Yet, Critical Philosophers of Race have tended to confine > themselves to an analysis of racial problems that arise in the politics, and > against the historical background, of anglophone North America. This > parochial focus has given the false impression that the Critical Philosophy > of Race is irrelevant outside of the US and Canada. For this reason, in this, > the first of three annual international conferences on the Critical > Philosophy of Race, we will challenge this false impression, by showcasing > work that demonstrates the relevance of the Critical Philosophy of Race (a) > to the British Isles. Future conferences will showcase work that demonstrates > the relevance of the Critical Philosophy of Race (b) to the European Union > and (c) to the wider world outside of anglophone North America. The aim of > these three conferences is, successively, to globalise the Critical > Philosophy of Race. > > Confirmed speakers: > > Dr Robert Bernasconi (Prof of Philosophy & African American Studies, Penn > State) > Dr Meena Dhanda (Reader in Philosophy and Cultural Politics, Wolverhampton) > Dr Brian Klug (Philosophy, University of Oxford) > Dr Gabriella Beckles-Raymond (philosopher and educational administrator) > Dr Albert Atkin (Lecturer in Philosophy, Macquarie) > Dr Nicholas Kwesi Tsri (Postdoctoral Fellow School of Social Justice, UCD) > Dr Annabelle Lever (Associate Professor of Normative Political Theory, Geneva) > Dr Nathaniel Coleman (Fellow, ICwS & Research Associate Philosophy, UCL) > > To register for the conference, please log in to this site > http://goo.gl/HdQyom and identify your registration category. > Fees include all tea and coffee breaks. > Early registration is srongly advised. > > Registration Category Early Bird Rate (ends 9 May) Rate from 10 May > Current UK Philosophy Faculty and Students & IP members 15.00 20.00 > Academic & Student (not included above) 30.00 40.00 > Standard 50.00 60.00 > Programme Organiser: Dr Nathaniel Coleman > > Enquiries to [email protected] and [email protected].
