Save the dates: SACP 2020, University of San Francisco, Oct 1-4, 2020

September 10, 2019 /

Dear all,

Mark your calendar!

The 52nd annual conference of the Society for Asian and Comparative Philosophy will be held at the University of San Francisco, San Francisco, CA, USA, Oct 1-4, 2020. The conference theme of the 2020 SACP is “One and Many.”

A Call for Paper will be out soon.

Those of you who attended the SACP at Bath Spa University might remember that at the general meeting, the University of Memphis was selected for the 2020 conference venue. We encountered a logistical problem in holding the 2020 conference at the University of Memphis and to avoid the problem, the Univ. of Memphis said that they could hold a conference in 2021.

See you in San Francisco in 2020!
