Commemorating the Japan Visit of Philosophy's Darling, Markus Gabriel! A 'Real Philosophical Dialogue' with Kyoto University Professor Yasuo Deguchi to be Held on Friday, April 17th

◆ A Special Dialogue Between Eastern and Western Minds!

To commemorate the Japan visit of Markus Gabriel, one of the most brilliant philosophers of this century, we will be hosting a philosophical dialogue with Yasuo Deguchi, Professor at Kyoto University and Co-Representative Director of the Kyoto Institute of Philosophy.

Having collaborated for the sake of future society with a shared vision, and having deepened their dialogue in their co-authored book "What Philosophy Can Do for the Future of Society: New Moral Realism and the WE-Turn" (Kobunsha Shinsho), the two will discuss what each of us living in this chaotic era can do for the future—specifically, "Deep Innovation for the Future."

Whether you became interested in philosophy through this book, want to meet Mr. Gabriel, or are looking to apply philosophy to business, we invite you to join us for this special opportunity.
