The Department of Language, Linguistics and Philosophy, Institute of Caribbean Studies and the Centre for Caribbean Thought, as a part of The Caribbean Philosophical Association (CPA) will host the Fourth CPA Conference, June 27-29, at the University of the West Indies, Mona Campus.

The theme for the Fourth Annual CPA Conference is “Shifting the Geography of Reason IV: Intellectual Movement.” The CPA will expand its organizing theme, as it focused on the broad impact of the rise of Africana and other “third world” philosophies from geographical notions, metaphors, and assumptions that have long been associated with modern concepts of philosophical reason.

For CPA Conference 2007 will explore a variety of intellectual movements that have shaped the development of ideas, especially in the Caribbean, and continue to have an impact (positive or negative) on the geography of reason.
