Marquette University 2022 Graduate Philosophy Conference
The Philosophy of Care and Caring
CALL FOR PAPERS
The Philosophy Graduate Student Association (PGSA) of Marquette University and Marquette’s chapter of Minorities And Philosophy (MAP) are pleased
to invite submission of papers and abstracts for their graduate philosophy conference to be held on April 8-9, 2022.
We invite abstracts from any field of philosophy (e.g. ethics, epistemology, metaphysics, phenomenology, feminist philosophy, philosophy of race, philosophy of disability,
philosophy of mind, political philosophy, philosophy of law, bioethics, etc.) addressing various issues surrounding care and caring (e.g. What is care? How do we enact it?
How does our understanding of care shape our understanding of life and death? Is care a normative value? What duties of care do we owe each other? What has the feminist
ethics of care contributed to other philosophical fields? How has care and caring been understood throughout the history of philosophy? What does care mean in a pandemic?).
UPDATE We are shifting to a virtual conference due to the rising Covid cases in the Milwaukee area and to increase safety and accessibility.
Please let us know if you have any specific access needs.
Please submit an extended abstract of 500 to 1200 words sent as a PDF to Karolyn Burns
