Ethical Theory and Moral Practice invites proposals for a special issue on topics interfacing contemporary ethics and Asian philosophies/comparative philosophy involving Asian traditions.

This dedicated issue forms part of the journal’s ongoing efforts to expand the repertoire of traditions, ideas and approaches typically considered in mainstream ethical philosophy, and to foster dialogue and engagement across cultures and methodologies. More specifically, we aim to:

• introduce important ethical topics in Asian and comparative traditions to mainstream philosophical audiences in a way that is clear and accessible, and enable dialogue among scholars working on similar issues in different traditions,
• advance inquiry into the foundations and methodology of the study of ethics through engagements with traditions in which philosophizing takes significantly different forms,
• produce new conceptual resources for doing philosophy,
• identify promising topics and new lines of inquiry that might meaningfully be brought into contemporary philosophical debates.

The topical range and format remain open, but the special issue should be in line with the general concerns and orientations of the journal and seek to make the content accessible to its general readership. In particular, please note that given the journal’s profile we cannot consider submissions which are exclusively of a historical or exegetical character. Some possible approaches include:

• a focus on a specific theme that is significant in both a particular Asian tradition/set of traditions and in current philosophical discussion, and that meaningfully engages both,
• collaborations involving scholars with expertise in a particular Asian tradition/set of traditions and in contemporary ethics,
• explorations of methodological issues and problems involved in the cross-cultural of ethics.

Deadline for the first round of applications: October 1, 2020

Guidelines

Special Issues are a collection of 6-9 original papers, accompanied by an introduction usually written by the guest editors. Proposals have a maximum word count of 2.000 words and provide information about

• the guest editor(s)
• the topic and rationale of the collection envisaged
• the authors
• the planned contributions (via short abstracts)

They should also include an explanation of the importance of the topic and the selection of authors and themes.

Please send proposals to the Editors-in-Chief Marcus Düwell (m.duwell@uu.nl) and Thomas Schramme (t.schramme@liverpool.ac.uk).

Professors Eirik Harris (Hong Kong Baptist University) and Henrique Schneider (Nordakademie) are guest editing volume 8.2 of the Journal Culture and Dialogue (Brill).

The guest editors seek 7-10 papers of high quality on topics related to Chinese philosophy, particularly engaging with all different types of Confucianism. This can occur from a perspective rooted within Chinese philosophy as well as in a comparative approach. The guest editors seek to put together a diverse special issue covering Classical Confucianism as well as contemporary themes for an audience that includes non-specialists in Chinese philosophy.

The guest editors are especially looking for contributions on:

• Virtues and the state of (Chinese) philosophy of virtues
• Virtue politics and its limits
• Virtue as an ideal vs. realistic approach in ethics, political theory, and international relations
• The relationship between virtues and rituals
• Philosophy of rituals: past, present, and future
• Meritocracy and roles
• The virtues and vices of meritocracy
• Different versions of meritocracy in Chinese (and Confucian) philosophies
• Contemporary issues in Confucianism
• Contemporary philosophical criticisms of Confucianism

If you are interested in submitting, send you abstract, draft paper, or full paper until March 15^th to Henrique Schneider (henri.schneider@protonmail.ch) and Eirik Harris (eiriklangharris@gmail.com). Once accepted, final versions of the papers will be due June 1^st.

DUE TO THE ONGOING SITUATION, THE SACP PANEL HAS DECIDED TO CANCEL FOR AAR 2020

SACP Call for Papers
2020 AAR Annual Meeting, Boston
November 21-34, 2020

The Society for Asian and Comparative Philosophy invites you to submit your paper or panel proposal for the AAR annual meeting 2020.

The SACP will host at least one panel at this year’s AAR meeting. The panel will be scheduled on Saturday (11/21) in the morning, before the start of the official AAR program. Depending on the number of proposals, a second panel will be added back to back to the first SACP panel.

As for the topic of the paper or panel proposal, it is wide open. We will take into account the relevance of the topic to the vital issues that concern our very survival on this planet. We also welcome an “intercultural” perspective incorporated into your proposal, rather than a proposal that dwells on the technical exegesis of a single tradition. The deadline of the submission of your proposal is March 31, 2020.
