Events
At the Institute of Philosophy, we annually organize numerous international and national scientific conferences, workshops, lectures, and seminars. An overview of current events can be found in the event calendar.
Partnerships
Our research is closely conducted in collaboration with Czech and international universities as well as other scientific institutions. We implement dozens of grant projects funded by national and European sources. Overview of current projects.
Together with partner universities, we offer doctoral studies in seven study programs, allowing students to utilize the research infrastructure of the Institute of Philosophy and collaborate with supervisors among its staff. In partnership with prominent international scientific institutions, we participate in numerous research projects. The number of international projects and cooperation agreements currently exceeds several dozen. Each year, visiting foreign researchers contribute to the Institute’s work during their research stays.
Since 2018, upon the recommendation of the Academic Council of the Czech Academy of Sciences, the International Advisory Board has served as a permanent advisory body to the director of the Institute of Philosophy. Its role is to provide continuous consultancy on research activities, the fulfillment of the scientific strategy, establishing international collaborations, participating in foreign projects, and ongoing evaluation of the Institute’s work. The board consists of distinguished international experts in philosophy and related scientific disciplines, covering the research structure of the Institute.
Publishing Activities
We publish eight scientific journals (e.g., the Philosophical Journal and Folia Philologica) and develop editorial activities through our own publishing house, Filosofia. It provides an open publishing platform for original scientific works in philosophy and related humanities disciplines, as well as Czech translations of significant global works in these fields.
Since 2017, in collaboration with the OIKOYMENH association, we have also been publishing books in specialized OIKOYMENH editorial series, focusing on the publication of the most valuable works from the European and global philosophical tradition.
