We hereby invite abstracts for papers in phenomenology and related areas of philosophy, such as critical theory, feminist philosophy, and the post-Kantian tradition widely conceived. We welcome proposals for individual papers from senior researchers as well as from graduate students. Proposals for joint panels on current topics or recently published books will also be considered.

The proposals should be prepared for blind review and prepared in the following manner:

A) Proposals for individual papers should consist of two separate documents containing the following:

  2. A separate cover letter including the following information: title of presentation; name, affiliation and contact information.

B) Proposals for joint panels (one individual sends the proposal on behalf of all the participants) should consist of two separate documents containing the following:

  1. The title and a short description of the topic of the panel; and an abstract from each of the participants (maximum 300 words each).
  2. A separate cover letter including the following information: the title of the panel; names and affiliations of all the participants; contact information of the individual in charge of the panel.

To submit a proposal, send the documents as email attachments to the following address: nosp2022@sh.se. Please ensure that the subject line of the email reads: NoSP 2022 Proposal. Deadline for submission is: 3 January, 2022. Decisions will be communicated by the latest at the end January 2022.
