Call for Papers
Third Annual Conference on Environmental Politics & Governance
June 21-24, 2017
Bloomington, Indiana
Hosted by Indiana University’s School of Public and Environmental Affairs
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Dear Colleagues:
Indiana University's School of Public and Environmental Affairs, with support
from the School of Global and International Studies, the Ostrom Workshop’s
Program on Governance of Natural Resources, and the Integrated Program in the
Environment, will host the Third Annual Conference on Environmental Politics &
Governance in Bloomington, Indiana on June 21-24, 2017. The deadline for
submitting paper proposals is December 16, 2016.
Objectives:
The 2017 conference builds on the success of the 2015 conference in Seattle,
Washington and the 2016 conference in Gerzensee, Switzerland. These annual
conferences aim to showcase outstanding scholarship on Environmental Politics &
Governance, provide a venue for scholars to present their research, strengthen
their network, and shape future Environmental Politics & Governance research
across the social sciences via theoretically informed, methodologically
rigorous empirical work. We hope this and subsequent conferences will motivate
Environmental Politics & Governance scholars to advance theoretical insights,
work with generalizable theories, and use appropriate empirical methods and
data.
The 2017 conference will be held at Indiana University’s Bloomington campus at
the School of Public and Environmental Affairs’ brand new Paul H. O’Neill
Graduate Center. Nested in the rolling landscape of Southern Indiana, the
Bloomington campus is ranked among the most beautiful campuses in the United
States. Many of its buildings are constructed with the famed Indiana limestone,
used in buildings in Washington, DC and elsewhere around the world.
For additional information on the conference, Bloomington, and Indiana
University, please visit the conference website. You may also email David
Konisky (
dkonisky@indiana.edu) with any questions.
Logistics:
The Environmental Politics & Governance conferences provide a venue for
intensive and high quality interactions. Consequently, the steering committee
has decided to limit the size of the conference to about 30 papers. As in
previous meetings, paper proposals will be reviewed by an international
steering committee (see below) via a double-blind review process.
There is no conference registration fee, and the sponsors will cover
accommodation and food expenses for one author per accepted paper. (Note:
Conference participants are responsible for making their own travel
arrangements.)
Participants should plan to arrive by late afternoon on Wednesday, June 21,
2017 and to leave on the morning of Saturday, June 24, 2017. Commitment to
attend the conference for its entire duration is essential.
Submission Process:
Paper proposals should consist of electronic submission of a PDF file that
includes a detailed abstract of 1,000 words that outlines the research
question, theory, data, and methods along with the contributions to the
evolving field of Environmental Politics & Governance. We will consider
works-in-progress only. Please do not submit published, forthcoming, or
accepted work.
To submit your paper proposal, please go to the conference website.
