We invite the submission of papers related to (but not limited to) the following topics: meta/normative ethics, bio/medical ethics, engineering ethics, ethics of science and technology, information ethics, environmental ethics, business ethics, feminist ethics, international/global ethics.
 
Since the main theme of this year's conference is 'Risk, Justice and Liberty', we particularly encourage contributions addressing the theme; however, we also welcome submissions on topics that address social, cultural, political, economic areas of applied ethics beyond the conference theme.

Those participants who wish to present papers are requested to submit a 300–500 word abstract in a MS-Word file (.doc) to CAEP ([email protected]) by Saturday, June 30, 2012. All papers accepted are considered for publication in the printed and electronic formats.
 

Up to ten travel awards of between 20,000 and 40,000 JPY (equivalent to approx. 240–480 USD) are available for graduate students and non-tenured scholars. Priority is given to overseas students/non-tenured scholars who present papers. Instructions and an application form are available from the CAEP webpage:
