The Princeton University Graduate Conference in Political Theory will be held from Friday, April 15 to Saturday, April 16, 2016.

The conference offers visiting graduate students a unique opportunity to present and receive feedback on works in progress during individualized, 75-minute sessions. After receiving feedback from a Princeton graduate student discussant, each author will engage in an extensive Q&A period with Princeton faculty, students, and guests. Alison McQueen (Stanford University) will deliver the 2016 keynote address.

We welcome papers addressing any topic in political theory, political philosophy, or the history of political thought.

Submission deadline: Sunday, December 13, 2015. Graduate students in political theory will review papers over winter break. The conference committee will send acceptance notifications to  candidates in late January, 2016.

Format: Please format papers for blind review, making sure to exclude any personal and institutional information.

Length: Papers should not exceed 10,000 words (excluding footnotes and bibliographic information). 

How to submit: Please upload submissions as PDFs to our submission management platform, which can be found at: http://politicaltheory.princeton.edu/openconf/openconf.php
