Research Group in Analytic Philosophy

LOGOS is an international group of researchers who work on core issues in a variety of central areas of philosophy. Their research is unified by a common methodological approach properly characterized as analytic.

LOGOS is recognized by the Catalan government as a consolidated research group. It is a founding member of the Barcelona Institute of Analytic Philosophy, a María Maeztu Unit of Excellence.


Activities

LOGOS regularly organizes colloquia with invited speakers from Spain and abroad, internal research seminars, reading groups, as well as international workshops and conferences. Its predoctoral fellows run their own Graduate Research Seminar to discuss work-in-progress.
