We would like to welcome submissions for World Philosophies, the 2nd
Annual Philosophy Graduate Conference, at the University of Hull, to
be held 20th and 21st of June, 2013

Topic:
Throughout the Twentieth Century, Western Philosophy has been divided
into two factions: Anglo-American analytic philosophy and Continental
philosophy dominated by phenomenology and post-phenomenological
philosophies. Anglo- American philosophy seems thus to have been cut
off from the rest of the world, and seems to have evolved in relative
isolation. The aim of this conference is to allow analytic philosophy
to engage with other philosophies from around the world. 

- In recent years, there has been a growing interest in phenomenology
and what it can contribute to modern philosophy of mind. 

- An interest in Asian philosophy is beginning to appear, particularly
in ethics and moral philosophy. 

- Islamic philosophy, African philosophy and pre-Columbian American 
philosophies may also have much to contribute to many modern debates. 

- Any other philosophical traditions which can have an input into
analytic debates or any of the above traditions are also welcome.

In this conference we would like to encourage submissions from
graduates and early career researchers dealing with non-analytic
philosophies and what they can contribute, either to modern analytic
debates, or to each other. There is no particular area of philosophy
which particularly encourages this debate. The area of philosophy is
therefore open, so long as submissions reflect on the relation
between different philosophical traditions. 

Keynote speaker: Dr. Katherine Morris, Oxford

Submissions should be approximately 3,000 words in length, suitable
for presentation in 30 minutes, and emailed in word document or pdf
to [email protected], by the 31st March 2013.
Notification of acceptance by 3rd May 2013
