:: Calls :: The Northwestern University Society for the Theory of Ethics and Politics (NUSTEP) will be holding its 10th Annual conference at Northwestern University on May 19–21, 2016. The keynote speakers will be Nomy Arpaly and Pamela Hieronymi. Submissions deadline is Feb. 15, 2016.
The organisers welcome submissions from faculty and graduate students, as some sessions will be reserved for student presentations. Submit an essay of approximately 4000 words. Essay topics in all areas of ethical theory and political philosophy will be considered, although some priority will be given to essays that take up themes from the work of Nomy Arpaly and Pamela Hieronymi: addiction, agency, blame, deliberation, desire, forgiveness, free will, habituation, rationality, reasons, responsibility, trust, and virtue. Essays should be prepared for blind review in word, rtf, or pdf format.
Graduate submissions should be sent by e-mail to nustep.grad.conference@gmail.com; faculty submissions should be sent by e-mail to kebelsduggan@northwestern.edu. The deadline for submissions is February 15, 2016. Notices of acceptance will be sent by March 15.
