Individuation and Social Identities

The research project “Understanding Homo Individualis” takes homo individualis to stand for a conceptual structure accounting for the intrinsic individuality of human beings, this individuality being essentially irreducible to physical, biological, mental, or sociological determinations. The purpose of the conference is to stimulate discussion among scholars of a variety of philosophical orientations regarding the consciousness of one’s own individuality, thereby contributing to the current theoretical and practical debates.
