Theoretical papers on all topics within the areas of feminist ethics and
social theory are welcome. The program committee aims to create a conference
with a diverse group of presenters and a diversity of philosophical topics
and styles. Proposals for presentations other than papers (e.g., workshops,
discussions, etc.) should include detailed descriptions demonstrating that
the ideas are as developed as they would be in a paper.



FEAST strongly encourages members of groups that are underrepresented in
both the discipline of philosophy and at feminist philosophy conferences to
send submissions.



*Submissions, for either paper or panel sessions, should consist of papers
no longer than 3,000 words and abstracts of 100-250 words.*



Please send your submission, in one document (a Word file, please, so that
abstracts can be posted), to [log in to unmask] by February 28, 2011.  Your
document should include: paper title, abstract, paper, with no identifying
information. The word count (max. 3,000) should appear on the top of the
first page of your paper. Panel organizers, please send the panel title and
all three abstracts and papers in one document, along with word counts
(3,000 for each paper). In the body of the email message, please include:
your paper or panel title, name, institutional affiliation, e-mail address,
surface mail address, and phone number. All submissions will be anonymously
reviewed.
