DVPW Congress 2018 | Call for Papers | Panel “Food Democracy. Die Repolitisierung eines Politikfelds“
As part of the 27th Science Congress (September 25-28 2018) hosted by the German Political Science Association (DVPW), Dr. Sandra Schwindenhammer is going to arrange the panel “Food Democracy. Die Repolitisierung eines Politikfelds“ along with Prof. Dr. Peter H. Feindt (Humboldt University of Berlin) and Prof. Dr. Jale Tosun (Heidelberg University), friendly supported by the DVPW working group “Umweltpolitik/Global Change”.
The aim of this panel is to incorporate Food Security as well as Food Policy as a fundamental, although often latent category of Democracy Policy in the agenda of German political science.
In their contributions, the organizers will continue investigation lines that were recently published in a Special Issue in the Journal of European Public Policy 11/2017. Furthermore, they invite lectures that contribute to the objectives of the panel and its five guiding themes. In line with the board of the DVPW, the organizers would also like to offer young scientists the opportunity to participate in the DVPW event. It is also desirable that more women participate actively in the Congress. Suggestions from young scientists and women are therefore very welcome.
Please send your suggestion for a presentation (abstract of 300-400 words as a pdf file) by January 31 2018 to: Sandra.Schwindenhammer@sowi.uni-giessen.de
