The Psychology and Social Justice conference brings together researchers whose work focuses on social justice issues, including racial and ethnic prejudice and stereotyping, institutional and governmental procedures and outcomes, low status and minority group membership, and economic and social inequity. These issues are theoretically important and socially relevant, allow for an interdisciplinary perspective, and have direct and broad implications for socially pressing concerns. We encourage the participation of faculty and graduate students from other academic disciplines, and hope to engender discussion and dialogue among academic researchers and practitioners in the field of social justice. The conference consists of talks by faculty and graduate students, as well as discussion sessions designed to create a collaborative environment in which people can share ideas and concerns. The 2008 Psychology and Social Justice (PASJ) Conference will be held on Saturday, April 19th 2008 in New York, NY at The New School for Social Research. The PASJ Conference provides an opportunity for researchers to gather and spend a full day focusing on recent developments in the field. This year again the PASJ Conference features a terrific line-up of speakers – see the program in the section "Schedule" on this website. We will start at 8.30am (sorry!) and finish at 5.30 with a poster session and a wine and cheese reception. Please see the various links for submissions, registration, etc.. For other information we can be reached at pasj2008@gmail.com > Call for Papers < We are currently accepting submissions from faculty and graduate students from fields such as Sociology, Psychology, History, Law, Anthropology, Philosophy, and Political Science. We look forward to seeing you in New York. The organizers:
