From: On Behalf Of Hannes Stephan
Dear all,
Having been a co-organiser of the 2010 Summer School, I can thoroughly
recommend it. Please consider forwarding this call to your PhD students and
post-docs.
Traditionally, summer schools have also attracted a genuinely international
crowd, including participants from North America.
Hannes
European Consortium for Political Research (ECPR) and Keele University
* PhD Summer School on Environmental Politics and Policy *
17-28 June 2013 at Keele University, United Kingdom ST5 5BG
This will be the sixth occasion that the ECPR's Environmental Politics
Standing Group has run a Summer School. The previous Schools were at Keele
in 2001, Lulea in 2002, and Keele again in 2006, 2008 and 2010.
The aim of the Summer School is to give 20 PhD students, or new postdoctoral
researchers, working in the field of environmental politics and policy the
opportunity to network and to discuss their research with colleagues from
other universities and research institutes.
Teaching is organised across five broad themes:
- Green political theory
- International relations of the environment
- Environment and global political economy
- Green movements and parties
- Public policy and the environment
Ten taught sessions will be given by leading academics from European
universities.
Confirmed speakers (to date) include Andrew Dobson, Marcel Wissenburg, Jenny
Pickerill, Andrew Jordan, John Vogler, Chukwumerije Okereke, Christopher
Bailey, Hayley Stevenson, and Paul Lucardie.
The programme is still being developed and we hope to post it on our website
in February.
