The Communitarian Essay Contest
The Communitarian Network invites you to participate in The Communitarian Essay Contest on communitarian thinking!
Prizes: First prize, $10,000; second prize, $5,000; and third prize, $2,500.
Deadline: December 31, annually.
Winners will be announced by March 15 of the following year.
Judges: Daniel Bell, Hans Joas, and Amitai Etzioni.
Eligible: All who are not employees of the Communitarian Network or members of their families.
Essays
may deal with philosophical, sociological, or other elements of
communitarian thinking. Contestants are free to explore matters
concerning theory or specific policies issues on the local, national,
or transnational levels. However, it is required that contestants delve
into communitarian thinking, especially of the responsive communitarian
kind. Communitarian thinking must be evident throughout the essay; it
should nurture and guide the analysis rather then be mentioned in the
introduction and conclusion or only evoked occasionally. Essays
critical of communitarian thinking are as likely to win a prize as
those that seek to augment this line of work or show that its
application leads to new insights, public policies, or normative
positions.
The essays must be original. NO parts of them can
have been previously published or be under consideration for
publication elsewhere.
The Communitarian Network reserves the right to publish the winning essays.
The
Communitarian Network also reserves the right not to award any prizes
if the essays received are deemed not to meet the standards set by the
Communitarian Network. However, in such a case the prizes will be added
to the prizes available in future rounds of the same contest.
