Dear Colleagues,

 

It is my pleasure to announce the call for papers for the 42^nd annual IAPS conference. The official call for papers is below and attached. For any questions, please email me at[log in to unmask]

 

Yours truly,

John Gleaves

Interim Conference Chair International Association for the Philosophy of Sport

2014 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 42^nd annual 2014 IAPS meeting. The conference will be held September 3-6, 2014 in Natal (Brazil) sponsored by the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sur.

 

Abstracts are welcome on any area of philosophy of sport (broadly construed), 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 19, 2014.

 

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.
