A significant number of scholars have already expressed interest in presenting papers, but we still have a few openings. Thus, if you are a scholar and interested in presenting a paper and/or serving as a discussant, please contact me (602-820-5343 and peterhaworth@me.com) as soon as possible.

The conference is also open to all who are interested in attending. There might be a modest fee for non-presenters, but this has not (yet) been determined. Please contact me at peterhaworth@me.com if you want to attend, and I will keep you abreast of the conference details as they develop.

Best Regards,

Peter Haworth

My name is Peter Haworth, and I am an independent scholar living in Phoenix, Arizona. I received my Ph.D. in Government from Georgetown University in 2008, and I am currently working on various writing projects in American Political Thought. My interests include American Political Development, Traditionalist Thought, Constitutional Law, Southern Americana, Virtue Ethics, Natural Law, Political Theology, and many other topics within the history of political theory. With me in Phoenix is my darling wife, Mrs. Elizabeth Puckett Haworth of Columbus, Mississippi and our son, Peter Randolph Augustine Haworth. My hobbies include voracious reading, minimal gun collecting, and dreaming about our future farm that might be located somewhere in beautiful Mississippi.
