6th Contemporary Themes in Philosophy JUNIOR- Question Everything

After a success of the 5th Conference Philosophy Strikes Back, which was a three-day event held entirely in English, we have decided to make this year’s Conference also a three-day event. It will take place in Rijeka from May 14th until May 16th 2015. During the Conference, all of the participants who are not from Rijeka will be given an accommodation in the city centre, free public transportation to the Faculty and a lunch each day.  

The participants are not limited on the subject of their presentation. This is so in order to give an opportunity to the students with different fields of interest in philosophy to present their work. However, the original work will be preferred, as well as dealing with contemporary authors, themes and research.

The applications for participation are opened until 30th April 2015. Students from all levels of studies (undergraduate, graduate and post-graduate) are free to apply. One can apply as a single author or in pair. The official languages are Croatian and English. The sections in English language will be organized according to the number of foreign applications. In order to apply one has to send an abstract of the paper of approximate length of 300-500 words which will be published in a book of abstracts. Further, in the application e-mail you have to provide your full name and surname, faculty and university on which you study, the year and the level of study, your mail and phone number. If a certain timeframe does not suit you, please note that in the application e-mail also. The applicants who submit their abstracts in Croatian should also note whether they are willing to present in English. Each participant will be given 20 minutes for presentation, following a 10 minute discussion.
