ICNAP IV* The Interdisciplinary Coalition of North American Phenomenologists
Fordham University New York May 25-27, 2012
The Interdisciplinary Coalition of North American Phenomenologists (ICNAP) calls for abstracts/paper summaries to be submitted for inclusion in our 2012 meeting at Fordham University May 25-27. Founded in 2009, ICNAP (www.icnap.org) is committed to fostering interdisciplinary connections with phenomenology. Founded by colleagues from Architecture, Communicology, Philosophy, Political Science, Psychology, and Sociology, ICNAP continues to expand its interdisciplinary connections.
CONFERENCE THEME: Interdisciplinarity Beyond The Academy: Lived Worlds Of Consequence For Academic Work
We welcome works that feature phenomenology in all academic disciplines. In addition to presentations employing phenomenology in single disciplines, we are interested in work that explicitly brings to light the full force of phenomenological interdisciplinarity in refiguring the scope and relevance of academic and non-academic work alike. The ICNAP IV conference will help us address the following questions: How does phenomenological interdisciplinarity challenge our current understanding and practice of the scholarly and academic life? How does phenomenological interdisciplinarity challenge or refigure our understanding or approach within professional contexts outside of the academy? How does phenomenological interdisciplinarity challenge or refigure our understanding of pressing social issues of our day? We are now calling for a 500-word summary of the paper that you would like to present. We are anticipating three (3) days of meetings with 50-minute sessions that should have approximately 30 minutes of presentation (ca. 10 pages or 3,000 words) and 20 minutes for discussion. Please include the paper title with your name and discipline on the cover sheet. Evaluation will be anonymous. We are also accepting abstracts for a limited number of 75- minute panel sessions. If you are submitting for a panel, please include the title of the program, the names of the chair and all presenters, and a 300-word abstract for each presenter. No more than two submissions per person. Please make sure your submission is in Word .doc or .docx format (no PDFs) so that we can read and work with the text easily. Volunteers for panel moderators are also welcome.
Summaries due by February 1, 2012. Acceptances notified by March 15, 2012 CALL EXTENDED TO FEBRUARY 15 Submit Abstracts to Jacqueline M. Martinez, Program Chair, as email attachment (jmartinez@asu.edu).
