The ISCP plans to hold an invited Related Scholarly Organization (RSO) session at the 2024 meeting of the American Academy of Religion (AAR), to take place Nov 23-26 in San Diego, CA. We invite the submission of abstracts (250-300 words) for individual papers for consideration. Presentation time will be limited to 20 minutes to allow for discussion.

Please note that participants in RSO sessions are required to register for the AAR meeting.

Please include with your abstract your name, affiliation, and contact information (email address, phone number, postal address). All abstracts must be submitted in DOC, DOCX, or PDF format. Please check that your file opens properly. Abstracts not submitted in one of these formats, or that cannot be opened, will not be considered. Please title your file in English with this format: your Surname Given name iscpaar2024, for example, Bin Song iscpaar2024.docx

All themes related to Chinese philosophy are welcome. However, accepted abstracts that closely align with the AAR conference’s major themes, such as philosophy of religion, religious studies, theology, and spirituality, may attract a broader audience.

Please submit the abstract in one email addressed to Professor Bin Song (bsong2@washcoll.edu), ISCP Liaison to AAR, by June 17.

General inquiries should be sent to this address as well.

Communication of acceptance or non-acceptance of submissions will be sent by June 30.
