Call for papers & Submissions

The International Association for the Philosophy of Sport invites the submission of abstracts to be considered for presentation at the 40th annual 2012 IAPS meeting. The conference will be held September 12-15, 2012 in Porto, Portugal.
 
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 five IAPS peers will review abstracts. Contributors will be notified about the status of their abstracts by May 14, 2012.

 

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