The workshop is intended as an arena for presentation of ongoing research. Our aim is to bring together researchers from the humanities, (constitutional) law and social sciences, and the workshop provides an excellent opportunity to develop new research networks across disciplines and faculty borders.
Please contact Jörgen Hermansson (Uppsala University) and Bjørn Erik Rasch (University of Oslo) if you like to propose a paper. The deadline for paper proposals is 10 May 2014, but we may accept proposals also after this date. There will be no registration fees. Lunches (Monday and Tuesday), a workshop dinner (Monday) and accommodation will be covered. Unless otherwise agreed, participants are expected to take care of their own travel expenses.
We have reserved a number of rooms at Akademihotellet in Uppsala for workshop participants. Please contact Jörgen Hermansson about accomodation.
