Dear all:
Thanks Hasok for notice of the integrated history and philosophy of
science conference.
But argh:
this conflicts directly with the Brit Soc Phil Sci 2018 meeting in Oxford
on July 4th-6 2018.
Maybe the luminaries in charge can liaise and shift one of them?
Anyway: list members will want to know that the Brit Soc Phil Sci is
accepting symposium proposals for the 2018 meeting in Oxford. The deadline
is 5 January, a month from now.
details are at:

Dear all,
The 7th international conference on Integrated HPS will take place in Hannover
on 5-7 July 2018 (jointly sponsored by the Max Planck Institute for the History
of Science). It's is a good chance to catch this meeting not far from here.
Unlike previous conferences in this series, there will be poster sessions as
well as talks, so the probability of acceptance will also be higher.
The deadline for abstracts is coming up soon, on 15 December. See below for
further details.
best,

The Evolution of Knowledge
&HPS7: Integrated History and Philosophy of Science, 7th conference
Leibniz Universität Hannover, Hannover, Germany, July 5-7, 2018
Call for papers and posters
The Committee for Integrated HPS and the Max Planck Institute for the History of
Science invite the submission of individual paper and poster abstracts for ?The
Evolution of Knowledge/&HPS7?, the 7th conference in the series Integrated History
and Philosophy of Science. We seek contributions that genuinely integrate the
historical and philosophical analysis of science (i.e., the physical sciences, life
sciences, cognitive sciences, and social sciences), or discuss methodological issues
surrounding the prospects and challenges of integrating history and philosophy of
science. (For information about &HPS and previous conferences, see
http://integratedhps.org/en/)
The theme "evolution of knowledge" aims at refocusing the history and
philosophy of science on long-term and global aspects. In recent years the history of
science has increasingly transcended micro-histories paying attention to global contexts
and long-term developments. What are the implications of this widened focus for
philosophical and theoretical reflections on science and knowledge? What can such broader
studies of macro and global history in turn learn from philosophical and theoretical
investigations? The organizers especially, but not exclusively, welcome contributions
dealing with such questions in the hope to create a novel ground for fruitful encounters
between the philosophy and the history of science.
Please note that &HPS7 does not run parallel sessions. Hence, given the number
of slots available, we regret that we cannot accept symposia submissions.
&HPS7 will feature a Poster Forum as a place to share work that fits in a
poster format.
All proposals for papers should contain a title and a long abstract (between
700 and 1000 words). Proposals for posters should also contain a title and an
abstract. The maximum poster abstract length is 500 words, including any
references. To submit, please prepare your abstracts of papers and posters for
blind review and save your abstract as a PDF file. PLEASE INDICATE AT THE TOP
OF YOUR SUBMISSION WHETHER IT IS FOR A PAPER OR A POSTER
We have an ongoing commitment to fostering diversity and equality in our
programs. Submissions from members of underrepresented groups are particularly
welcome!
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=hps7
Deadline for submission of paper and poster abstracts: December 15, 2017
Date of notification: February 15, 2018
The allocated time for delivering contributed papers at the conference will be
40 minutes, including discussion.
Funds to assist with the cost of travel and accommodation for scholars presenting
work at &HPS7 will be available.
