AAP Conference 2008
Sunday 6 -
Friday 11 July
CALL FOR PAPERS
Papers in any area of philosophy are welcomed.
The conference this year features some special SYMPOSIUM STREAMS and a
number of GENERAL STREAMS. Whether a stream runs or not will depend on
the number of papers submitted for it. New streams may be created in response
to demand. Contributions to the symposium streams are particularly invited.

Submission of Titles and
Abstracts: The upper word limit for an
abstract is 300 words. There is also a limit of one abstract submission per
primary author. Following established AAP practice, we will accept as many
offers of papers as possible within the constraints of the conference schedule.
The conference organiser, however, is unable to guarantee all papers will be
included on the program. All accepted abstracted will be published in the
conference program.
DEADLINES FOR
SUBMISSION
Titles and abstracts of all
papers, or proposals for new streams, should be submitted via the online AAP2008 Registration Form by 25 May 2008.
PRESENTERS
SHOULD NOTE THE FOLLOWING
·
253 sessions (= 180 standard sessions + 41 long sessions + 32 short
symposium sessions) in total are available. Any paper submitted to us will be
accepted until all sessions run out.
·
There will be up to nine parallel streams at the conference and always
the chance of a small audience, especially if you choose to give your paper at
a long session or there is a well known speaker scheduled at the same time as
you.
·
Arrangements for the chairing of sessions are fairly informal. Speakers
usually request a friend or colleague to chair their session, or else leave it
to a member of the audience to volunteer. Please indicate in the online
registration form if you would like to have the conference organiser
pre-arrange a chair for you.
·
Data-projection facilities are available. But we recommend that you
bring your own computer. Please indicate in the registration form if you
require a data projector, an overhead projector, and/or a white board.
Sessions are assigned in the FIRST-REGISTERED-FIRST-SERVED fashion.
To secure a place on the timetable
(especially If you want a long session), please register and pay ASAP.
