ESPAnet conferences attempt to stimulate exchange among scholars in the field of European social policy analysis and to promote inter- and multi-disciplinary approaches. The 17th Annual ESPAnet Conference 2019 focuses on Social Citizenship, Migration and Conflict - Equality and opportunity in European welfare states.
The conference provides a forum to address theoretical and methodological questions, to reflect on inter-and multi-disciplinarity in social policy research and to discuss novel analytical trends. It will also deal with changing paradigms in the concept, and in the actual configuration, of social policies in Europe. It will ask whether there are shifts in underlying basic principles, ideas or objectives, which factors might drive such changes and what directions this might indicate for the future of social policies in Europe. The conference is open to those active in social policy research and welcomes contributions from all relevant disciplines. The conference will be organised with the following 28 streams to which we invite abstracts.
Further information on Stream Topics is available on the Conference website.
