The 3rd Biennial Philosophy of Communication Conference will be held June 5–7, 2017,

The theme for this year’s conference centers on the Catholic Intellectual Tradition with keynote speakers addressing four content areas: (1) Philosophy of Communication and Narrative Ground, (2) Philosophy of Communication, History, and Institutions, (3) Philosophy of Communication and Community, and (4) Philosophy of Communication, Culture, and Mission.

As always, we also welcome papers outside of these content themes that address philosophy of communication.
