纽约哲学研究所依托纽约大学和伦敦大学哲学系以及纽约市立大学研究生中心而建立,主要资助特定主题的研究项目,通过讲座、会议和研讨会等形式推动哲学发展。项目涉及哲学、人生和社会的各方面,包括信仰、推理、理性、真理、概率、知识、政治哲学、科学和宗教等,从各种角度解决一些既处于核心重要地位又未被充分研究的问题。研究所在传统哲学领域的基础上,深入开发新的哲学知识,帮助人们从批判性思维、分析和论证中精益求精,通过意识和反思深度思考生活。
The New York Institute of Philosophy, founded by the Departments of Philosophy at NYU and the University of London, and the Graduate Center at CUNY, funds research projects on specific topics and advances philosophy through lectures, conferences and seminars. The project covers all aspects of philosophy, life and society, including belief, reasoning, reason, truth, probability, knowledge, political philosophy, science and religion, and addresses some of the core and important but understudied issues from a variety of perspectives. The Institute develops new philosophical knowledge on the basis of traditional philosophical fields, and helps people to improve on critical thinking, analysis and argumentation, and to think deeply about life through consciousness and reflection.
