On the occasion of the World Day of Philosophy, here are some thoughts about the meaning, the reality, the remains and the role of philosophy today.
Starting with the question what would happen if the philosophers went on strike, indicate the role of language and the role of ideas in the way people, everyday giving meaning to the facts of their lives. The ideas lead people to decisions, laws, rules, principles, and attitudes. The ideas create facts and our world of facts arises from going astray ghosts of past ideas.

Why might a degree in philosophy be worth more in the future than a degree in computer science? As artificial intelligence advances towards the «automation of automation», the capacity to write and refine its own code, the distinctly human advantage will lie in the ability to pose the right questions, to define the appropriate parameters, and to assess the meaning and purpose of any given process.

When we talk about enhancement or modifying the human body, we often put forward the argument of the limits of human nature, and therefore, acts that violate those limits are judged negatively. This view, however, contains assumptions that lead to logical fallacies.

This paper presents the views about war and peace before and after Kant, and analyze critically, the Kantian essay "Perceptual Peace."

How did logical fallacies dominate public discourse during the global coronavirus crisis? False premises, arbitrary generalizations and diverting the discussion to irrelevant arguments are in the arsenal of those who try to convince the public of the righteousness of their own opinion, obscuring the truth. The "red herring" of Bernard-Henri Levy and incomparable "comparisons", in the sixth article of the series on issues of philosophical discourse during the pandemic.

For the scientific study Other Minds by Peter Godfrey-Smith, published by Crete University Press in a translation by Ch. I. Yemeliaris, Alkis Gounaris writes [BOOK PRESS, 2025].

In managing a crisis like the current one, our actions have an impact on a network of relationships that includes us, our close family, our companions and friends, our professional circle, the local community and the state itself. Our responsibility to all of them means obligations, duties and ultimately particular decisions, actions and behavior.

Some thinkers are considering "business ethics" as "oxymoron" while others see it as an imperative to ensure the 'market' and the entrepreneurship. The dilemmas we examine in this essay, focuses on the responsibility of legal - artificial - entities such as companies, toward: [A] persons (employees, shareholders and consumers), [B] other artificial entities (organizations or systems as companies, society, state, etc.) and, [C] the natural environment.

During the pandemic, hundreds or thousands of lives were lost or at risk. Along with the pain and fear of death, people have experienced the unprecedented insecurity generated by the unknown and the possibility that the world will never be the same again. What do Hume, Popper and Wittgenstein have to say about the end of certainty? The errors of inductive reasoning, in the eighth article of the series on the contribution of philosophy to the treatment of irrationality, which spread along with the coronavirus.

How did philosophy contribute to the treatment of irrationality that prevailed in public discourse during the days of the pandemic? Was the crisis a golden opportunity for an era of renewed communism, as Zizek imagined? What was the moral criterion of many Western countries that delayed the implementation of strict protective measures? Populism, capitalism and the various manifestations of utilitarianism, in the first article of the series on issues of philosophical discourse during the global crisis of COVID-19.
