About this event
The Southwestern Philosophical Society is an association of scholars founded in 1936 that provides a forum for philosophical research. While SWPS originally served philosophers in the American Southwest, it is today an international society. The Society is proud of its pluralism and its tradition of openness, where scholars from diverse backgrounds and of all major philosophical traditions find their views and styles taken seriously.
Respectful and spirited conversation is the Society’s path to healthy philosophical practice. The Society is especially interested in nurturing younger philosophers from all traditions and methodologies as they explore the issues that will motivate their thinking in their early careers. The Society sponsors two awards to that end, Travel Grants and the Presidential Award. More here.
El Paso Community College - Valle Verde Campus in El Paso, Texas from Friday, November 13 to Saturday, November 14, 2026.
All papers accepted and presented at the conference will be published in volume 43, issue 1 of Southwest Philosophy Review.
