The Faculty of Philosophy of the University of Groningen is pleased to host the

Second Annual Dutch Conference on Practical Philosophy

The Annual Dutch Conference on Practical Philosophy brings together ethicists and political philosophers as well as philosophers and researchers working in related fields to present and discuss work in practical philosophy. A central meeting place for members and Ph. D. students of the Netherlands School for Research in Practical Philosophy (Onderzoekschool Ethiek), it warmly welcomes non-members and researchers in practical philosophy from outside The Netherlands too.

Conference dates: 8 and 9 October, 2010

Venue: Het Kasteel, Groningen, The Netherlands

Keynote speakers: Onora O'Neill (Cambridge), Michael Smith (Princeton)

Registration: EUR 275 (members), EUR 350 (non-members), EUR 200 (PhD students), you can register by clicking here. You can also book a hotel via this site. As we will start around 1 pm on the first conference day, and end the second day around 6 pm, most participants will probably want to make a reservation for only one night. Please register and book your hotel now, as October is a very busy conference month in Groningen.

The other sessions will be devoted to papers received in response to this call for papers, and may address any topic within practical philosophy (broadly conceived). (The deadline for submission of abstracts has now passed.) We expect to finalize
the programme by the end of August.
