The Philosophy of Language Institute (IFL) is a research unit of the Faculty of Human and Social Sciences (Faculdade de Ciências Sociais e Humanas) of the New University of Lisbon (Universidade Nova de Lisboa) and it's supported by the Foundation for Science and Technology (Fundação para a Ciência e para a Tecnologia) of the Portuguese Ministry of Science, Technology and Higher Education. The main purpose of IFL is to develop research programs in the current fields of philosophy of language, philosophy of logic, philosophy of communication, aesthetics, political philosophy, philosophy of mind, and areas of philosophy of action and moral philosophy which are the main research fields of the Institute. There is not in the IFL a unique and strict philosophical (not to mention, ideological) orientation such as analytical versus continental philosophy and one can speak in a plurality of orientations of its members.
