DESCRIPTION OF THE COLLOQUIUM

The 2014 TPLC is the second of the series of Taiwan Philosophical
Logic Colloquium,
which is one of two series of biennial conferences established since
2012 and based in
The Program for Logic, Mind and Methodology (LMM), Department of Philosophy,
National Taiwan University, Taiwan. (The other one is the series of
Taiwan Metaphysics
Colloquium, established since 2013.) Each event in these two series by
and large runs in
one/two days only. We usually invite one or two distinguished
philosophers/logicians
as keynote speakers and 3-4 distinguished scholars from Asian and
Australasian regions
together with several contributed papers. We hope that the
establishment of these two
series will make a rewarding and inspiring series of events so as to promote the
development of metaphysics and philosophical logic in Asian area,
especially in Taiwan.

In particular, the aim of the series of Taiwan Philosophical Logic
Colloquium is to bring
together a group of logical-minded philosophers and a group of logicians with
philosophical orientation. We intend, via the establishment of this
series, to provide a
forum for dialogues amongst philosophers and logicians with regard to
a variety of
significant issues and topics from philosophical and logical
perspective, respectively.
The scope of this series of colloquium will cover: philosophical logic
(in a broad sense),
non-classical logics, algebraic logic, all kinds of semantics/logics relating to
philosophical concepts in metaphysics, epistemology, philosophy of language,
philosophy of logic/mathematics, and their applications in computer science and
cognitive science.

LIAA (``Logic in
Asia'') is a new established publication project for a series of logic
books from Springer.
See http://www.springer.com/series/13080. If our project is approved, a post-

authors of papers
presented at the colloquium will be encouraged to submit a full version and the
deadline of submission of manuscripts will be around February of 2015.
All papers
submitted will be refereed to high journal standards, and acceptance

approval and the
details of the post-conference proceedings will be announced later.
