Discussions of the phenomenological movement tend to focus on Western Europe and North America.  But from its beginnings through to the present day, phenomenology has been force in Central and Eastern Europe as well.

With this in mind, we would like to spread the word about the following conference and call for papers:

The Institute of Philosophy of the Research Centre for the Humanities of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences presents
