Cfp: "The Futures of Phenomenology," Department of Philosophy, National University of Ireland, Galway, March 6-7, 2010.

Spring Conference of Irish Philosophical Society. Keynote Speaker: Prof. Rudi Visker (Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium) The conference is dedicated to raising and addressing some of the fundamental issues and concerns in post-Husserlian thought. Hence, we are seeking papers which address the theme of phenomenological critique, its limits and its relevance, from both a historical and a contemporary perspective. Papers which take up the relationship between phenomenology and other philosophical traditions such as hermeneutics, feminism, Thomism, critical theory, analytic philosophy, etc., are also welcome. We invite individual e-mail submissions for papers on any aspect of Husserlian and post-Husserlian phenomenology, including critiques and applications of phenomenological thinking in any area of contemporary continental thought. Please send an abstract of approximately 750 words, which should be formatted for anonymous review and sent by email to Dr. Michael Dunne (michael.w.dunne@nuim.ie), Dr. Niall Keane (niall.keane@mic.ul.ie) and Dr. James McGuirk (James.McGuirk@hibo.no) by December 15th, 2009. In addition, on a separate sheet please include your full contact details. Submitters will be notified of the committee’s decision regarding their submission via e-mail no later than January 15th, 2010.
