And yet philosophy is not part of the predominant approaches to and discourses around sustainability. This is due to dysfunctions in society and in philosophy. In this talk, Adam Briggle will focus on the latter, by arguing that philosophers have fallen victim to disciplinary capture, which consigns them to irrelevance or, at best, very indirect impacts. Public philosophy, in various ways, seeks to change this situation, and it is having a renaissance. The talk will focus on field philosophy, which is a species of public philosophy that is both a collaborative practice of engaged scholarship and a theory of knowledge that contrasts with the disciplinary model of knowledge production.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/philosophy.unt.edu\/people\/faculty\/adam-briggle\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/philosophy.unt.edu\/people\/faculty\/adam-briggle&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1680352822954000&amp;usg=AOvVaw3ZrSnSKSxIA9BQc-VOfw6s\">Adam Briggle<\/a> is an Associate Professor and the Director of Graduate Studies in the Department of Philosophy and Religion at the University of North Texas.
