englischCan we learn how to think? Which role does philosophy play in contemporary society? Are children capable of philosophical thinking? Can philosophy further independent, critical thinking and tolerance?
Experts from all over the world discussed some of these questions during the international conference 'Encouraging Philosophical Thinking' in Graz, Austria. The main topics of the conference were: the role of philosophy, the development of creative and critical thinking and the relevance for current 'especially ethical' problems. These problems refer to questions in the fields thinking and education - environment and ecology - citizenship and democracy and intercultural communication and global thinking.
