Society for
Philosophy in the Contemporary World
Join
the Society for Philosophy in the Contemporary World in a
venture that seeks to bring more fun, warm fellowship, and
greater originality to philosophy. Membership in SPCW is
open to all persons with a deep and abiding interest in the
future of philosophy in the contemporary world.

Description of the
Society
SPCW was founded
in August 1993 by philosophers who had gathered at the very
edge of Rocky Mountain National Park for a conference on
"The Community, the Family, and Culture." Exhilarated by the
unique combination of stimulating philosophy, good fun and
fellowship permeating the conference, they resolved to
expand these opportunities by creating SPCW as a nonprofit,
democratically organized Society.
Our founding
members include scholars - women and men - from analytical,
Continental, American, multicultural, and post-modern
traditions. Forty-nine presentations were made at the 1994
Annual conference on "Philosophy and Cultural Diversity in
Estes Park, Colorado.
As a society, we
are committed to the application of philosophy to
understanding and solving contemporary social problems
broadly conceived. At the same time, we are equally
committed to a continuing dialogue about the best ways
philosophy might be applied in the contemporary world.
Hence, SPCW promotes work in applied philosophy, philosophy
and public policy, philosophy of the professions, race, and
gender studies, environmental philosophy, educational
philosophy, and a range of multicultural issues.
We are also
committed to improving the way philosophy is conducted. For
this reason, we emphasize the following:
(1) We invite
original, creative, and unconventional thinking. We
encourage submissions
for our conference and to our journal,
Philosophy in the
Contemporary World,
that cross disciplinary boundaries or represent new
departures.
(2) We emphasize
fellowship. Included in conference arrangements are
opportunities for recreation together (as well as time for
solitude), such as organized hikes, cultural or historical
trips, and evening events. We will select, whenever
possible, conference sites that enable participants to take
meals together in a dining commons where they can be joined
by friends and family members.
(3) Our annual
conferences are "family friendly." We seek to avoid the
separation of philosophers' profession personae from their
family and affective connections. Thus our conference
provide opportunities to combine serious professional
activities with family vacations and friendship in a
spectacular and relaxing environment.
(4) We
emphatically believe in equality and mutual respect. We are
established by constitution as a democratic nonprofit
Society. We do not offer honoraria for speakers, nor do we
organize plenary sessions or concurrent sessions. All
conference presenters are offered equal attention.
(5) We have a
special interest in assisting the professional development
of members. Hence, in addition to established philosophers,
we welcome the fellowship of graduate students,
nontraditional philosophers, and person with other
non-philosophical specializations. We aim to provide the
atmosphere for a genuinely positive and supportive exchange
of views. The editorial board of the journal is committed to
the timely and careful review of submissions and to
assisting authors to revise promising manuscripts.
Join the founding
members of SPCW in a challenging venture that should have a
major impact not only on the way we think about and do
philosophy but also (hopefully) on the manner in which
contemporary problems could be solved.
