>> Table of Contents

>> Preface by Raúl Fornet-Betancourt

>> Review by Mary E. Hunt

In this book, you will find keys of fundamental importance for understanding our current human coexistence and our hegemonic civilisation from life experiences that carry within themselves the ethical and gnoseological potentialities that we need to activate in order to give breadth and depth to our own unique lives as individuals and to that ‘common home’ that the world should be. So, for us today, this is a book that we need both on a theoretical and practical level.

It can be seen as a community manifesto that makes it clear that ‘another academic community is possible’ and that it is possible precisely as a community that stands as a historical, corporate reality, responding to the isolation, fragmentation and disembodiment of intellectual life that cognitive capitalism is trying to impose today.

THANK YOU to the authors of the book for the gift of this manifesto.

[from the Preface by Raúl Fornet-Betancourt]

We are pleased to announce that two new titles are about to be released in the CONCORDIA series:

La interculturalidad

entre los mundos de la vida y la civilización capitalista.

(Concordia. Reihe Monographien. vol. 77),

Wissenschaftsverlag Mainz, Aachen 2026

ISBN: 978-3-95886-550-1

>> Introduction

>> Inhalt/Índice/Sommaire/Contents

Today, we live in a global, capitalist, and mechanistic civilisation. But there are also cultures of peoples who care for organic ways of inhabiting the earth.

However, as the current global situation shows, these two worldviews and ways of life coexist in historical conditions that exacerbate the structural violence of the capitalist model of civilisation and, with it, the asymmetry in their coexistence.

Tackling this conflict, the reflections presented in this book attempt to show that Intercultural Philosophy, as a philosophy rooted in the organicity of life, must today challenge mechanism in its levelling of the diversity of the world, while at the same time accompanying humanity in the historical intercultural unfolding of its worlds of life.

REPORTS

XVth International Congress of Intercultural Philosophy

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Santiago de Chile, from 24 to 27 of April 2024

Cultures, world, civilization: between colonization and liberation - this was the theme of the XV International Congress of Intercultural Philosophy, which took place from 25-27 April 2024 in Santiago de Chile and was organized by the EIFI (Aachen/Barcelona) together with the Federico Santa María Technical University, Santiago de Chile, the State University of Santiago de Chile, the Catholic University of Temuco, and the Catholic University of the North.

Numerous philosophers from different countries came to Santiago de Chile to explore ways in which the current civilizational order, which threatens to destroy and replace the many places in the world of humanity, can be reversed and steered towards a solidary coexistence of humanity. The joint work was rounded off with a panel for retrospective critical evaluation.

Lorena Zuchel, who was responsible for the organizational team in Chile, provides an insight into this intercontinental exchange of experiences in her report, which will be published in the upcoming number 86 of Concordia. International Journal of Philosophy. Like all events in this series, this congress will also be documented in a conference volume, which will contain all presentations in full. The book will be available soon.

Meeting of the "Network of Young Researchers"

Prague, 22 and 23 November 2024

A few weeks ago, the third edition of the Network of Young Researchers promoted by EIFI was concluded. After Barcelona and Vienna, the enchanting city of Prague was the host city.

The idea of these meetings originated from the desire of Raul Fornet-Betancourt and Bianca Boteva-Richter to create a space for discussion and support for young researchers whose situatedness, of body and thought, belongs to the Central and Eastern European area, or who are involved in dialogue with and between the different souls of Europe. The common thread that connects the different research is the use of an intercultural approach and methodology, which promotes the development of critical trajectories of thought of the reductionisms of the Western philosophical tradition, and at the same time open and inclusive of the multiplicity of the world's philosophies, analysing their places of tension and intersection.

In Prague, the group was the guest of the Department of Political Philosophy and Global Studies of the Czech Academy of Sciences, with which a fruitful and interesting collaboration was born. Key elements of the meeting were the variety and philosophical depth of the contributions and the dynamic and participative dialogue both following each presentation and in the moments of break in the spirit of conviviality.

Over the course of the two days, key concepts of intercultural philosophy were addressed, both from the point of view of ethical-political reflection, including resilience, moral exemplarity, ethos of responsibility and solidarity, and from the theoretical point of view, in particular the concept of existence and historicity, as well as that of time and temporality, and multiperspectivism. Furthermore, these conceptual cores were investigated from different branches of philosophy, from the aesthetics of music to the philosophy of education, and from the history of philosophy to political philosophy, bringing authors from the Western tradition into dialogue with other philosophical geographies, in particular the Caribbean, Chinese and Central European philosophies. A source of great honour and inspiration was the presence of Prof. Gunjun Wu, who proposed an interesting and acute analysis of the global climate crisis starting from a rethinking of classical Chinese philosophy from the perspective of interculturality.
