On the one hand , we may be interested in the general question of what it is to be an object. On the other hand, we face the problem of delineating the criteria of ob jecthood in connection with specialized topics, gi ving rise to specific questions on what it is to b e an object of a certain kind (such as concrete, a bstract, indeterminate, mathematical, etc.). Accep ting or refusing things of a certain kind as legit imate objects (of that particular kind) when devel oping a scientific theory or a philosophical posit ion is likely to have important general repercussi ons. In our workshop we wish to investigate the notion of object, both generally and in relation t o particular fields of research. The emphasis is o n the grounds and consequences of specific views o n objects.

We invite submissions presenting original co ntributions to the above questions in relation to different disciplines within which they can arise (metaphysics, logic, physics, mathematics, theory of knowledge, and so on).
