DESCRIPTION:<p><strong>CFA: Authority\, Power\, and Accountability</strong>&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>Significant advances have been made in the field of social ontology and sociology on the subject of authority-relations. A recent area of research in social ontology concerns the ways in which those in positions of authority determine the&nbsp\;<em>meaning</em>&nbsp\;of what their subordinates do.&nbsp\;This resulting power to confer meaning upon the actions of others has profound consequences in a variety of domains in social life\, including criminal law\, business ethics\, government\, family ethics\, and many more. The purpose of this workshop is to a) jump-start the discussion of how this new area of research updates our understanding of the ways in which authority-relations construct our reality\, b) integrate the insights philosophers and sociologists have respectively developed about authority-relations\, and c) develop further lines of research in which we explore how authority-relations shape social reality in sub-fields\, including applied ethics\, legal theory\, political science\, and economics.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p><strong>This pre-read\, single-day workshop will take place on 15 August at the University of Stockholm</strong> (just before the annual meeting of the International Social Ontology Society\, which is taking also taking place at Stockholm).&nbsp\;&nbsp\;</p>\n<p><strong>Keynote speaker is Abraham Roth.&nbsp\;</strong></p>\n<p><strong>We invite all to submit an anonymized abstract no longer than 1000 words to </strong><a href="mailto:authoritypoweraccountability@gmail.com"><strong>apa.abstracts@gmail.com</strong></a><strong> by 28 May\, 2023.</strong> Inquiries should also be sent to that address. &nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>Though we will be unable to provide stipends for presenters\, a limited number of bursaries will be made available for those suffering from financial difficulties.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>Funding for the workshop comes from the University of Stockholm\, the University of California San Diego\, and the International Social Ontology Society. The workshop is organized by:&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>Saba Bazargan-Forward (University of California\, San Diego)<br>Meradjuddin Khan Oidermaa (Department of Philosophy\, Stockholm University)<br>Margarita Chudnovskaya (Swedish Institute of Social Research\, Stockholm University)</p>
