THE 17TH ANNUAL MARK L. SHAPIRO GRADUATE PHILOSOPHY CONFERENCE

Hosted by the Department of Philosophy at Brown University on Feb 17-18, 2024

Special topic: Philosophy and the Real World

Keynote #1: Simone Gubler (UNC)

We welcome submissions on the special topic, broadly construed, in any area of philosophy.

Topics may include, by no means exhaustively: what is the relevance of philosophy to practical action in the "real world", how to engage non-philosophers, how to engage in public philosophy, topics in applied ethics and social and political philosophy, non-ideal vs. non-ideal and applied vs. abstract theorizing, questions raised by the natural and social sciences, etc...

We also invite submissions of high quality work in any area of philosophy to be considered for presentation.

Please see call for papers for submission details
