The first reading group for 2024 will be first of a two-part series on the Hinge of History Hypothesis. We will be discussing “Are We Living at the Hinge of History?” by William MacAskill, from the anthology Ethics and Existence: The Legacy of Derek Parfit (2022), edited by Jeff McMahan, Tim Campbell, James Goodrich, and Ketan Ramakrishnan.

The Mimir reading group meets every three weeks to discuss academic papers related to the project’s main research topics. The reading group usually takes place on Fridays at 15:00 (CET) at the IFFS office and on Zoom.

Note: The reading group is a pre-read event.
