    CALL for PAPERS

    Value Inquiry in the Age of Globalization

    In conjunction with the 28th Conference on Value Inquiry (see
    http://www.valuenet.org/conferences/28thcvi.asp), we are pleased to announce
    the second Virtual Symposium on Value Inquiry. This virtual symposium will
    take place over the INTERNET from April 12 - May 12/2000. Participants may
    register for the virtual symposium at any time. See the instructions below.
    In addition, participants may leave the virtual symposium at any time. All
    email addresses will be deleted once the virtual symposium is finished.

    The theme of the 28th Conference on Value Inquiry is Values in an Age of
    Globalization. Areas of investigation for the conference include, but are
    not limited to: Social, Moral, Political, Economic, Environmental, and
    Aesthetic Values, the Teaching of Values, and the Resolution of Conflict
    between Competing Values and between Theory and Practice. Of particular
    interest are papers that discuss issues and conflicts of values that have
    arisen as a result of the social, political, economic, scientific, and
    technological developments involved with globalization.

    Papers may be practically or theoretically oriented. Topics may be
    disciplinary and focus on questions within a single field of value
    inquiry.Topics may be interdisciplinary and range over issues relating to
    different fields of value inquiry. Topics may even be metadisciplinary and
    address purely conceptual issues relating to evaluative considerations and
    conflicts in general, as well as their relation to non-evaluative matters.

    Papers should be limited to approximately 20 minutes reading time. You may
    submit your paper for the virtual symposium by email only. To send your
    abstract by email, send it to kencust@philosophical-services.com.
