Full Description
This book focuses on the core foundational issues that underpin conceptual engineering as a philosophical method. In less than a decade, the attention conceptual engineering has attracted across the whole discipline has grown with an explosive intensity. Based on lectures by leading philosophers at the Conceptual Engineering Online Seminar 2020/2022, this volume provides the reader with multiple entry-points in conceptual engineering, from case studies applied to specific concepts of high philosophical, scientific, social or political significance to metaphilosophical investigations into the theoretical foundations of conceptual engineering. It is of great interest to both the professional philosophers, experts in metaphilosophy or interested in applying the methods of conceptual to issues in their own areas of specialization, and philosophy students, eager to get acquainted with the most exciting and dynamic methodological developments of their discipline. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the foundations of conceptual engineering and conceptual change for making things as they stand better.
