Initial Announcement and Tentative Speakers
Dear friends, colleagues, & fellow travelers,
Before the year 2010 ends – here is the first announcement regarding the next, 2011 Property and Freedom Society gathering at the Karia Princess Hotel in Bodrum, Turkey.
The conference will begin with a reception on Thursday night, May 26, 2011, followed by three full conference days and a Grand Banquet and Special Celebration on Sunday night. It will end with our popular boating and swimming tour, on Monday night, May 30.
In the established tradition of the PFS, you can again expect a firework of uncompromising intellectual radicalism on a wide, inter- and trans-disciplinary range of topics, presented by an extraordinary line-up of speakers.
If you are planning to attend the 2011 PFS extravaganza, please write to me as soon as possible. Places are strictly limited, and I have already accepted quite a few reservations. If you have made previous reservations, please reconfirm.
With best wishes,
HHH
