Wisdom in Technological Era

International Conference on Wisdom in the Emergent Technologies Era

We are living in the Engineering Era. However, the engineering / re-engineering simply cannot be used everywhere. Moreover, a good engineering / re-engineering is always a question of good knowledge management, eventually.

There are a lot of questions we are not well managing when exploring the relation between information, knowledge and wisdom. One of them is: What is the wisdom? Obviously, the big questions of the humankind could be inter-disciplinary or cross-disciplinarily treated. It is wonderful to have projects focused on wisdom (see the Arete Project of the University of Chicago).

However, in the Emergent Technologies Era, we need, even before even the defining, to establish which of the following questions is appropriate when debating / researching on the nature of the wisdom:- Re-defining the wisdom?- Re-thinking the wisdom? – Re-shaping the wisdom? Or – Re-inventing the wisdom?

The main tracks we are inviting you to participate are:

  • The sciences on / and the wisdom

  • The humanities on / and the wisdom

  • Wisdom in-the-making (from the engineering perspective)

  • Is there wisdom in the research of wisdom?

  • Information, knowledge and wisdom
