*** Call for Proposals *** Rhetoric and Economics: An Interdisciplinary Conference Millikin University, Decatur, Illinois June 6 - 9, 2005 The twentieth anniversary of Deirdre McCloskey's The Rhetoric of Economics offers an opportunity for both rhetoric and economics scholars to assess the status of McCloskey's claims and the potential for interaction between the two disciplines. The conference's aim is to provoke conversations both within each disciplinary framework -- rhetoricians talking to rhetoricians, and economists to economists -- and between the disciplines, to explore what each might learn from the other. The online submission and preliminary registration process is open until January 31, 2005.
