LIBERTARIANSCHOLARS CONFERENCE 10.20.18T H E K I N G ’ S C O L L E G E | N E W Y O R K C I T Y

The Libertarian Scholars Conference (� rst held in 1972) was originally conceived as a forum for scholars from di� erent disciplines to meet and exchange ideas on the study of liberty. The ultimate goal was to integrate their diverse insights and approaches into a broad interdisciplinary perspective on liberty, what Murray Rothbard called “the discipline of liberty.” The founders of the conference hoped that this discipline or systematic body of knowledge would give shape and direction to the growing ideological movement of modern libertarianism.

The libertarian movement has grown tremendously and so has the need for intellectual guidance from experts in the social sciences and humanities, whose several disciplines help elucidate the nature of human liberty and its importance in nurturing and sustaining the social order that permits human civilization to � ourish.

With this in mind, the Mises Institute, as heir to the Center for Libertarian Studies, is reviving the Libertarian Scholars Conference, which will take place on Saturday, October 20, 2018, in New York City, the site of the � rst conference.

Call for Papers Proposals for individual papers, complete paper sessions or symposia are encouraged. Papers should be well developed, but at a stage where they can still bene� t from the group’s discussion. Preference will be given to recent research papers that are intended for submission to scholarly journals and have not been given at major conferences. All topics related to libertarian themes in the social sciences and humanities are welcome. Abstracts should be limited to 750 words. All proposals are peer reviewed by the Libertarian Scholars Conference Program Committee.

Submit your proposal to paperslsc@mises.org by August 27, 2018. Proposals after the deadline will be considered as space permits. Decisions will be communicated by September 1.
