Thematic Description
Theme
These sessions seek to be a convening space to meet the
following goals: (i) both lecturers and attendants will
always have an active participation; (ii) all the lecturers
will always have an audience to hold a debate.
To achieve this, there will be four round tables made up of
four (4) lecturers of renowned background, coordinated by a
moderator, who will play a key role in leading the debate
process. The sessions will be held in the morning and in the
afternoon on both days.
The lecturers of each round table will provide an answer to
the issues detailed below,
which are also the subject matters each round table will
tackle. The main intention is to contribute to the debate
concerning certain current issues to be initiated by a
suggested question which must be related to the theme of
this Meeting.
Apart from the invited lecturers,
the sessions will be open to the participation of
professionals willing to submit written communications about
the general topic or any of the subtopics to be tackled by
each round table. Their work, prior approval by the Second
International Meeting of Philosophy and Humanities – UNLa
–Meeting Academic Commission, will be published in a volume
released by the National University of Lanús (UNLa) together
with the full versions of the lecturers presentations.
T he
round tables will feature Argentine professors (both from
the National University of Lanús and from other Argentine
universities) as well as professors from other countries.
The maximum time limit allowed for each lecture is twenty
(20) minutes. Next there will be a ten-minute period for
questions. There will be a brief break after a sequence of
two lectures. Once the four lectures have ended, the
moderator will lead the general debate focusing on the
specific topic of the round table: (i) among the lecturers
themselves, and (2) between the audience and the lecturers.
The sessions start in the morning at 9:30 and finish at
13:00. In the afternoon, the sessions start at 15:00 and
continue until 18:30 approximately.
