The Group
Childpage navigation
The collaborators at this Chair for Philosophy at the ETH Zürich are concerned above all with themes in theoretical philosophy. (For more information about the other Chair for Philosophy click here.) Many of the themes being dealt with are closely tied to questions concerning the significance of modern science and technology for human life. The goal of the research group is to produce philosophically relevant research that will be of importance not only to professional philosophy, but also to other scientific and non-scientific disciplines.
The Chair for Philosophy also participates in the exchange programme "Knowledge in Society" with the Cohen Institute of the University of Tel Aviv. And is in close cooperation with the D-GESS Chairs for Science Studies, History of Technology, History and Philosophy of Mathematical Sciences and the Professorship for Practical Philosophy.
