East and West Philosophy in Dialogue – From Worldview to Sustainable Order

Commencing at the Pari Center 20-25 June 2023 and concluding at the Vatican 27-28 June 2023.

A gathering of world leading philosophers to explore how traditionally Eastern emphases on holism may inform the global commons.

Engendering a new chapter in East and West communication especially in relation to pressing global challenges.

The Pari Center is pleased to host the June 2023 symposium East and West Philosophy in Dialogue—From Worldview to Sustainable Order. At the eight-day symposium, leading philosophers from the East and the West will gather to explore how traditionally Eastern emphases on holism may inform the global commons. The symposium will convene in Pari at the Pari Center and conclude in Rome at the Vatican with two days of dialogue on the 17 U.N. Sustainable Development Goals.

Some of the pertinent questions to be addressed include:

  • How does Eastern holism relate to the modern Western philosophical schools of Continental Philosophy, Analytic Philosophy, and Process Philosophy?
  • Whether and to what extent a holistic vision also can be found in the West?
  • Whether the diverse philosophical paths may complement each other and to what extent a Perennial Philosophy exists?
  • How does worldview relate to global sustainability?
  • How does worldview relate to local and global order?

Through substantive discussions, the Symposium hopes to engender a new chapter in East and West communication, especially insofar as it relates to pressing global challenges.
