Academic activities

Ibrulj is the founder and president of the Academia Analitica, a learned society for the development of logic and analytic philosophy in Bosnia and Herzegovina and director of the "ZINK", a scientific and research incubator.[4][5] He is the founding editor of SOPHOS, a young researchers’ journal and of The Logical Foresight, a journal for logic and science.

Work in philosophy

Ibrulj has written extensively on various topics of analytic philosophy, philosophical logic, and philosophy of language, cognitive science and social ontology.

In his book Philosophy of Logic (1999), he introduced a theory named the Principle of the Logical. He defines the Principle of the Logical as an ideal matrix of the logical principles or laws of thought (the law of identity, the law of non-contradiction, the law of excluded middle, the law of sufficient reason).[6]

In the book The Century of Rearrangement (2005), Ibrulj investigated the concepts of relation between identity and knowledge in an ambient of intelligent space, which is designed by modern informational and communicational technology, nanoscience and nanotechnology, and the processes of globalisation. He made a distinction between two theories of identity: a strong theory of identity (“anchored identity”) and a weak theory of identity (“mobile identity” or “identity in action”).[7][8]

Ibrulj has also translated from English (Donald Davidson), German (Gottlob Frege), and Ancient Greek (Bosnian–Greek edition of Porphyry's Isagoge).[9]
