The
North Texas Philosophical Association (NTPA) announces a Call
For Papers for its 43rd Meeting April 8-10, 2010 on the campus
of the University of North Texas, Denton. The NTPA welcomes papers
from all philosophical perspectives. Deadline for submissions
is January 29, 2010.
The
NTPA invites Individual Papers and Panel Proposals from all philosophical
perspectives. Individual participants should submit a completed
paper of no more than 3000 words and an abstract of between 100
- 200 words, though on rare occasions a submission will be approved
on the basis of just the abstract. Panel participants should submit
a title and a proposal for the whole panel (approximately 500
words), together with the completed papers.
The NTPA
employs a blind review process for non-invited papers. Names of
authors and organizations should appear only on a separate cover
sheet and be omitted from proposals, papers and footnotes. To
apply for the Graduate Student award, submissions must indicate
intent on the cover page. In recent years, the volume of submissions
has precluded the acceptance of some papers worthy of presentation
at the meeting.
Email papers,
proposals, and abstracts to: dale.wilkerson@unt.edu
