The Iranian Society for Phenomenology (ISP)
The Iranian Society for Phenomenology (ISP) is a non-profit organization working under the aegis of the Iranian Political Science Association (IPSA). Generally, the purpose of ISP is to stimulate, accelerate, and integrate phenomenological research and to broaden existing knowledge about related philosophical and scientific studies in this field. To achieve this goal, the ISP holds theoretical classes, specialized meetings, reading groups, and scientific workshops as well as producing audio and video content and publishing the Iranian Yearbook of Phenomenology (IYP). Nevertheless, the main focus of ISP is on existing and/or possible political readings of phenomenology. You can follow on Instagram @iranianphen and check out the ISP YouTube Channel.

Summary of the Sessions

The British Society for Phenomenology (BSP) and the Iranian Society for Phenomenology are collaborating on a webinar series this January. The sessions aim to establish connections with phenomenologists around the world to provide a platform for showcasing state-of-the-art research. Throughout the week of Sunday 14th to Friday 19th January, researchers will present their latest findings. There will be a wide range of topics covered across these 6 days, including gift-giving, defining animality, the climate crisis, the phenomenology of autism, the possibility of a phenomenological political ontology, and the relationship between social sciences and phenomenology. The presentations will begin at 4 pm (UK time) and last about 45 minutes, followed by a 30-minute question and answer period.

Registration will cost £10, except for Iran based ISP associates who attend for free (details below). Registration includes access to all webinars as well as a recording in case you miss it live. Since this is a flat rate fee, you will pay the same price whether you attend one webinar or all. Unlike previous online events, attendance is open to anyone regardless of membership status in the BSP or ISP. If you’re paying in another currency via Paypal, it will automatically convert to British Pounds.
