  Paul K. Feyerabend: A Centennial Celebration

The 12th Annual

Values in Medicine, Science, and Technology Conference

at
The Center for Values in Medicine, Science, and Technology
Bass School of Arts, Humanities, and Technology
The University of Texas at Dallas
https://values.utdallas.edu/

May 23-25, 2024

2024 will mark the centennial of the birth of Paul K. Feyerabend and 
thirty years from his passing. Feyerabend was one of the most 
influential philosophers of science of the twentieth century, and his 
work helped pave the way for later developments in science and values, 
political philosophy of science, feminist and postcolonial science 
studies, the philosophy of scientific practice, and integrated history 
and philosophy of science. His masterwork, Against Method, was published 
nearly half a century ago, but we still have much to learn from reading 
Feyerabend’s works and carrying them forward to new problems and 
projects. This year’s Values in Medicine, Science, and Technology 
Conference will focus on the work of Paul K. Feyerabend and 
Feyerabendian themes in contemporary history and philosophy of science, 
science & technology studies, science policy, and other relevant areas.
