Very interesting and relevant workshop, focusing on the enemylines: Begin forwarded message: *From:* Phoebe Moore <[email protected]> *Date:* 5 Jun 2014 11:22:46 GMT+2 *To:* [email protected] *Subject:* *[BISA-IPEG] 'Transnational Elites in Hybrid Networks' call for expression of interest* *Reply-To:* Phoebe Moore <[email protected]> Call for Expressions of Interest - 'Transnational Elites in Hybrid Networks', September 11-12 2014, Copenhagen Business School Organised by Bastiaan van Apeldoorn (VU University Amsterdam) and Leonard Seabrooke (Copenhagen Business School) This workshop examines various methods for tracing policy and economic elites who operate within and across transnational governance networks across a range of issue areas. The hybrid character of these networks is not only characterised by a mix of firm, transgovernmental, and NGO interests, but also by the capacity of particular actors to move across these networks as brokers and gatekeepers. The workshop will focus on Social Network Analysis and Sequence Analysis as two key methods in the study of elites. Other methods may also be brought into the discussion, as it is often the combination of different methods that allows us to better grasp the constitution of these networks as well as how they affect (policy) outcomes. In the spirit of methodological pluralism, and from within and across different (meta-)theoretical traditions and disciplinary approaches, this workshop seeks to achieve an open exchange of ideas regarding related methodological issues in the analysis of elite networks. Organised around the format of short research memos that will outline how the workshop participants have applied these methods to their own cases, we will discuss the pros and cons and difficulties that may arise in studying elite networks. Such issues include, among others, how to measure centrality in networks, correct coding for sequences, practical issues with software, etc. Those intending to use these methods may also be interested in the workshop. The aim of the workshop is, above all, to learn from each other's experiences, get fresh ideas about how other methods may complement our own, and generally improve our understanding of how elite power works. The workshop is restricted to 14 participants. Those attending are expected to cover their own travel costs. Otherwise the workshop is supported by the new 'HYNET: Hybrid Networks in Transnational Governance' grant in the Department of Business and Politics at the Copenhagen Business School, directed by Len Seabrooke.
