Call for Abstracts for the Wronging and Making Right: The Morality and Law of Remedial Practices conference (17-19 June 2024)

Call for Abstracts for the Wronging and Making Right: The Morality and Law of Remedial Practices conference (17-19 June 2024)

We are accepting submissions for the upcoming Wronging and Making Right: The Morality and Law of Remedial Practices conference which is going to be held on June 17-19th 2024 at the Jagiellonian University in Kraków. The deadline for CFA is set for 1st of March 2023

In this event, hosted by Interdisciplinary Centre for Ethics JU and co-organized by Giulio Fornaroli (Jagiellonian) and Nicolas Cornell (Michigan – Ann Arbor), we aspire to bring together some of the leading moral philosophers and legal scholars working on wrongs and making it right. We aim to discuss such topics as the nature and significance of interpersonal wronging, the role of directed duties and second-personal normativity, the relationship between corrective justice and remedial legal practices, the philosophical and doctrinal foundations of the law of torts, moral and metaphysical problems raised by historical reparations, the plausibility of wrongs and remedial practices in the epistemic sphere.

Speakers who have confirmed their presence include:

  • Carla Bagnoli (Modena & Reggio Emilia),
  • Christopher Bennett (Sheffield),
  • Rowan Cruft (Stirling),
  • Micha Gläser (Zurich),
  • Julian Jonker (Penn),
  • John Oberdiek (Rutgers),
  • Linda Radzik (Texas A &M),
  • Sandy Steel (Oxford),
  • Jay Wallace (Berkeley/Humboldt). 

Call for Abstracts
