The Wisdom, and Madness, of Crowds: Group Beliefs, Echo Chambers and Collective Identities

Group standing outside of EUC fountain

On May 28-29,  the workshop The Wisdom, and Madness, of Crowds: Group Beliefs, Echo Chambers and Collective Identities, will be taking place at Erasmus University Rotterdam. This event will bring together philosophers interested in the formation, dynamics, and epistemic implications of collective beliefs, as well as the social mechanisms that sustain or undermine them—such as echo chambers, polarization, and group identity effects.
