Following on from last year's highly successful inaugural event, we are pleased to announce the second annual Warwick Business School International Summer School on Practice-Based Studies.
This year's School is taking place from 1-5 September on the University of Warwick campus, Coventry, UK. Working in collaboration with the International Symposium Series on Process Organization Studies (PROS), the School is envisioned as a key international forum for the study, development and promotion of practice-based studies in organization, administrative and policy sciences. For its second edition, themed 'How to conduct practice-based studies in social and organizational research', the School aims to engage a limited number of 'advanced studies' participants who have some familiarity with the practice approach and are interested in further exploring this topic in a multidisciplinary, inclusive and open setting. Confirmed faculty for this year's edition include Theodore Schatzki (University of Kentucky, USA), Barbara Czarniawska (University of Gothenburg, Sweden), Jorgen Sandberg (The University of Queensland, Australia), Silvia Gherardi (University of Trento, Italy) and Michel Anteby (Harvard Business School, USA). The School is directed by Davide Nicolini, Maja Korica and Hari Tsoukas, and supported by a Scientific Advisory Committee that includes some of the most prominent scholars in the field (for full list, please see the website).
Abstracts should be submitted to dawn.coton@wbs.ac.uk no later than 9 May 2014. For further information, please visit the School website: http://warwick.ac.uk/isspbs
We look forward to hearing from you.
