TFAP

What is TFAP? The Tokyo Forum for Analytic Philosophy (in short, 'TFAP') is a forum for research in analytic philosophy broadly conceived---including research in the empirical/formal sciences that is of philosophical interest. We are inviting speakers from Japan and abroad. In particular, we invite also graduate students and young researchers to present at our forum. Meetings are held in English. Anybody who is interested is welcome. 

Why is there a TFAP? With analytic philosophy being on the rise in Japan, there is clearly a need for a discussion forum that puts analytic philosophy in Japan more visibly on the map. TFAP aims to meet this desideratum more effectively in both focussing on analytic philosophy exclusively, and in being open to a wider, international community.

Where to find us? The forum is now hosted by the Department of History and Philosophy of Science at the University of Tokyo. Unless otherwise specified, our new venue is at Komaba Campus, in Meguro-ku, Tokyo. (For further information, please see venue).

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: TFAP meetings are now held in a hybrid format. You can attend our meetings (a) on-campus (see 'Venue' in the menu bar) or (b) online through the following channel:  https://bit.ly/3wW74RK
