The International Symposium on Alternatives, Belief, and Action emerges
from a research project with the same title, currently run by
philosophers who belong to the University of Valencia but also by some
who work at several universities in the UK and Belgium. In the meeting,
the three general topics of alternatives, belief, and action will be
addressed, either by themselves or by means of exploring their
connections. This is the second Valencia Symposium, after the one
organized in 2008 under the heading of International Symposium on
Belief, Responsibility, and Action.
Anyone is welcome to attend the conference.
