*APPC 2009: The Australasian Postgraduate Philosophy Conference *This year's APPC will be held April 15-17, 2009. This year's conference is co-hosted by Macquarie University and The ANU and will take place at Macquarie University, Sydney, NSW.
Submissions for papers are invited in all areas of philosophical interest as well as other disciplines engaging with philosophy. The 2009 conference seeks to encourage connection not only between philosophy postgraduates but also between philosophers and philosophically minded researchers working in other disciplines. To this end, papers from traditional areas of philosophy as well as from other disciplines engaging with philosophy are encouraged. Also, to display philosophy's relevance in public life, this year's conference will include a public lecture by a prominent philosopher addressing current social concerns. There are two options for submission. 1. Single papers: Deliver a complete paper. 2. Work-in-progress: Present work that you are currently in the process of developing and use the discussion time to receive valuable feedback. Those submitting complete papers will be entered into a contest for best paper to win one of two monetary prizes. Sessions will consist of 20-25 minute paper presentations followed by 15-20 minutes of discussion. Paper submissions may be between 3,000 and 6,000 words in length. Abstracts should be no longer than 300 words. Abstracts and papers, formatted for blind review, must be submitted electronically via our website http://www.phil.mq.edu.au/appc. The deadline for abstract submission is March 1st 2009. Full papers for competition consideration are due March 1st 2009. REGISTRATION IS OPEN NOW. All candidates will be informed of the result of their review by March 15th. For more information about this year's conference please visit the conference website at http://www.phil.mq.edu.au/appc.
