with epistemology, aesthetics, history as a philosophical topic (beginning with Kant and Hegel), philosophy of language, and ontology.
