Philosophical practice exists since antiquity, under this name, however, only for about 30 years. Since this time the concept particularly initiated by Gerhard Achenbach has spread worldwide and deepened. Out of it a substantial, versatile international movement has developed.
Philosophical practice is based on the conviction that philosophizing has not only purely theoretical knowledge as its aim, but that it is helpful to understand the human existence and questions of the everyday life from philosophical background and in philosophical way. Philosophical practitioners are convinced that the philosophical dialogue can be helpful for one’s orientation in life.
Since 1994 international conferences for philosophical practice have taken place, in many different countries of the world. In 2016 we, the network for practical philosophizing philopraxis.ch, plans to carry out the 14th ICPP in Berne. The network philopraxis.ch exists since 2002 and has about 30 members.
