Logic & Metaphysics is a collaborative research initiative founded by young students at the Universities of Bonn and Potsdam.
This idea took shape at the GAP. 12 in Düsseldorf 2025, where a conversation with overlapping interests became a plan. The plan became a conference series.
What drives us is a shared interest in the foundations of both disciplines, and in the question of how those foundations can be challenged, revised and to be examined at different levels, from different directions, and in different philosophical traditions.
While the first iteration focused on the mutual relationship between metaphysics and logic, we have since been exploring the various questions, themes, and problems that emerge from this foundation, seeking possible approaches and avenues for further inquiry.
We have retained the name Logic & Metaphysics, as it captures the core of our project and the shared point of departure for the diverse approaches we pursue.
