NASSP Conference Awards for Graduate Students
To promote new scholarship focusing on social philosophy and to
encourage student participation, the North American Society for
Social Philosophy has established the NASSP Awards for Best
Graduate Student Papers. These awards give special recognition
to papers to be read by a graduate student at the NASSP annual
conference. The winners of the annual prizes will each receive
$300 upon attendance at the annual International Social
Philosophy Conference, and will be honored at the conference.
The prizes are awarded only to conference attendees, though
there is no obligation to use the money for conference-related
costs. Any graduate student enrolled in a program towards a
degree beyond the B.A. or first university diploma is eligible.
The paper should be consistent with the framework of those
presented at the International Social Philosophy Conference,
addressing any topic in social philosophy. The papers will be
evaluated by a three-member committee. The evaluation criteria
include originality and quality of philosophical writing. Papers
may be drawn from thesis work or intended for eventual
publication, must not exceed 3,000 words, and must conform to
the requirements set out by the APA for colloquium submissions
to annual Divisional meetings.
Deadline: Both abstracts and completed papers (not exceeding
3,000 words) must be prepared for anonymous review and must be
sent simultaneously to all members of the program committee by
March 15, 2011. Please indicate in your email that you wish to
be considered for the Graduate Student Award.
