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.

Please submit your

paper proposal (your name, the title of the paper, and an abstract of 250-300 words)

or

panel proposal (your name and the names of the panelists; the title of the panel, and the abstract of the panel in 250 words; the title of each individual paper plus an abstract of 200 words for each paper)

DUE TO THE ONGOING SITUATION, THE PANIKKAR SYMPOSIUM HAS DECIDED TO CANCEL FOR AAR 2020

Call for Papers

SACP Raimon Panikkar Symposium on Diatopical Hermeneutics

AAR Boston, November 20, 2020

At the annual meeting of the American Academy of Religion in Boston, the SACP will host the annual symposium on Raimon Panikkar and his intercultural-intrareligious thought. This symposium, offered in addition to the regular SACP panel(s), has been made possible by private donations. It will take place on November 20 (Friday), the day before the beginning of the official AAR program in order to avoid scheduling conflicts.

Last year in San Diego, we looked into the traditional wisdom that may ground us face the issue of climate change, which continues to be one of the vital issues of us all. We still seek to formulate a SACP resolution that has a practical bearing upon our professional responsibility.

This year, we will examine the fundamental importance of “hermeneutics” in our profession, and especially focus on the significance of Panikkar’s “Diatopical Hermeneutics” as a practical tool for reaching better understanding not only of oneself, but of one another, and of intercultural realities of our time, which cannot be divorced from their historical roots.

We hope that our sustained endeavor may produce yet another book, as the symposium has already resulted in a significant contribution to the field: Raimon Panikkar: A Companion (Cambridge: James Clark, 2018), ed., Peter Phan & Young-chan Ro.

Please submit your proposal of 200-300 words to Dr. Michiko Yusa at michiko.yusa@gmail.com. The deadline for the submission is March 31, 2020.
