2010 REPI Workshop on "Issue-Linkages and Regime Complexities"
Organized by: REPI (Recherche et Enseignement en Politique International, Universite libre de Bruxxelles)
*All participants will have their transportation and hotel paid*
Deadline for submitting a proposal to repi@ulb.ac.be: Tuesday, 15 December 2009.
International politics have been handled by a growing number of
international regimes, in extended issue areas such as international
economy, security, migration, or the environment. While these regimes
were initially meant to address specific issues, their scope have been
extended, creating what has been described as "regime complex", "regime
interplay", or "overlapping regimes". As a consequence, human rights
issues are discussed at the WTO, climate change at the IMF, and gender
at the Security Council. The 2010 REPI Workshop will explore the causes
and consequences of issue-linkages and regime-complexes.
REPI Workshops have a unique format. As opposed to usual conferences,
the number of participants is strictly limited, full papers are
distributed long before the event, and authors speak only at the
closure of discussions. We believe this format favors intellectual
exchanges, critical thinking and constructive contributions. REPI
Workshops are an opportunity to receive detailed feedback on ongoing
research projects and an informal setting for scholars to exchange
ideas and to get acquainted.
