Beschreibung:	CONFERENCE ANNOUNCEMENT “NOMINALISM: A REASSESSMENT” eidos, the Center in Metaphysics of the University of Geneva, and CUSO (Conférence Universitaire de Suisse Occidentale) are pleased to announce the conference “Nominalism: A Reassessment”. The conference will focus on nominalism about properties rather than nominalism about numbers, propositions or abstract objects in general. Dates: September 17-19, 2012 Venue: University of Geneva, Switzerland Nominalism about properties is a traditional view according to which all existing entities are particulars. Specifically, nominalism rejects universals or properties in general. The conference aims to address issues in the history of nominalism, the problems and objections faced by different versions of nominalism, whether historical or contemporary, the relations between different varieties of nominalism, and any other philosophical issues about nominalism. Speakers Paolo Crivelli (University of Geneva) Richard Glauser (University of Neuchâtel) Philip Goff (University of Liverpool) Markku Keinänen (University of Turku) Fraser MacBride (University of Cambridge) John Marenbon (University of Cambridge) Joseph Melia (Oxford University) Claude Panaccio (UQAM) Alexander Paseau (Oxford University) Gonzalo Rodriguez-Pereyra (Oxford University) For further information, please contact ghislain.guigon@unige.ch or visit the website at eidos.
