This volume combines the theoretical and historical perspective
focusing on the specific features of a European philosophy of
science. On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the Institute
Vienna Circle the Viennese roots and influences will be addressed,
in addition. There is no doubt that contemporary philosophy of
science originated mainly in Europe beginning in the 19th century
and has influenced decisively the subsequent development of
globalized philosophy of science, esp. in North America. Recent
research in this field documents some specific characteristics of
philosophy of science covering the natural, social, and also
cultural sciences in the European context up to the destruction and
forced migration caused by Fascism and National Socialism. This
European perspective with the integration of history and philosophy
of science and the current situation in the philosophy of science
after the transatlantic interaction and transformation, and the
"return" after World War II raises the question of contemporary
European characteristics in the philosophy of science. The role and
function of the renowned Vienna Circle of Logical Empiricism and
its impact and influence on contemporary philosophy of science is
on the agenda, too. Accordingly, the general topic is dealt with in
two parallel sessions representing systematic-formal as well as
genetic-historical perspectives on philosophy of science in a
European context up to the present.
