Linguistic Field(s): General Linguistics 

Meeting Description: 

Framing is increasingly considered a central feature in linguistic interaction,
social communication, the application of intelligence. The colloquium will
explore research lines pursued in a variety of disciplines, and primarily in
linguistics, philosophy and economics. Our objective will be to encourage mutual
awareness, cross fertilization and the identification of new problem areas and
analytical tools.

The colloquium will focus, although not exclusively, upon issues relevant at the
same time in manifold fields of investigation, such as the relationship between
framing and non-monotonic reasoning, context-dependence, the dynamics of
meaningful patterns in interactive situations. It is hoped that the colloquium
will stimulate a fresh outlook on classical (and central) issues such as the
evolution of natural languages, the dynamics of collective Knowledge, the
possibility of coordination. 

We are pleased to inform you that the Centre for Theoretical and Applied
Linguistics, the Department of Economics and the Department of Philosophy of the
University of Bologna will jointly sponsor the conference Frames: a Colloquium
in Linguistics, Philosophy and Economics.
