Deadline for IAPS Conference Abstracts Extended!

The deadline for this call for abstracts has been extended to 15th April 2013

2013 IAPS Conference – Call for Papers
www.iaps.net


The International Association for the Philosophy of Sport invites the submission of abstracts to be considered for presentation at the 41st annual 2013 IAPS meeting. The conference will be held September 4-8, 2013 at California State University Fullerton.

Abstracts are welcome on any area of philosophy of sport, including metaphysics, epistemology, aesthetics, and ethics, and from any theoretical approach, including analytic philosophy and critical theory. While IAPS recognizes, values, and encourages interdisciplinary approaches and methodologies, acceptance is contingent on the philosophical content of the project. Emerging scholars are encouraged to submit works in progress.

A Program Committee of three IAPS peers will review abstracts. Contributors will be notified about the status of their abstracts by May 20, 2013

Proposals for round table and panel discussions, including a tentative list of participants, are also welcome and should follow the same format as paper abstracts.
