EFAK X\, the Tenth Annual Estonian Philosophy Conference\, will take place in \;Tartu\, from September 25 to September 27\, 2014\, organized by the Institute \;of Philosophy and Semiotics of the University of Tartu. This year&rsquo\;s topic is \;&ldquo\;disagreements&rdquo\;.
Confirmed Keynote Speaker: Prof. Esa Diaz Leon (University of Manitoba / \;University of Barcelona)
Call for contributed papers:
We invite contributions to EFAK X: Disagreements. We particularly welcome \;contributions on the topic of disagreements\, but will also consider \;philosophical papers in all areas of philosophy.
EFAK X will have three different kinds of talk:
- at least two invited keynotes (45 minutes presentation + 30 minutes \;discussion).
- contributed plenary talks (35 minutes presentation + 25 minutes discussion)
- and contributed parallel talks (20 minutes presentation + 10 minutes \;discussion)
The acceptance of contributed papers and the division between contributed \;parallel and contributed plenary talks will be decided on the basis of blind \;peer review by the scientific committee. The idea is that a small number of \;the very best papers will get more time for presentation and discussion.
GUIDELINES FOR THE SUBMISSION OF ABSTRACTS
Abstracts must be written in English or Estonian and prepared for blind \;review. Please submit a relatively detailed abstract of up to 800 words\, \;outlining not only the position defended but also the argument for that \;position. Abstracts should indicate the title of the paper and the area(s) \;of philosophy to which it belongs. Abstracts should have the following \;format: Times New Roman\, font size 10\, 1\,5 line spacing. Submissions should \;be in doc format (not pdf) and sent to efakx@ut.ee. Please include your \;contact details and your affiliation in the main body of the email.
