About the Conference and Heidegger Circle in Asia (HCIA):

Since Heidegger’s philosophy was introduced into Asian nations in the early 20th century, it is always attractive for Asian philosophers. This is not only because Heidegger’s philosophy has a huge amount of influence on the development of Western philosophy, but also because it has many resonances for them. Many Asian scholars went to the Western to study Heidegger and came back to their own countries to spread his philosophy.

Heidegger’s philosophy is popular in Asia because it is, to some extent, particularly close to Asian ways of thinking. It is also worth noting that Heidegger was interested in East Asian thinking about Taoism and Buddhism and his discussions on them can be found in some of his works. Accordingly, many scholars have conducted researches and conferences about the relationship between Heidegger and East Asian philosophy since 1970s. Especially after 1990, there are more and more East Asian scholars who devote themselves to this subject matter. Of course, there are not only Heidegger-scholars from East Asian, but also from Western and Southern Asian. Those Asian scholars may focus on different sides of Heidegger’s philosophy and interpret it respectively from their own cultural perspectives, so that their interpretations actually reflect the diversity of Asian reception of Heidegger’s philosophy. However, those Heidegger-scholars from different parts of Asia seldom gather together to exchange their opinions, while they often discuss with scholars from their own country or from the Western.

In order to promote more intercultural dialogues about Heidegger’s philosophy within those Asian scholars from different cultural traditions, we have set up a round table named “Heidegger and Asia” at the 24th World Congress of Philosophy in Peking in 2018. Directly after this round table, the participants decided to ground an international network for more possibilities to exchange their ideas deeply and named it the Heidegger Circle in Asia (HCIA). The main aim of HCIA is to facilitate discussions between Heidegger-scholars in Asia and their mutual understanding. The HCIA would held an international conference every year and welcome any contributions: (1) to discuss Heidegger’s thought about Asia and Asian philosophy; (2) to discuss his philosophy in Asia; (3) to compare his philosophy with Asian thinking; and (4) to exchange intercultural interpretations of his philosophy within Asia. The first conference of HCIA will take place in Taipei City on November 22-23, 2019 and be conducted in English.
