Call for papers and panels
Besides the key note lecture, political, social and legal philosophers from Europe and beyond are invited to present an individual paper or host a panel. Papers are welcome in any area of political, social, or legal philosophy and from any philosophical methodological approach, but we particularly welcome those addressing the conference theme, which is democracy. Papers addressing the theme might examine the very idea of democracy, or might engage with particular issues in democratic theory.
Please send paper/panel proposals to aspp2015@gmail.com by 31st January 2015. Submissions should consist of a title and 400-500 word abstract (for each paper, in the case of panels). For further criteria, please visit the website.
