31st Annual Conference on Value Inquiry, “The History of Value Inquiry”
April 10 – 12, 2003

University of North Dakota
Grand Forks, North Dakota

SUBMISSION DEADLINE: January 10, 2003
*****Early Submission Advised*****


The 31st Conference on Value Inquiry will be held at the University of North
Dakota April 10-12, 2003. Broad Participation is sought. Papers and
proposals for papers concerning the history of value inquiry, the
development of thought on values, evaluation, and fundamental evaluative
problems, are welcome. Early submission is advised. Papers may be
practically or theoretically oriented. Topics may be disciplinary and range
over issues within a single field of value inquiry such as ethics,
aesthetics, political theory, or economics. Topics may be interdisciplinary
and range over issues between two or more fields of value inquiry. Topics
may even be meta-disciplinary and range over purely conceptual issues about
values and evaluations in general, their relations to various evaluative
considerations and their relations to non-evaluative matters. Given the rich
history of value inquiry, participants in previous conferences may wish to
give thought to the historical influences on contemporary discussions of
problems that they have been drawn to.

Plenary Speakers:
Charles L. Griswold, Jr., Boston University
Virginia Held, City University of New York
