Center for Process Studies
The Center for Process Studies (CPS) was founded in 1973 by John B. Cobb and David Ray Griffin to encourage exploration of the relevance of process thought to many fields of reflection and action. As a faculty center of Claremont School of Theology in association with Claremont Graduate University, and through seminars, conferences, publications and the library, CPS seeks to promote new ways of thinking based on the work of philosophers Alfred North Whitehead, and Charles Hartshorne, and others in the process tradition.
CPS seeks to promote the common good by means of the relational approach found in process thought. Process thought helps to harmonize moral, aesthetic, and religious intuitions with scientific insights, and grounds discussion between Eastern and Western religious and cultural traditions. It seeks to offer an approach to the social, political, and economic order that brings issues of human justice together with a concern for ecology. Its range of interests also includes scientific, philosophical, multicultural, feminist, interreligious, political, and economic concerns; with a strong focus on ecology and sustainability.
CPS leadership currently includes Executive Director, Wm. Andrew Schwartz, three Faculty Co-Directors, Philip Clayton, Monica Coleman, Roland Faber, and three Emerita Faculty Co-Directors, including Marjorie Hewitt Suchocki and the late John B. Cobb and David Ray Griffin.
The Center for Process Studies works across disciplines to promote the exploration and application of process-relational thinking in various areas. Over the years, special "Projects" have been created for ongoing work in key area. Below is a list of current Projects.
Common Good International Film Festival
The Common Good International Film Festival is an annual event that celebrate films that foster social and personal responsibility to others and the earth; films that elicit common sense, common decency, and the common good. Whiteheadian philosophy provides a worldview that fosters social and personal responsibility to one another and to the earth that sustains us. Intercultural appreciation and understanding is a component of the common good that can be fostered by viewing and discussing excellent films produced around the world.
Whitehead Research Project
The Whitehead Research Project (WRP) is committed to scholarship on the texts, philosophy, and life of Alfred North Whitehead. WRP places Whitehead's thought in dialogue with contemporary philosophies in order to unfold his philosophy of organism and its consequences for our time.
Process & Faith
Process & Faith (P&F) is dedicated to providing practical applications of process-relational theology. P&F creates non-technical educational resources for clergy and laypersons of all faiths, including short-term courses and an online quarterly magazine Creative Transformation. P&F also makes available process-related books and other resources through its bookstore.
The China Project
The China Project translates major process texts into Chinese, holds academic conferences in the United States and China, sponsors an annual "Process Academy" in China, hosts visiting Chinese scholars in Claremont, and has established over 23 Centers for Process Studies in China.
