CFP: LSE Graduate Political Theory 2023

The LSE Department of Government is pleased to announce that its Ninth Annual Political Theory Graduate Conference will be held on Tuesday30 and Wednesday31 May 2023. 

We are delighted to announce that the conference will feature keynotes from Professor Derrick Darby (Rutgers University) and Dr. Jeanne Morefield (Oxford University).  
 
The aim of the conference is to give graduate students working in the field of political theory (broadly conceived to include critical and legal theory as well as the history of political thought) an opportunity to present and receive feedback on their projects from peers and LSE faculty and build a wider community of graduate political theorists across the UK, Europe and beyond.  

We are planning to hold the conference completely in person. 
 
If you wish to present a paper, please send an anonymized abstract of no more than 500 words, free of any identifying information, and in Word format, to [email protected] by April 9th 2023. Papers on any theme or topic within political theory and political philosophy will be considered. Please also include, in the body of the e-mail, your name and institutional affiliation. All abstracts will undergo a double-blind review process. We particularly encourage applications from women and other under-represented groups. 

We aim to notify all applicants about the outcome of their submission by the end of April. 

For any further questions, please contact: Julia Costet ([email protected]) or Stephanie Wanga ([email protected]).
