Topic areas

Details

Take it to the bridge: 1. (In music) A phrase that connotes a change of key, a connecting but distinctive series of notes  

The Society for Analytical Feminism invites long abstracts (1000-1500 words) on all topics in feminist philosophy.  Accepted papers will be given 30 minutes of presentation time.

Submission deadline: May 30, 2012  

Analytical approaches to feminist topics are happily invited as usual.  In addition, special consideration will be given to abstracts that bridge feminist analytical and continental approaches, including the history of the analytic/continental “divide” in philosophy, mutually informing applications of analytic and continental philosophical methods to specific questions, analyses of the work of philosophers who bridge analytic and continental traditions or of collaborations between analytic and continental philosophers, methodological debates about the study of philosophy, including the value of different traditions, theoretical accounts of pluralism in philosophy.
