Basic Research – Grant Agency of the Czech Republic
Grant Agency of the Czech Republic
The Grant Agency of the Czech Republic (GACR) was established by Act No. 300/1992 Coll., on state support of research and development, in 1992 as an independent institution supporting basic scientific research in the Czech Republic.
The task of the GACR is to annually award grants to the best basic research projects in all fields of science based on a public tender in research and development. Another task of the agency is also to check the progress of the solution and fulfillment of project objectives for each past year and to evaluate the achieved results of the projects after their completion.

EXPRO
EXPRO grants provide funding to excellent scientists and their teams for five years. The projects with the most significant potential to be part of a breakthrough in their respective field are selected for funding by international panels. One of the requirements for a successfully completed project is the submission of a project proposal to the European Research Council (ERC). Only a few EXPRO projects are funded each year.

Abstract
The doctrine of inferentialism, based on the idea that meaningfulness is a matter of rules of inference, was first presented in Robert Brandom`s book “Making it explicit” in 1994. Since then, inferentialists (ourselves included) have further developed the logical and semantic dimensions of this view, making it into one of the most discussed philosophical doctrines of the twenty-first century. However, inferentialism is usually conceived of as a purely philosophical doctrine that provides a new perspective on uniquely human rational and expressive capacities, but which does not intersect with what science tells us about us as (hyper)social creatures with a natural, cultural and developmental history. We find this a missed opportunity and our project aims to bridge this crevasse by drawing on the current scientific research on cooperation, conventions, norms, language and reasoning to explain the ontogeny and phylogeny of the inferential rules that constitute meaning. This project will thereby build a naturalistic foundation for inferentialism.
Aims
The aim of the project is to produce a thoroughly naturalized version of inferentialism, which would result from a confrontation of the ideas tabled by the philosophy of inferentialism with the cutting-edge empirical research on cooperation, conventions, norms, language or reasoning.
