DESCRIPTION:<p>&ldquo\;Friction&rdquo\; is meant to encapsulate both the discomforts and generativity of an encounter between self and other&mdash\;between thinkers\, between texts\, between traditions\, and between the self and the world. It gestures to the gap between certainty and the unknown/unknowable and the possibilities afforded by the translation of the untranslatable. While embracing the newness made possible only through the encounter with the other\, &ldquo\;friction&rdquo\; also signals its dangers of unresolved prejudice\, misunderstanding\, and rejection.</p>\n<p>This is a call for papers on &ldquo\;friction&rdquo\; in the broadest terms. We expect that the many interpretations of the theme will\, collectively\, add to our own appreciation of the necessity of difference in the face of a rising insistence on exceptionalism\, uniformity\, and purity and processes of purification.</p>\n<p>Send submissions as an email attachment to historyofphilosophysociety@gmail.com no later than January 6\, 2026. Submissions should consist of the full paper (35 minutes of reading time\, approx. 5000 words) and be prepared for anonymous review.</p>
