Self-Organization of Cognition and Applications to Psychology: Ascona, Switzerland, October 26-28, 2000. For information: <http://www.upd.unibe.ch/research/symposien/HA9.html>. A focal point of the Monte Verita 2000 symposium is the disenchantment with the information processing view in psychology and cognitive science. The approach of symbolic information processing has resulted in doubtful "solutions" to fundamental problems of our understanding of cognition and action. One such problem is to understand volition and intentionality. Related problems arise from issues such as representation, constructivism and situatedness. The consequences of this discussion for psychology and cognitive science will have to be examined. The aim of the Monte Verita symposium is to bring together representatives of a new dynamical approach to cognition from various disciplines.

LaTeX and Word style files will be made on the symposium web site (http://ippserv.rug.ac.be/~isipta01) well before this deadline.
