Philosophy at the Margins

The Uehiro Graduate Philosophy Conference showcases exceptional work by graduate and advanced undergraduate students in all fields of philosophy. This year’s conference will focus upon “philosophy at the margins,” providing a forum for philosophical voices and perspectives that have been traditionally marginalized in the American academic setting. This includes a broad range of topics, from feminist philosophies, philosophies of race, philosophy of disability, to non-Western and comparative philosophies, and interdisciplinary philosophies that challenge the strict divide between disciplines. Some other topics of interest include critical philosophy, metaphilosophy, and practical ethics in marginalized communities. There are many other worthwhile topics, and we welcome any papers that address the general theme.

Email abstracts and full papers by December 31 to uehiroPC@hawaii.edu. Papers should be suitable for a 20-minute presentation. In the body of the email include: 1) Your name, 2) Title of the paper, 3) Institutional affiliation, 4) Contact information (email, phone number, mailing address), and 5) Whether you would like to be considered for a travel award. Send documents in word format with no identifying information for blind review. Priority will be given to complete papers. Notification of acceptance will be sent by January 20th 2017. The Uehiro Student Essay Award will be presented to the best student presentation. Competitive partial travel subsidies will be available this year for both international and domestic travel. All submissions will be considered for possible publication in the Uehiro Conference Proceedings, published in the past by Cambridge Scholars Press. To view past volumes, visit their website.
