Second Call for abstracts Open invitation to the INOGOV WORKSHOP: Climate Change Policy and Governance: Initiation, Experimentation, Evaluation 12-13 March 2015, Helsinki
This workshop takes a fresh look at what can be learned from experiments and attempts at experimentation in the context of climate change governance. The focus is on experimenting as a broader societal/governance phenomenon and on the ways experiments materialize and challenge existing policies, practices and regulatory systems. This fully funded workshop encourages exploration of experiments from many different angles with the aim to catalyse thinking about experiments, processes of experimentation and the use of experiments. It is expected to bring together new empirical and theoretical analyses. The workshop welcomes theoretical papers, methodological papers, conceptual and empirical studies or combinations thereof. The aim is to eventually publish the contributions presented at the workshop, subject to normal review process, as a Special Volume in a suitable journal. Practicalities and Funding The workshop will be funded under the 4 year COST Action INOGOV (IS1309 Innovations in Climate Governance: Sources, Patterns and Effects) (2014-8). INOGOV will cover reasonable travel costs and accommodation of all invited authors, subject to standard COST reimbursement and eligibility rules. Interested participants/authors are encouraged to submit 1000 word abstracts by November 30th 2014 as a first step towards full paper development. Authors will be notified of acceptance/rejection by December 15th 2014 and authors selected to contribute to the workshop will receive funding to cover costs of participation. Contributing authors are expected to submit a full first draft of the paper by February 26th 2015 which will be distributed to all workshop participants.
