Call for Proposals
The 2021 Annual Environmental Politics and Governance Conference
Time and place: June 24–June 27, 2021, Voksenåsen hotel,
Oslo<https://voksenaasen.no/>
https://www.sv.uio.no/isv/english/research/news-and-events/events/2021/epg2021/index.html
The University of Oslo will host the 7th Annual Environmental Politics and
Governance Conference on June 24-27, 2021, building on the success of previous
conferences <https://depts.washington.edu/envirpol/?page_id=1542> in Seattle,
Zurich/Gerzensee, Bloomington, Stockholm, and Santa Barbara as well as the 2020
online
conference<https://www.sv.uio.no/isv/english/research/news-and-events/events/2020/epg2020/>.
We call for proposals for papers that address important or innovative research
with rigorous quantitative or qualitative research designs in all areas of
environmental politics and governance. The conference aims to showcase the best
empirical research on environmental politics and governance from across
relevant disciplines and to provide a venue for scholars to strengthen their
networks and shape future research directions.
It is probably fair to say that some previous EPG conferences have attracted
more quantitative than qualitative papers and more papers focusing on domestic
policy or politics than papers addressing international issues. Hoping to
obtain a balanced set of papers at the 2021 conference, we particularly
encourage submission of proposals using a qualitative approach and of proposals
focusing on international issues. We emphasize, however, that quality will
remain the principal selection criterion.
Format
The conference will consist of presentations and discussions in a single
plenary session. We will accept proposals for standard research papers, as well
as for research designs or pre-analysis plans of ambitious projects that
involve primary data collection and that will be implemented in the near future.
The conference will feature a maximum of 32 papers/project plans. All
submissions will be double-blind reviewed by members of the international
steering committee. The conference chairs will rely on these reviews when
deciding on the final program, with additional attention paid to representing
the breadth of approaches and topics on the program. Please note that proposals
submitted or co-authored by members of the international steering committee
will undergo the exact same procedure. Participants are expected to provide
written comments on two other papers before the start of the conference.
Submission Process
Paper proposals should consist of electronic submission of an anonymous PDF
file with a detailed abstract (of no more than 1,000 words) outlining the
research question, theory, data, and methods, along with the contributions to
the field of environmental politics and governance. The abstract may include
one table or figure, as appropriate. We will consider works in progress only.
Please do not submit published, forthcoming, or accepted work. Proposals should
be submitted to <epg-conf2...@stv.uio.no<mailto:epg-conf2...@stv.uio.no>> with
the subject “EPG Proposal”. Please list the author(s) in the body of the email
submission.
