IPSA Conference: Is There a European Model of Governance?
The International Political Science Association (IPSA) is proud to co-host its latest international conference with the newly formed Luxembourg Political Science Association (Luxpol) and the European Governance program at the University of Luxembourg. The title of the bilingual (english and french) conference is “Is There a European Model of Governance?” and the general theme is European Governance.
This conference will take place from March 18 to 20, 2010, and will attempt to answer the question:
Is There a European Model of Governance? A Comparative Perspective
European integration has led to the ongoing building of an original model of governance that needs to be assessed and compared with other regional integrations; the impact of European integration on member states and neighboring countries (regarding public policies, law-making processes, political institutions and actors in general) calls for comparative research; triggered by or independent from European integration, new forms of governance (including political participation, delegation, decision-making, evaluation) that emerged in European countries also need to be studied; finally, the building of an original European model of governance may call into question theoretical and methodological approaches usually adopted in political science research.
Scholars and researchers are invited to submit paper proposals (abstracts) in English or French.
The deadline for proposal submissions is Sunday, November 15, 2009. Only online submissions will be accepted. Late submissions will not be considered.
