CFP: PSS-ISA Joint Conference, 2013, Budapest, Hungary

This is a reminder of the upcoming August 31st, 2012 deadline for proposals submissions to the Peace Science Society/ISA joint conference in Budapest, Hungary. The conference will be held at Corvinus University from June 27-29th, 2013. Proposals are being accepted through the MyISA system. This conference will explore the numerous security challenges states face today both domestically and globally and how these challenges influence interstate conflict, civil war, and peaceful conflict management practices. Three distinct phenomena form the backdrop of this conference: climate change, the global financial crisis, and the revolutionary awakening across the Middle East region. Each of these developments carries the potential to destabilize societies and cause widespread human suffering. More broadly, the conference seeks to engage dialogue on conflict and conflict management research to understand how states are responding to shifts in the global security environment.
