EU-SPRI 2018 Conference "Governance and Relevance: Towards a new generation of research and innovation policies" - 6-8 June 2018
*NEW DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS EUSPRI 2018 CONFERENCE — MARCH 4, 2018 !!* <br> <br>*Governance and Relevance:* <br> <br>*/Towards a new generation of research and innovation policies/* <br> <br>Paris - Champs-sur-Marne, ESIEE <br> <br>*6-8 June 2018* <br> <br>Website of the Conference : http://euspri2018.paris <br> <br> <br> <br>*Hosted by IFRIS <br> and <br>member units of IFRIS* <br> <br> <br>*SUBMISSIONS SHOULD BE DONE THROUGH EASYCHAIR.ORG <br> <br>* <br>https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=euspri2018 <br>** <br> <br>The conference builds on and deepens the directions proposed by the 2017 <br>Vienna EUSPRI conference <br> and <br>focuses on new practices and new policies for research and innovation. <br>These new challenges for the governance of STI policies also develop in <br>a context where impacts become a political leitmotiv, raising the issue <br>of the relevance of policy frames and approaches. <br> <br>*Five main themes for the conference* <br> <br>* /New governance/: the question about the governance of STI policy (new <br>players, new processes and new instruments) should be enlarged by <br>reopening the question of the continuing relevance of this amalgamation, <br>by discussing ‘policy mixes’, and by questioning the importance of the <br>context (in particular for non-OECD countries). <br> <br>* /New space of innovation policy/: the question of which conditions are <br>innovation policies framed and operated in a knowledge-based society ; <br>discussing the role of civil society organisations, the inclusion of <br>‘new’ values in innovation processes (focusing on RRI and <br>inclusiveness), and types of innovation other than S&T driven innovation. <br> <br>*/New understanding of globalization/: Re-eamine the multiple facets <br>and effects of the globalisation of knowledge and innovation, beyond the <br>dynamics of multinational firms : new geography of knowledge and <br>innovation; structural impacts of absolute advantages; new frames and <br>new non-governmental actors for regulating international trade; or new <br>non governmental actors supporting research. <br> <br>* /New challenges for renewed research orientations: /situate//the <br>debates on “societal challenges” in perspective with the historical <br>‘mission-oriented’ and ‘sectoral’ innovation policies, which have <br>developed todays’ portfolio of instruments. Examine the need for <br>systemic approaches, like in transition studies, dealing with climate <br>change and energy. How do similar approaches work with agricultural or <br>health challenges, and what types of transition dynamics are at stake <br>and what are their policy implications? <br> <br>/* Market, users, citizens: /The conference will offer the possibility <br>to deepen our knowledge of on-going citizen and user-driven economic and <br>societal changes coined by such ‘umbrella terms’ as DIY society, the <br>sharing economy, crowd sourcing or political consumption; and to discuss <br>their implications about the relation between societal change and <br>innovation and the potential implication for innovation policies. <br> <br>In each theme, we will focus on the need for original knowledge to <br>understand changes in the policy instruments and public policies, <br>focussing on the large diversity of phenomena and results and their <br>meaning as well as the roleof contexts. We also focus on methodologies, <br>relevant indicators, and research arrangements that allow to better <br>position, characterise and follow these on-going dynamics. Finally, <br>discussions are open on all important themes for the field, such as the <br>evaluation and impact of STI policies, innovation ecosystems, funding or <br>infrastructures. Open-ended sessions will be opened repsonding to the <br>needs of colleagues attending the Conference. <br> <br> <br> Submission Guidelines <br> <br>All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to a <br>journal or another conference. <br> <br>You can submit : <br> <br>* Presentation paper: Extended abstract (max 3,000 words) with a <br>description of a study or discussion topic that you would like to <br>present at the Conference <br> <br>* Poster: Abstract (max 1,500 words) indicating the main content of the <br>poster/study reported. We very much encourage posters. The Venue will <br>permit a very good series of posters sessions and they can be the <br>opportunity of very intense and intellectually stimulating exchanges. <br>Poster sessions will be given equal time than usual sessions and should <br>not be considered as second category. <br> <br>All proposals should be made through EasyChair.org <br> <br> <br>Easychair https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=euspri2018 <br> <br> <br>Selection will be made through peer reviewing. <br> <br>/The Committee reserves the right to assign a paper for a poster even if <br>the authors submitted for oral presentation./ <br> <br>We also welcome proposals for specific sessions or special tracks. <br> <br>IFRIS <br>, <br>the organiser of the conference, is dedicated to open access. All <br>colleagues that submit an abstract, engage also to make their <br>presentations accessible after the conference on the website of the <br>conference. <br> <br> <br> Contact <br> <br>All questions about submissions should be emailed to <br>contact@euspri2018.paris <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>http://ifris.org/ <br> <br>_______________________________________________ <br>EASST's Eurograd mailing list <br>Eurograd (at) lists.easst.net <br>Unsubscribe or edit subscription options: http://lists.easst.net/listinfo.cgi/eurograd-easst.net <br> <br>Meet us via https://twitter.com/STSeasst <br> <br>Report abuses of this list to Eurograd-owner@lists.easst.netview formatted text
