15th Annual International Conference: Promoting Business Ethics
To be held at the Manhattan campus of St. John's University, New York
October 22, 2008 - October 24, 2008 12:00 PM - 4:00 PM
Manhattan Campus
Business Ethics: Back to Basics
Sponsored by The Vincentian Universities in the United States
- DePaul University
- Niagara University
- St. John's University
The annual international conference promoting business ethics encourages a very broad-based approach to the discussion of ethical theory and practice and seeks contributions to that discussion from business and academic professionals who are promoting business ethics through:
- traditional business disciplines of accounting, finance, marketing, advertising, management, risk management, actuarial science
- related areas of interest: philosophy, theology, psychology, sociology and language arts
In addition to the general theme for keynote and plenary sessions, the conference is organized in broad topical areas based on proposed submissions. Formal academic sessions are interspersed with panel discussions, interactive conversations, keynote addresses and debates for dynamic participation among the conference attendees.
This is an opportunity for both contribution and growth throughout the formal and informal sessions. We anticipate critical discussion within this congenial conference setting.
Format for Proposals
We are looking for business professionals and academics who have an interest in business ethics (in its broadest and widest sense) to submit formal proposals. Final proposals will be selected through a blind referee process.
We require only a one page proposal, or an abstract. We will also need information to contact you (mailing address, e-mail address, phone and fax numbers). We invite proposals that:
- reflect timely, cutting-edge insight
- represent collaboration between academic professionals and business professionals (including practical case studies)
Since we will be facilitating the publication of select conference manuscripts, we expect the highest research quality and/or greatest business application from all papers.
E-mail proposals before May 15, 2008, to:
Patrick Flanagan, C.M.
