\nThe Midwest U.S. Division of the Society for Women in Philosophy invites papers in all areas of feminist philosophy\, theory\, and praxis\, including but not limited to ethics\, social/political philosophy\, phenomenology\, existentialism\, epistemology\, and metaphysics. U.S. Midwest SWIP is interested in enriching discussions about contemporary social and political issues\, and we welcome work that interrogates how such issues intersect with race\, gender\, ability\, and class.
