This July, scholars of political economy will gather in Montreal just prior to the Society for the Advancement of Socio-Economics (SASE) annual conference. In the spirit of fostering community and generating interdisciplinary discussion, the LPE Collective invites scholars to network, share their research, and receive feedback over an afternoon workshop to be held at McGill University’s Faculty of Law.
We welcome faculty, students, and emerging scholars interested in presenting their work to submit a 200-500 word abstract with title by Monday, June 2. Click Here to submit an abstract. We are especially interested in soliciting abstracts that breach disciplinary lines involving law, economics, politics, history, and sociology. Scholars and others who are interested in participating as commentators are also invited to attend by letting us know at appeal@politicaleconomylaw.org
Workshop leaders will include Leanna Katz, Eric George, and Martha McCluskey.
We encourage proposals and projects at every stage of their development; completed papers are not necessary at the time of the workshop. If you are unsure if your proposal fits the submission guidelines, please do not hesitate to contact the organizers at appeal@politicaleconomylaw.org.
The event will be followed by an opportunity to gather for drinks and dinner together at nearby location to be determined.
*If you are interested in presenting or attending, please note that, while the workshop is free of charge, we are unfortunately unable to provide support for travel, lodging, or dinner.
