Fatih University has jointly
organized the First International Conference of the Asian Philosophical Association
in cooperation with DaeDong Philosophical Association of Korea and Kobe University
of Japan. The Conference concentrated on glocalism vis-à-vis humanities, values
and civilization in the Asian continent. In this context, glocalism is understood
as the attitude towards the phenomenon of global rapprochement between all
societies and civilizations sustaining at the same time their local characteristics
and identity. It is a pleasure now to announce that we have successfully completed
the Conference between September 29 and October 2, 2005 held at Fatih University,
Istanbul, with the valuable contributions of our participants. Now, you can
see the list of participants,
proceedings

The Second International Conference of the Asian Philosophical Association
is now scheduled on October 26-29, 2006 Pusan National University, Korea.
