Call for Papers: Thinking in Public: Christian Philosophers as Public Intellectuals
April 29-May 1, 2010
Calvin College
Grand Rapids, MI
Philosophers have often played a role as public intellectuals and social critics, reaching beyond the guild to speak to wider sectors of society. While the philosophical academy is an important "public," philosophical research can also serve a wider public. This conference encourages Christian philosophers to re-value the importance of "public intellectual work"–both for the wider society as well as the more specific "public" of the church. While any papers on any topic of interest to Christian philosophers are welcome, papers that directly intersect with the theme of "Christian philosophers as public intellectuals" are especially welcomed.
Submission deadline: January 8, 2010.
