American Society for Bioethics and the Humanities [ASBH]
Philosophy Affinity Group
Call for Abstracts: 2008 Meeting

Connections between the practice of philosophy, in particular the
aspects of philosophy outside of practical ethics, and the understanding
of clinical ethics extend to many if not most areas associated with the
traditional practice of philosophy.  The understanding of these
philosophical endeavors, and their interaction with clinical ethics,
will have significant implications for the understanding and practice of
clinical ethics.

The Philosophy Affinity Group of ASBH welcomes abstracts of papers in
any area of philosophy that explore the interaction and/or value of that
area of philosophy for the understanding and practice of clinical or
medical ethics, for presentation at the ASBH Annual Meeting in
Cleveland, OH, October 23-26, 2008.  We welcome abstracts from all areas
of philosophy, though we will show a preference for abstracts discussing
aspects of philosophy outside of ethics.

Abstracts of 500-1000 words should be submitted electronically by July
15 to:

Stephen S. Hanson
Assistant Professor, Dept. of Philosophy
and Dept. of Family & Geriatric Medicine
University of Louisville
