    28th Conference on Value Inquiry

    Values in an Age of Globalization

    Plenary Speakers
    Julius Moravcsik, Stanford University
    George Sher, Rice University

    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 abstract by email or regular mail. To send your abstract by
    email, send it to dodsonke@hal.lamar.edu. If you are sending your abstract
    by regular mail, please send two copies of an abstract, not more than 450
    words, to either:
