** CALL FOR PAPERS **
 International and comparative perspectives on
social policy and economic crisis
06-07 July, 2009
 ICoSS, University of Sheffield, 219 Portobello, Sheffield, S1 4DP

A decade on from the 'Asian' financial crisis of 1997, the world economy 
entered into what has been called unchartered territory with the onset of a 
crisis of the financial system that started in the US housing loans system 
and spread outwards to other financial sectors and countries. This has 
taken place against the backdrop of existing global economic relations 
which include both fractured alliances and ossified inequalities and 
competition. The financial crisis is compounded by other global crises in 
food and fuel, that has hit the poorest the hardest in all countries. While 
the richest countries debate the idea of a global 'new deal', the coping 
strategies of the poorer and the poorest countries are taking many 
different directions which have direct implications for social policy. In 
the wake of these developments, this study day, organised by the 
International and Comparative Social Policy special interest group of the 
UK's Social Policy Association, aims to discuss:

"	Analyses of the impacts of the global economic crisis on social welfare;
"	Responses to the crisis with a particular focus on the international and 
comparative social policy dimensions and implications of these;
"	The role of local and national government as well as of world-regional 
associations and international organisations in responding to the crisis;

The study day will run lunchtime to lunchtime over the 6th-7th July and 
will include keynote speakers (Prof. Bob Deacon, Professor of International 
Social Policy, University of Sheffield (6th July) and Dr.?Armando 
Barrientos, Brooks World Poverty Institute, University of Manchester, 7th 
July) as well as presentations by attendees and discussion sessions. 
Drawing on presentations at the Study Day, the ICSP group plan to publish 
an edited collection with a reputable social policy publisher.

If you wish to present a paper or work in progress for discussion, please 
send a title and short abstract of no more than 150 words to 
[log in to unmask] by 5th June 2009. All abstracts should clearly 
indicate the author and full contact details.

Places are limited to 30 persons. With support from the UK Social Policy 
Association, the study day (including accommodation) is free and open to 
all but registration is required. Assistance with travel costs is available 
for a limited number of postgraduate students. Please submit requests for
