Lyon, France, April 25th to 27th 2018. The main objective of this conference is to explore the specificities of a somewhat "tainted" feminist act of theorization, always in touch with the outside world, as well as with its manifestations within epistemological models from various disciplines. We will more particularly address philosophy and political science. Contributions could deal either with the elaboration of concepts for empirical research taking gender into account or with the adoption and revision of a theoretical model…

Feminist Philosophy Quarterly seeks submissions for a special issue on Epistemic Injustice and Recognition Theory. An important development in contemporary Anglo-American feminist epistemology has been the concept of epistemic injustice, which, as articulated for example by Miranda Fricker, has emerged out of and re-invigorated a rich line of work in feminist epistemology on epistemic exclusion, silencing, subordination, and motivated ignorance, including work by Linda…

LA CAMERA BLU. RIVISTA DI STUDI DI GENERE. (WWW.CAMERABLU.UNINA.IT). N.18, 2018 A cura di Laura Guidi e Leandro Sgueglia Senza abbandonare l’impostazione di fondo della nostra rivista, che mette a fuoco le relazioni di genere e non un ipotetico ‘soggetto’ donna, in questo numero intendiamo cogliere le peculiarità storica delle iniziative e delle voci femminili come testimoni e antagoniste della distruzione dell’ambiente. L’Italia dal secondo Novecento offre esempi di grandissimo interesse in tal senso: da Tina Merlin, che per prima…

The Department of Philosophy at Memorial University of Newfoundland will be hosting a philosophy graduate conference entitled Politics, Bodies, and the Earth from March 8th to 10th, 2018. Several thinkers throughout the philosophical tradition take up the relationship between metaphysics, the body, and politics.

For Arendt, plurality means that “men, not Man, live on the earth and inhabit the world”. This seemingly banal assumption affects her entire political theory considerably. Plurality entails two…
