Abstract

In 2015, the First Congress on Contemporary Philosophical Thought organized by the SAF took place. This first congress, as well as the next two (those in 2016 and 2017), were dedicated to authors who were still alive and active in philosophy.

From the third edition onwards we clearly saw that if we wanted to continue with a congress that was arousing increasing interest, we had to change its basic idea and abandon the list of authors in favor of the treatment of a philosophical problem and, if possible, a such that it related philosophy to another field of studies or problems.

In short, it was about creating a space for meetings outside academic life and open to society in general in which, of course, the people who are currently researching them participate, but also others who we could say inhabit those spaces. issues.
