EUROS Conference - 'Contract and Domination'

CONTRACT AND DOMINATION - A Conference on the new book by Carole Pateman and Charles Mills
15-16 November 2007, Cardiff School of European Studies

Speakers: Carole Pateman (Cardiff) Charles W. Mills, (Northwestern), Terry Rees (Cardiff), Tariq
Modood (Bristol), Judith Squires (Bristol), Paul Kelly (LSE), Nirmal Puwar (Goldsmiths), Terrell
Carver (Bristol), David Boucher (Cardiff), Steve Garner (UWE), Mike Cole (Bishop Grosseteste
University College Lincoln).

The conference brings together Carole Pateman ‘The Sexual Contract’ (1988) and Charles Mills,
‘The Racial Contract’ (1997). The aim of this conference is to explore the implications of
their major new publication, ‘Contract and Domination’ for our understanding of and thinking
about issues of race and gender in relation to the social contract tradition, and to intrude them
more centrally into the debates surrounding contract theory, and to explore in what ways it may be
modified, or indeed rendered obsolete. The conference is multidisciplinary and of interest to
philosophers, political theorists, race/gender theorists, sociologists and policy practitioners.
