Today it is not clear, however, how we can pursue and develop this long- standing discipline in the entirely new circumstances of the 21st century.But we have a clue in the tradition of our department. Th is department was the home of a distinctive philosophical movement in the 20th century Japan; Kyoto school. Th e founders of the school, Kitaro Nishida and Hajime Tanabe, served for decades as professors of this department, rearing a host of original and creative philosophers. Th ey were open minded to such diverse intellectual milieu as Western classical and contemporary philosophies, Eastern traditional thoughts, religious experience, science, mathematics, logic, art, practical matters etc. Against those rich and wide intellectual and cultural backgrounds, they attempted to construct dense and daring philosophical edifi ces of their own.In the age of globalization and under the dominance of science/technology, we are in more need than ever for the open-mindedness to various intellectual fields and practical issues. So while researching classical and contemporary Western philosophy, we are always paying serious attentions to such other fields as mentioned above, and seeking to make unique and original philosophical contributions to today’s various problems.We are also very keen to establish international networks of scholars and students of philosophy and many other disciplines. Through corroborations with newly established institutions in Kyoto University and Graduate School of Letters such as Center for Applied Philosophy and Ethics (CAPE) and Kyoto University Asian Studies Unit (KUASU), we are organizing numerous international workshops, symposiums, exchange of scholars and students, and other research and educational activities. Our emphasis is particularly placed on the establishment of cross-disciplinary intellectual networks in the region of Asia and Pacifi c.20❶❶❷❷DEPARTMENT OFPHILOSOPHY
