CFP: Philosophies of Philosophy

This conference marks 20 years of publication of the International Journal of Philosophical Studies (Taylor and Francis). From its very first volume published in 1993, IJPS has taken an inclusive view of philosophy and has aimed to publish articles of high quality from all Western philosophical traditions. Our goal always was to provide a forum for publishing on a broader range of issues and approaches to philosophy than has been the norm in other philosophical journals. It is therefore appropriate to mark 20 years of the publication of the journal, with a glance back to its predecessor Philosophical Studies- Ireland  (1951-1992),  through a conference that attempts to achieve a better understanding of philosophy as a discipline.

You are invited to submit abstracts of 250-300 words for papers addressing questions about philosophical methodologies and traditions, broadly construed. The deadline for the receipt of abstracts is March 30, 2013. Decisions regarding the acceptance of abstracts will be communicated by 15 April 2013. The conference papers should be no longer than 2000-2500 words – suitable for presentation in 20 minutes, followed by 10 minutes of question time. The conference will waive the speakers’ registration and subsistence fees.
