Tra l’1 e il 6 settembre 2011 a Milano presso l’Università Vita-Salute San Raffaele si svolgerà la settima edizione del Congresso Europeo di Filosofia Analitica (ECAP – European Congress of Analytic Philosophy). Il programma prevede anche una lecture promossa dalla Fondazione Giannino Bassetti.

Infatti, oltre ad essere sponsor dell’evento, la Fondazione da deciso di organizzare la propria lecture annuale, in seno a un importante evento internazionale come l’ECAP 7.

Dan Sperber (Jean Nicod Institute, Paris & International Cognition and Cultural Institute), il giorno 3 settembre 2011 alle ore 13.00 nella lecture dal titolo The Deconstruction of Social Unreality attaccherà senza mezzi termini le teorie di John Searle: “John Searle has famously argued (in particular in The Construction of Social Reality and Making the Social World) that social fact exist in virtue of being collectively recognized. In this talk, I deconstruct Searle’s social ontology and outline an alternative“.

La lecture si svolgerà nell’aula Caravella Santa Maria (piano -1 del Dibit 1) dell’Università Vita-Salute San Raffaele in Via Olgettina, 58.

ECAP 7 ha lo scopo di stabilire contatti e incoraggiare la collaborazione tra i filosofi analitici europei e prevede:
