Call for Papers "Perspectives on Otherness: Transformative Possibilities for Contemporary Society" 3rd Annual Philosophy Graduate Student Conference University of Memphis Memphis, TN (USA) 16-17 February 2007 __________________________________________________ The 3rd annual Philosophy Graduate Student Conference will be held February 16-17, 2007 at the University of Memphis, in Memphis, TN. The purpose of the conference will be to explore different perspectives on the theme of otherness within contemporary society. This conference aims to provide a forum for graduate students to present their ideas concerning how new perspectives and critical analysis of otherness can influence views about society and provide new theoretical and practical possibilities for political theory and ethical theory. Our hope is to capture a wide array of interests and perspectives, tapping into multiple areas such as feminism, race theory, and work in contemporary applications to politics from both continental and analytic perspectives. The Philosophy Graduate Student Conference is sponsored by The University of Memphiss Student Activities Council.
