October 24, 2008
Visions
of Women’s Leadership
Sponsored by the Holloran Center for Ethical
Leadership, St. Thomas School of Law
Call for papers on the following topics:
-
What is the feminine genius and how can its
existence be verified?
-
Within which philosophical or theological categories
can it be included?
-
What is the role of the feminine genius in
the world?
-
What
is its relationship to the complementarity
of men and women?
-
Should the feminine genius be more explicitly
enlisted in the effort to make life more “human” for
all, and if so, how?
-
What are the indispensable contributions of
women?
We invite papers that treat these questions
in relation to both their philosophical and
theological foundations and in light of five
categories that, according to scholar Michael
Schuck, emerge in a historical study of the
Catholic Social Tradition: the religious, political,
familial, economic, and cultural dimensions
of community life. In addition, we are interested
in papers that investigate the public policy
implications that follow from these categories
and that reflect on the ways that women can
make a particular and concrete contribution
to the pursuit of the common good.
