CALL FOR PAPERS
Religion, Human Dignity, and Human Rights: New Paradigms for Russia and the West.
A Conference in Honor of Nikolai Berdyaev at 150
November 1-3, 2024
Submission deadline: June 1, 2024.
The Hamilton Center at the University of Florida and the Northwestern University Research Initiative in Russian Philosophy, Literature, and Religious Thought are calling for paper proposals for a conference in honor of the 150th birthday of Nikolai Berdyaev, a Russian émigré who brought to Europe a Russian religious philosophy of personalism extolling human freedom, dignity, and rights. We invite papers exploring any aspect of religion, dignity, and rights in Russia and/or the West, from multiple disciplinary perspectives. Conference participants should consider the option to produce papers suitable (in their final form) for publication in an eventual edited volume.
The conference will take place from November 1-3, 2024. John Witte, Jr., Robert W. Woodruff Professor of Law and McDonald Distinguished Professor at Emory University, will deliver the keynote address.
