American Politics and Government Summit

or 

Are you a faculty member or graduate student looking for a place that honors academic debate and exchange in the pursuit and apprehension of truth?

Join us for ISI’s American Politics and Government Summit: a conference dedicated to bringing together scholars to participate in dialogue focused on emerging research—rooted in timeless principles—in the fields of politics, philosophy, and economics.

This conference will be held October 28-29, 2022 at ISI’s beautiful 20-acre campus. Unlike the echo chambers that suppress free inquiry and only permit the ideas of a coterie of experts, our campus will be the setting that inspires academic excellence.

At a time when far too many in academia are scared into silence through the instruments of political correctness and utopian ideology, the Intercollegiate Studies Institute will continue to provide a home for everyone in higher education where honest, intellectual discourse can thrive.

This will be a conference like no other. If you’re a faculty member or graduate student who is committed to the principles of ordered liberty, you owe it to yourself to attend.

Conferences like these have never been more important. Summit Sponsorships are a great way to help ISI continue our vital work.

The 2022 American Politics and Government Summit will bring together faculty and graduate students to explore ideas related to justice and the American regime.

The ISI American Politics and Government Summit invites contributions from across the disciplines as we explore the idea of justice and the American regime. Proposals for individual papers and panel discussions are welcome.

Examples of topics eligible for consideration include:

• Is America a just regime?
• What is America rightly understood?
• Is justice a virtue? If so, how is it related to other virtues?
• How is justice in America understood in relation to religious liberty, social justice, or economic justice?
• How is justice realized in local, state, and national contexts?
• How do definitions of justice affect the measures we undertake to achieve equality?
• What are the historical, literary, legal, philosophical, theological, and cultural understandings of justice and the American regime?

Proposals consisting of a title, all relevant authors, and and an abstract of no more than 500 words should be submitted by July 31, 2022.

Only papers submitted by faculty and graduate students will be considered.
