Values in a Changing World INTERNATIONAL FORUM ON VALUES July 13-14, 2017- Macerata Dear Prof. Alexander N. Chumakov: Cultures are defined by their core values. As our human world is moving through profound changes and internal strives, adjustment and dialogue in values are looming ever more urgent. Local and traditional values are incessantly challenged by the development of high technologies, the spread of the internet and social media, and regional and global financial and social crises, while new values are coined and consumed with or without our notice. The promotion of Core Values in China has already galvanized a new consciousness of value dialogues. In 2016, the Brexit and the election of Donald Trump have wakened up millions to see a different world of values surrounding us. In view of all these changes and challenges, the School of Philosophy of Beijing Normal University, the Department of Humanities of the University of Macerata, and the International Society for Value Inquiry will hold the Macerata International Forum on Values, with the theme “Values in a Changing World”, from 13 to 14 July 2017 at the University of Macerata, Italy. Philosophers and other scholars from around the world will be welcomed to discuss issues of values in a changing world to promote inquiry, reflection, and mutual understanding. We would like to invite you to participate in the Macerata International Forum on Values. Given your philosophical interests and expertise on matters of value, we believe you will make important contributions to our discussions. If you would like to present a paper at the forum, please send a title for a session on one of the suggested topics that follows by 15 April 2017, using the attached confirmation form.
