DESCRIPTION:<p>*Expanded Topic* High quality submissions welcome on any philosophical topic. (Submissions on primary topic will be given preference.)</p>\n<p>Analytic philosophy is often derided as overly esoteric\, focused on matters of little consequence in day-to-day life. This is particularly directed at non-value theoretic areas: Metaphysics\, Epistemology\, Philosophy of Language\, Philosophy of Mind\, Philosophy of Science\, Philosophy of Mathematics\, and Logic. Does any greater good result from our countless hours spent in armchairs?</p>\n<p>This conference aims to explore the value of non-value theoretic areas of philosophy.&nbsp\;Questions to address include\, but are not limited to:</p>\n<p>What value does [any area of] non-value theoretic philosophy have\, if any? What is it for work to have value? Can we use non-value theoretic philosophy to effect political change\, and if so\, how? How do we get analytic philosophy out of the conference room and into the real world? Do we need to? Has non-value theoretic philosophy brought significant change to humanity in the past? Does academic work need to be socially relevant to be valuable? What would solving any of the greatest and longest-standing problems in the history of philosophy do for humanity? Is the result significant enough to justify all of the time we devote?</p>\n<p><strong>SUBMISSION GUIDELINES:</strong></p>\n<p>&middot\;&nbsp\; All submissions must be prepared for blind review\, with no identifying information (name\, affiliated institution\, etc.).</p>\n<p>&middot\;&nbsp\; Submitted abstracts must be between 500 &ndash\; 1000 words in length.</p>\n<p>&middot\;&nbsp\; Submitted abstracts must be received as .doc\, .docx\, or .pdf files.</p>\n<p>&middot\; &nbsp\;*Extended* Submission deadline: <strong>February 15\, 2017</strong>.</p>\n<p>&middot\;&nbsp\; Submit to: <a href="mailto:CUNYGradConf@gmail.com">CUNYGradConf@gmail.com</a></p>\n<p>&middot\;&nbsp\; Accepted papers will be announced by the end of February 2017.</p>
