SUMMARY:Normativity and Gender Workshop
UID:20260418T203155Z-iCalPlugin-Grails@philevents-web-f5d4878dd-dnjxp
TZID:Europe/Helsinki
LOCATION:Tampere\, Finland
DESCRIPTION:<p>It is natural to theorize gender within a normative framework: gender is not a neutral classificatory category\, but one which encodes evaluative assumptions\, sets standards of correctness\, and generates reasons and obligations for individuals. At the same time\, philosophical thought about normativity itself - for instance\, about the nature of agency\, reasons\, authority\, or objectivity - has been shaped by socially situated assumptions. As a result\, the intersection between gender and normativity as areas of philosophical theorizing can be particularly fruitful\, enhancing our understanding of both categories and motivating revisions to our existing accounts of either.&nbsp\; &nbsp\;</p>\n<p>We invite abstracts for three contributed talks that explore issues concerning normativity\, gender\, and their connections. Abstracts that lie a the intersections between different fields or subfields of philosophy are also welcome. Possible topics can include but are not limited to:&nbsp\; &nbsp\;</p>\n<ul>\n<li>the nature of gender norms&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>feminist or queer approaches to meta-ethics&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>the role of normativity in the metaphysics of gender&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>normativity and the use of gender terms&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>amelioration as a normative project&nbsp\;</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Submissions from underrepresented groups are particularly encouraged.</p>\n<p><u>Abstract details&nbsp\;</u></p>\n<p><strong>Length:</strong> 750-1000 words\, suitable for a 30-minute presentation with a 45-minute Q&amp\;A\, or a 45-minute presentation with a 30-minute Q&amp\;A.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p><strong>Deadline:</strong> 15 March 2026&nbsp\;</p>\n<p><strong>Notification of Acceptance:</strong> End of March&nbsp\;</p>\n<p><strong>Submission:</strong> Please submit your abstracts to normativityandgender@gmail.com.
