Conference Description
History and Philosophy of Science (aka HPS) emerged in the 1950s and greatly promoted the historical approach to the philosophy of science. Despite its rapid institutionalisation in the 1960s, HPS did not become a full-fledged academic discipline eventually. There have been axiological, institutional, methodological, and practical challenges. That said, some historically minded philosophers of science and philosophically minded historians of science never stop making efforts to promote the dialogue across the boundaries and develop HPS approaches (e.g. integrated HPS, HOPOS, and PHS). This conference aims to reflect on the nature, methodology, development, and prospect of HPS.
