CFP: Annual Convention of the Italian Political Science Association

The organizers invite proposals for the Annual Convention of the Italian Political Science Association, 12-14 September 2013, Florence, Italy. The convention theme is: Challenges to the Current World Order. The overarching objective of the Convention is not only to map the challenges to the current world order but also to understand the destructive potential of these challenges. In addition, in an attempt to better define the interconnectedness of the current world order and Western leadership, the meeting aims to understand whether some of these challenges may be destructive for the world order per se or only for US (and to lesser extent European) leadership. Thus, the organizers welcomes panels and papers employing both qualitative and quantitative methods of research and without geographic limitations. In the case of panel proposals indication of up to five papers is encouraged, however, not required at this stage. Please send your panel proposals by 1 March 2013 to program chairs at nelli.babayan@fu-berlin.de and stefano.braghiroli@ut.ee. Please see the convention website for more information.
