Rom Harré, Jean-Pierre Llored, (dir.)
Rom Harré previously served as University Lecturer in Philosophy of Science and Fellow of Linacre College at the University of Oxford, UK. In the 1970s, he turned to the problems of making social psychology a plausible scientific discipline. After retiring from Oxford he joined the Psychology Department at Georgetown University in Washington DC, USA, where he became one of the leaders in the attempt to develop a form of social psychology that had both scientific respectability and practical value. In 2013, he returned to Linacre College, where he continues to work on further developments of psychology as a cultural discipline.
Jean-Pierre Llored was first trained as a chemist (chemical engineer and Professor ‘agrégé’ of Chemistry) before receiving a PhD from the Free University of Brussels, Belgium, and becoming a Doctor in Epistemology and History of Science at the Ecole Polytechnique, France. His papers deal with philosophy of chemistry and ecology, metametaphysics, mereology, and ethics. He edited the volumes Philosophy of Chemistry : Practices, Methodologies, and Concepts (2013) and La mésologie, un nouveau paradigme pour l’anthropocène (2018).
