CFP: AAPT Studies v.7

The call for papers for AAPT Studies in Pedagogy, v.7 is out.

The theme for the volume is What and Who is Philosophy For?

From the call:

What and Who is Philosophy For? In light of the changes to our world and the field of philosophy, we take seriously the need to think again about what we are doing and why we are doing it when we bring philosophy to students. The context within which college teaching and students’ and faculty’s lives take place continues to change in profound ways, technologically, economically, politically, and socially. We want to explore the implications of these changes for what the purpose of philosophy, and philosophy pedagogy, is and should be.

Questions about what philosophy is for are also inextricable from who philosophy is for. The discipline has begun (slowly and belatedly) to address issues of diversity and inclusion. This effort to understand and ameliorate oppressions, in many (incomplete and still nascent) ways, reveal a shift in how philosophers think about philosophy’s purposes and for whom philosophy should be structured.

The deadline for essay submission is March 7, 2022.

Check it out the full call and details at https://aaptstudies.org/cfp-v7/.
