5th International Social Theory Consortium

Toronto, York University, June 6th to June 9th 2004

Call for Papers and Panel Discussions

The purpose of the International Social Theory Consortium and its annual
conference is to organize the International Social Theory community and to
provide an opportunity for interdisciplinary exchange on problems in
contemporary social theory broadly conceived. The conference will be several
days long, and papers are welcomed from scholars, faculty, and graduate
students who work in any of the many areas of social theory. In addition, the
2004 conference will host a day long workshop on the theme of discord. Possible
areas of exploration for the workshop are: discord as a disenchantment of
conflict, discord as a deepening of disagreement, and discord as a promise of
dissonance. We are particularly interested in discord in social thought as well
as in a critical examination of the artifacts of discord. Conference organizers
invite submission of 150 word abstracts for papers intended for the discord
workshop. We also invite submission of abstracts for papers and proposals for
panels for the general conference.
Please note the deadline for abstracts for the discord workshop is Sept 15
2003. Otherwise, please send abstracts by December 20 2003 to The Graduate
Programme in Social and Political Thought, York University, 4700 Keele Street,
Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M3J 1P3
