Dear NAKS members,
It has been brought to our attention that the submission form for the NAKS senior scholar prize contained some errors, including the publication dates for eligible papers. We want to make sure that all who are eligible for the prize have the opportunity to be considered. We are therefore sending (below) a corrected call for submissions for the Allison Prize and extending the deadline until August 24.
We sincerely apologize for any confusion or inconvenience this may have caused.

2026 Henry Allison Senior Scholar Prize: Call for Submissions (corrected version)
The North American Kant Society is pleased to issue a call for submissions for the Henry Allison Senior Scholar Prize. We invite ARTICLE submissions for the 2026 Senior Scholar Prize for articles published in 2024 or 2025 until August 20, 2026.
For the 2026 prize, we will consider any paper with the publication date of 2024 or 2025. This can refer either to an “online first” publication or to the final print version.
In addition to accolades, the winner will receive an honorary prize of $300.
Eligibility rules:
· Only single-authored articles or monographs written in English will be considered.
· Only one submission per author is allowed. (Submitting more than one paper will lead to disqualification.)
· The author must be a Senior scholar by the year the article or monograph in question was published. “Senior” is defined as: “10 years beyond the official receipt of the Ph.D. or most advanced degree," regardless of employment status or age.
· Authors must be members of NAKS at the time of submission.
· Members of the current NAKS Executive Committee, sub-committees, Board of Trustees, and prior winners are not eligible to compete for the prize.
