CfP: Conflict of Interest in CE and EE
posted by Katalin Teller 15 years ago
Conflict of interest (COI) is usually understood quite broadly as a social phenomenon related to corruption, lobbying, nepotism, patronage, clientelism or the activity of informal networks of power. What are the current expressions of conflicts of interest in various spheres of social life in Central and Eastern Europe - politics, economy, science? What approaches to COI social sciences should apply? Why does COI often remain an unexplored issue? In what ways are scientists, including social scientists themselves, involved in various conflicts of interest, such as ‘rent-seeking’ activities?
Conference date: 25-27 August, 2010, Torun (Poland). Deadline for submissions: May 31, 2010.
