Philosophers are increasingly interested in the challenges children and childhood pose for ethical theories and the normative concepts suitable for grasping the special situation of children. Children&rsquo\;s rights\, the well-being of children\, the place of children in theories of justice and the value of childhood have been discussed extensively and there is a vivid debate on issues like educational justice and the family as the central institution for childrearing. Still\, there are many controversies going on which need further examination\, e.g. regarding the vulnerability of children\, their agency\, the nature of childhood and the implications different phases of childhood have for the normative status of the child\, e.g. when considering the autonomy and rights of teenagers. In addition there is the question on what ethical theories can contribute to the evaluation and improvement of dangers children are facing currently\, like child poverty\, obesity or the economization of childhood.</p>\n<p>This conference wants to bring together philosophers working on these and related subjects. It aims to be a forum for the most recent developments in philosophy and childhood. Submissions are welcome from all fields of philosophy where the moral and political status of children is discussed: social and political philosophy\, philosophy of law\, medical ethics\, philosophy of education\, applied ethics etc.</p>\n<p>Please submit an abstract of 350 words ready for blind review using the submission form on this conference homepage. The deadline for submissions is 28 February 2017\, notifications will be sent out approximatly three weeks after this deadline. If you run into any troubles with your submission please email the organizers: gunter.graf[a]sbg.ac.at</p>
