In 2012, Lisa Foran and Rozemund Uljée were together granted the prestigious New Foundations Award from the Irish Research Council to begin a new research project.  The project now titled ‘The Difference of Philosophy’ opens an international dialogue on the role of philosophy in contemporary society through a series of workshops and conferences. This volume addresses the project’s title through an investigation of three of Europe’s most important thinkers of difference.
