Through regular, international conferences, the Telos-Paul Piccone Institute promotes scholars working in all parts of the world in order to develop a unique perspective on current events, including issues of democracy, authoritarianism, cross-cultural conflict, the relation of religion and politics, economic crises, and the contemporary meaning of technology and the natural sciences. Some of the resulting research is made available on the TELOSscope blog as well as in the journal Telos.
