The four sub-themes at the 33rd EGOS Colloquium 2017 that deal with institutional theory have joined their forces and are arranging a Pre-Colloquium Development Workshop (PDW), in which young scholars will be able to discuss their papers in a developmental environment and get feedback from senior members of the community. – These four sub-themes are:
Sub-theme 30: “Inequality, Institutions and Organizations”
Sub-theme 56: “Institutional Theory: Taking Stock and Retooling”
Sub-theme 57: “The Multiplicity of Institutional Logics”
Sub-theme 58: “Projects, Organizations and Institutions”
Purpose
This
PDW offers the opportunity for scholars who work within the wide tent of institutional theory to engage in discussion, and
to present and develop their ongoing work through extensive feedback by leading researchers of the field.
The
PDW will include round tables (presentation of papers by young scholars and extensive discussions and feedback), as well as
a panel discussion. We invite original work, both empirical and conceptual.
Application
This
PDW is mainly targeted at early career researchers and doctoral students, but is also open to all scholars. However, preference
will be given to PhD and early career scholars.
Please submit – via the EGOS website! – a single document
of application (.doc, .docx or .pdf file) that includes:
On the first page: a short letter of application containing full details of name, address (postal address, phone and email), affiliation (date of PhD completion for early career scholars), a statement of why the applicant considers it valuable to attend the workshop as well as an indication of what journal(s) the paper is likely to be submitted to.
A full paper that you want to develop to a publishable stage.
