CFP: Understanding Value III

Call for Abstracts
We are pleased to announce our third annual conference on the theme of
value. Following on from the great success of our previous two conferences,
Understanding Value III will offer a supportive and stimulating environment
for graduate students and those recently awarded their PhD to share and
discuss their work.

A great many areas of philosophy are concerned with questions about value.
From the areas traditionally conceived as a part of ‘value theory’ – ethics,
metaethics, aesthetics, social and political philosophy – to epistemology,
metaphysics and philosophy of language, mind and psychology, there is an
enduring interest in questions about what value is, and about what is
valuable.

For this reason we invite submissions of abstracts of 500-1000 words. We
welcome submissions from graduate students, or those who have submitted a
PhD in the last two years. Submissions may take an analytic, continental,
historical or cross-disciplinary approach to any of the many problems
surrounding value, broadly construed.

Submissions must be emailed to [email protected] by 21st March 2014
