Program

Complex Systems Analysis

Since 1996 the program, in cooperation with the Faculty of Humanities at the National University of Comahue, organized a Master of Philosophy and History of Science. This Master is directed by the Program Director and has a staff of qualified teachers from various universities. Courses have finished three classes of students, of which a significant number has defended his final thesis or is close to doing so.

Since 1998, the program has developed several research projects financed by the CONICET, including a project of international cooperation with the Institute of Philosophy of the CSIC (Madrid). It has also participated in a project with the program ECOS Gino Germani Research Institute of the Faculty of Social Sciences of the University of Buenos Aires and the University of Paris I. Currently, these projects include the participation of five fellows graduate.

In 1999 the program created the Patagonian Journal of Philosophy, indexed publication that has an international advisory committee of recognized experts. It is published in partnership with the National University of Quilmes.

Since 2002, the program is based, along with Gino Germani Research Institute of the University of Buenos Aires, a UNESCO Chair in Philosophy. The owner of the program is the director and his deputy in charge is Dr. Francisco Naishtat.

Since the end of 2012 the program was configured as Department and within the same four programs were created: Ancient Philosophy, Social Sciences, Philosophy of Technology and Ecophilosophy.
