XXXII Baltic Conference on the History and Philosophy of Science

The 2026 Baltic Conference on the History and Philosophy of Science explores how science has been made, remade, and transformed in the Baltics across different political regimes and historical periods. While the post–Second World War restructuring of science under Soviet rule forms an important focus of the conference, the theme also invites contributions addressing earlier and later periods, examining the shifting nature of scientific cultures over time, as well as offering comparative perspectives from the wider Baltic Sea region, including the Nordic countries. We particularly welcome contributions that examine how scientific knowledge, practices, and scientific communities have been reshaped through political change, institutional reorganization, and shifting ideological frameworks. The conference invites papers offering historical and philosophical perspectives on the natural sciences, medicine, applied sciences, and the humanities
