Call for Papers

The Psychology and Social Justice Conference is an annual national research-oriented gathering of faculty and graduate students whose work focuses on social justice. The conference will feature a keynote address by Russell Hardin (New York University, Political Science) and invited talks by distinguished scholars including John Darley (Princeton, Psychology) and Scott Atran (University of Michigan, Anthropology). We invite submissions addressing a wide range of issues in social justice research including (but not limited to) prejudice and stereotyping, legal and governmental procedures and outcomes, low status and minority group membership, and economic and social inequity.

Social justice research is by necessity a multidisciplinary affair and PASJ typically includes presentations from faculty and graduate students from a wide range of disciplines including psychology, sociology, anthropology, political science, and law as well as by practitioners and policy makers.

PASJ 2008 will run from 8:30 a.m. - 5:30 p.m. on Saturday, April 19th, 2008, followed by a reception. There will be a keynote address, talks by distinguished scholars, and several student speakers. An all-day poster session will take place in parallel. Refreshments and food will be provided to allow attendees to stay in the conference space during breaks for networking and discussion.

To submit, please go to the section "Submissions" on this website and fill out the Submission Form.

The conference is organized by Social and Political Psychology students and faculty at the New School for Social Research. For questions and more information please email: pasj2008@gmail.com
